We associate to each iterated function system consisting of phi-max-contractions an operator (on the space of continuous functions from the shift space on the metric space corresponding to the system) having a unique fixed point whose image…
We prove that the idempotent Markov operator generated by contractive max plus normalized iterated function system (IFS) is also a contractive map w.r.t. natural metrics on the space of idempotent measures. This gives alternative proofs of…
In this work we present iterated function systems with general measures(IFSm) formed by a set of maps $\tau_{\lambda}$ acting over a compact space $X$, for a compact space of indices, $\Lambda$. The Markov process $Z_k$ associated to the…
We give a systematic account of iterated function systems (IFS) of weak contractions of different types (Browder, Rakotch, topological). We show that the existence of attractors and asymptotically stable invariant measures, and the validity…
For any continuous probability measure $\mu$ on ${\mathbb R}$ we construct an IFS with probabilities having $\mu$ as its unique measure-attractor.
We consider iterated function systems (finite or countable), together with linear and continuous operators on Hilbert spaces, which enable us to construct Markov-type operators. Under suitable conditions, these Markov-type operators have…
We study the convergence of random function iterations for finding an invariant measure of the corresponding Markov operator. We call the problem of finding such an invariant measure the stochastic fixed point problem. This generalizes…
We investigate the topological and metric properties of attractors of an iterated function system (IFS) whose functions may not be contractive. We focus, in particular, on invertible IFSs of finitely many maps on a compact metric space. We…
We introduce an harmonic analysis for iterated function systems (IFS) (X, mu) which is based on a Markov process on certain paths. The probabilities are determined by a weight function W on X. From W we define a transition operator R_W…
We study Markov chains generated by iterated Lipschitz functions systems with possibly place dependent probabilities. Under general conditions, we prove uniqueness of the invariant probability measure for the associated Markov chain, by…
We consider iterated function systems $\mathrm{IFS}(T_1,\dots,T_k)$ consisting of continuous self maps of a compact metric space $X$. We introduce the subset $S_{\mathrm{t}}$ of {\emph{weakly hyperbolic sequences}} $\xi=\xi_0\ldots\xi_n…
We study the convergence of random function iterations for finding an invariant measure of the corresponding Markov operator. We call the problem of finding such an invariant measure the stochastic fixed point problem. This generalizes…
A distributional equation as a criterion for invariant measures of Markov processes associated to L\'evy-type operators is established. This is obtained via a characterization of infinitesimally invariant measures of the associated…
A classical theorem of Hutchinson asserts that if an iterated function system acts on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by similitudes and satisfies the open set condition then it admits a unique self-similar measure with Hausdorff dimension equal to the…
We study the attractor of Iterated Function Systems composed of infinitely many affine, homogeneous maps. In the special case of second generation IFS, defined herein, we conjecture that the attractor consists of a finite number of…
The invariant measure is a fundamental object in the theory of Markov processes. In finite dimensions a Markov process is defined by transition rates of the corresponding stochastic matrix. The Markov tree theorem provides an explicit…
We study contraction conditions for an iterated function system of continuous maps on a metric space which are chosen randomly, identically and independently. We investigate metric changes, preserving the topological structure of the space,…
The Law of the Iterated Logarithm for some Markov operators, which converge exponentially to the invariant measure, is established. The operators correspond to iterated function systems which, for example, may be used to generalize the cell…
For a class of piecewise deterministic Markov processes, the supports of the invariant measures are characterized. This is based on the analysis of controllability properties of an associated deterministic control system. Its invariant…
We investigate whether the Hutchinson operator associated with the iterated function system (IFS) is continuous. It clarifies several partial results scattered across recent literature. While the main example for IFS with strict attractor…
