Fractals, complex shapes with structure at multiple scales, have long been observed in Nature: as symmetric fractals in plants and sea shells, and as statistical fractals in clouds, mountains and coastlines. With their highly polished…
We describe some recent results on the dimensions of linear projections of self-affine fractals, focusing in particular on an upper bound for the dimension of the projected image. We give a self-contained treatment of this bound and…
We study the spectrum of adjacency matrices of random graphs. We develop two techniques to lower bound the mass of the continuous part of the spectral measure or the density of states. As an application, we prove that the spectral measure…
We introduce a fractal dimension for a metric space defined in terms of the persistent homology of extremal subsets of that space. We exhibit hypotheses under which this dimension is comparable to the upper box dimension; in particular, the…
We prove a remarkable combinatorial symmetry in the number of spanning configurations in site percolation: for a large class of lattices, the number of spanning configurations with an odd or even number of occupied sites differs by $\pm 1$.…
Most of the known methods for estimating the fractal dimension of fractal sets are based on the evaluation of a single geometric characteristic, e.g. the volume of its parallel sets. We propose a method involving the evaluation of several…
A \emph{fractal} is an object exhibiting complexity at arbitrarily small scales. In order to study and characterise fractals, one is often interested in quantifying how they fill up space on small scales. This gives rise to various notions…
In this paper, we consider a regular tessellation of the Euclidean plane and the sequence of its geometric scalings by negative powers of a fixed integer. We generate iteratively random sets as the union of adjacent tiles from these…
Fractal geometry deals mainly with irregularity and captures the complexity of a structure or phenomenon. In this article, we focus on the approximation of set-valued functions using modern machinery on the subject of fractal geometry. We…
The fractal properties of four-dimensional Euclidean simplicial manifold generated by the dynamical triangulation are analyzed on the geodesic distance D between two vertices instead of the usual scale between two simplices. In order to…
We investigate through direct molecular mechanics calculations the geometrical properties of hydrocarbon mantles subjected to percolation disorder. We show that the structures of mantles generated at the critical percolation point have a…
The thesis deals with recognizing diffeomorphisms from fractal properties of discrete orbits, generated by iterations of such diffeomorphisms. The notion of fractal properties of a set refers to the box dimension, the Minkowski content and…
Random tessellations of the space represent a class of prototype models of heterogeneous media, which are central in several applications in physics, engineering and life sciences. In this work, we investigate the statistical properties of…
Random shapes arise naturally in many contexts. The topological and geometric structure of such objects is interesting for its own sake, and also for applications. In physics, for example, such objects arise naturally in quantum gravity, in…
Many natural systems show emergent phenomena at different scales, leading to scaling regimes with signatures of chaos at large scales and an apparently random behavior at small scales. These features are usually investigated quantitatively…
In this paper we study multi-parameter projection theorems for fractal sets. With the help of these estimates, we recover results about the size of $A \cdot A+...+A \cdot A$, where $A$ is a subset of the real line of a given Hausdorff…
The Assouad dimension of a metric space determines its extremal scaling properties. The derived notion of the Assouad spectrum fixes relative scales by a scaling function to obtain interpolation behaviour between the quasi-Assouad and…
We study natural measures on sets of beta-expansions and on slices through self similar sets. In the setting of beta-expansions, these allow us to better understand the measure of maximal entropy for the random beta-transformation and to…
Statistical mechanical systems at and near their points of phase transition are expected to exhibit rich, fractal-like behaviour that is independent of the small-scale details of the system but depends strongly on the dimension in which the…
We study the two-dimensional domain morphology of twisted nematic liquid crystals during their phase-ordering kinetics [R. A. L. Almeida, Phys. Rev. Lett. 131 (2023) 268101], which is a physical candidate to self-generate critical clusters…
