We study Non-autonomous Iterated Function Systems (NIFSs) with overlaps. A NIFS on a compact subset $X\subset\mathbb{R}^m$ is a sequence $\Phi=(\{\phi^{(j)}_{i}\}_{i\in I^{(j)}})_{j=1}^{\infty}$ of collections of uniformly contracting maps…
We analyze the two-point motions of iterated function systems on the unit interval generated by expanding and contracting affine maps, where the expansion and contraction rates are determined by a pair $(M,N)$ of integers. This dynamics…
We give a sufficient condition for the ergodicity of the Lebesgue measure for an iterated function system of diffeomorphisms. This is done via the induced iterated function system on the space of continuum (which is called hyper-space). We…
We review aspects of an important paper by Robert Strichartz concerning reverse iterated function systems (i.f.s.) and fractal blowups. We compare the invariant sets of reverse i.f.s. with those of more standard i.f.s. and with those of…
The notion of $\ast$-measure on a compact Hausdorff space can be defined for arbitrary continuous triangular norm $\ast$. The well-known Hutchinson-Barnsley theory deals with the iterated function systems (IFSs) of probability measures and…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space, and let an iterated function system (IFS) be given on $X$, i.e., a finite set of continuous maps $\sigma_{i}$: $ X\to X$, $i=0,1,..., N-1$. The maps $\sigma_{i}$ transform the measures $\mu $ on $X$…
We develop large sample theory for merged data from multiple sources. Main statistical issues treated in this paper are (1) the same unit potentially appears in multiple datasets from overlapping data sources, (2) duplicated items are not…
We study families of possibly overlapping self-affine sets. Our main example is a family that can be considered the self-affine version of Bernoulli convolutions and was studied, in the non-overlapping case, by F.Przytycki and M.Urbanski.…
We study skew product lifts and overlap numbers for equilibrium measures \mu_\psi of H\"older continuous potentials \psi on such lifts. We find computable formulas and estimates for the overlap numbers in several concrete significant cases…
We examine two questions regarding Fourier frequencies for a class of iterated function systems (IFS). These are iteration limits arising from a fixed finite families of affine and contractive mappings in $\br^d$, and the ``IFS'' refers to…
We consider the iterated function systems (IFSs) that consist of three general similitudes in the plane with centres at three non-collinear points, and with a common contraction factor $\la\in(0,1)$. As is well known, for $\la=1/2$ the…
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…
For $X$, $Y$, $Z$ and $W$ compact metric spaces, consider two uniformly contractive IFS $\{\tau_x: Z\to Z,\, x\in x\}$ and $\{\tau_y:W\to W,\, y\in Y\}$. For a fixed $\alpha \in \mathcal{P}(X)$ with $supp(\alpha)=X$ we define the entropy of…
In this paper we develop a measure-theoretic method to treat problems in hypergraph theory. Our central theorem is a correspondence principle between three objects: An increasing hypergraph sequence, a measurable set in an ultraproduct…
We establish the mixing property for a family of Lebesgue measure preserving toral maps composed of two piecewise linear shears, the first of which is non-monotonic. The maps serve as a basic model for the `stretching and folding' action in…
Let $\{S_i\}_{i\in \Lambda}$ be a finite contracting affine iterated function system (IFS) on ${\Bbb R}^d$. Let $(\Sigma,\sigma)$ denote the two-sided full shift over the alphabet $\Lambda$, and $\pi:\Sigma\to {\Bbb R}^d$ be the coding map…
We prove that if $\mu$ is a self-affine measure in the plane whose defining IFS acts totally irreducibly on $\mathbb{RP}^1$ and satisfies an exponential separation condition, then its dimension is equal to its Lyapunov dimension. We also…
In this paper we consider a general class $\mathcal E$ of self-similar sets with complete overlaps. Given a self-similar iterated function system $\Phi=(E, \{f_i\}_{i=1}^m)\in\mathcal E$ on the real line, for each point $x\in E$ we can find…
We examine Fourier frames and, more generally, frame measures for different probability measures. We prove that if a measure has an associated frame measure, then it must have a certain uniformity in the sense that the weight is distributed…
In [8] we found a class of overlapping asymmetric self-similar measures on the real line, which are generically absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. Here we construct exceptional measures in this class being singular.
