We study a particle system naturally associated to the $2$-dimensional Keller-Segel equation. It consists of $N$ Brownian particles in the plane, interacting through a binary attraction in $\theta/(Nr)$, where $r$ stands for the distance…

This was a long-standing question since 90-ies whether one-point intersection property for a self-similar set implies open set condition. We answer this question negatively. We give an example of a totally disconnected self-similar set…

This thesis generalizes the study of $C\cap(C + \alpha)$ where $C$ is the middle third Cantor set to self-affine sets in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. We present sufficient and necessary conditions for when the translation $\alpha$ produces a…

Horndeski models with a de Sitter critical point for any kind of material content may provide a mechanism to alleviate the cosmological constant problem. Moreover, they could allow us to understand the current accelerated expansion of the…

Let $\beta>1$. Define a class of similitudes \[S=\left\{f_{i}(x)=\dfrac{x}{\beta^{n_i}}+a_i:n_i\in \mathbb{N}^{+}, a_i\in \mathbb{R}\right\}.\] Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the collection of all the self-similar sets generated by the similitudes…

The scattering matrix $S$ obeys the unitary relation $S^\dagger S=1$ in a Hermitian system and the symmetry property ${\cal PT}S{\cal PT}=S^{-1}$ in a Parity-Time (${\cal PT}$) symmetric system. Here we report a different symmetry relation…

We consider a method of construction of self-similar dendrites on a plane and establish main topological and metric properties of resulting class of dendrites.

In this paper we give a complete characterization of those knotted toroidal sets that can be realized as attractors for both discrete and continuous dynamical systems globally defined in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We also see that the techniques used…

Let $q$ be a prime power and $k$ be a natural number. What are the possible cardinalities of point sets ${S}$ in a projective plane of order $q$, which do not intersect any line at exactly $k$ points? This problem and its variants have been…

The article contains a construction of a self-similar dendryte which cannot be the attractor of any self-similar zipper.

Given S_1, a finite set of points in the plane, we define a sequence of point sets S_i as follows: With S_i already determined, let L_i be the set of all the line segments connecting pairs of points of the union of S_1,...,S_i, and let…

We give sufficient conditions for two Cantor sets of the line to be nested for a positive set of translation parameters. This problem occurs in diophantine approximations. It also occurs as a toy model of the parameter selection for…

We study relations between transitivity, mixing and periodic points on dendrites. We prove that when there is a point with dense orbit which is not an endpoint, then periodic points are dense and there is a terminal periodic decomposition…

Let $K$ be the attractor of the following IFS $$\{f_1(x)=\lambda x, f_2(x)=\lambda x +c-\lambda,f_3(x)=\lambda x +1-\lambda\}, $$ where $f_1(I)\cap f_2(I)\neq \emptyset, (f_1(I)\cup f_2(I))\cap f_3(I)=\emptyset,$ and $I=[0,1]$ is the convex…

We consider linear iterated function systems (IFS) with a constant contraction ratio in the plane for which the "overlap set" $\Ok$ is finite, and which are "invertible" on the attractor $A$, the sense that there is a continuous surjection…

Motivated by a path planning problem we consider the following procedure. Assume that we have two points $s$ and $t$ in the plane and take $\mathcal{K}=\emptyset$. At each step we add to $\mathcal{K}$ a compact convex set that does not…

Let $C$ be the attractor of the IFS $\{f_{d}(z) = (-n+i)^{-1}(z+d): d\in D\}$, $D\subset\{0, 1, \ldots, n^{2}\}$ and let $\dim$ denote the box-counting dimension. It is known that for all $\lambda\in[0, 1]$, that the set of complex numbers…

Suppose that $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Further suppose that $L$ is an ample (or more generally in some sense positive) divisor. We study a natural linear system in $|K_X + L|$.…

For $\lambda\in(0,1/2]$ let $K_\lambda \subset\mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set generated by the iterated function system $\{\lambda x, \lambda x+1-\lambda\}$. Given $x\in(0,1/2)$, let $\Lambda(x)$ be the set of $\lambda\in(0,1/2]$ such…

In this paper, we use a class of finite state automata, called topology automaton, to study the metric classification of a special class of post-critically finite self-similar sets. As an application, we prove that the conformal dimension…
