In 1970, Davis and Knuth introduced the concept of revolving sequences to represent Gaussian integers. Much later, Kawamura and Allen recently generalized this idea to a wider class of revolving sequences that parametrize certain…
Initiated by Mizutani and Ito's work in 1987, Kawamura and Allen recently showed that certain self-similar sets generalized by two similar contractions have a natural complex power series representation, which is parametrized by…
Repeatedly folding a strip of paper in half and unfolding it in straight angles produces a fractal: the dragon curve. Shallit, van der Poorten and others showed that the sequence of right and left turns relates to a continued fraction that…
Fractals are ubiquitous natural emergences that have gained increased attention in engineering applications, thanks to recent technological advancements enabling the fabrication of structures spanning across many spatial scales. We show how…
Fractal groups (also called self-similar groups) is the class of groups discovered by the first author in the 80-s of the last century with the purpose to solve some famous problems in mathematics, including the question raising to von…
We forge connections between the theory of fractal sets obtained as attractors of iterated function systems and process calculi. To this end, we reinterpret Milner's expressions for processes as contraction operators on a complete metric…
In this article, we considered a fractal image as a fractal curve, that is, as a walk on a grid in Euclidean space $\R^d$. We placed integers on the generating vectors of a grid, such that opposite directions have opposite numbers. This…
This paper is a survey, with few proofs, of ideas and notions related to self-similarity of groups, semi-groups and their actions. It attempts to relate these concepts to more familiar ones, such as fractals, self-similar sets, and…
The concept of self-similarity on subsets of algebraic varieties is defined by considering algebraic endomorphisms of the variety as `similarity' maps. Self-similar fractals are subsets of algebraic varieties which can be written as a…
A sequence is a fractal sequence if it contains itself as a proper subsequence. (The self-containment property resembles that of visual fractals) A doubly fractal sequence of integers is defined by operations called upper trimming and lower…
The self-similarity properties of fractals are studied in the framework of the theory of entire analytical functions and the $q$-deformed algebra of coherent states. Self-similar structures are related to dissipation and to noncommutative…
Donald Knuth, in a draft of a coming volume of The Art of Computer Programming, has recently conjectured that in Depth-First Search of a random digraph with geometric outdegree distribution, the numbers of back and forward arcs have the…
This paper introduces the concept of Fractal Frenet equations, a set of differential equations used to describe the behavior of vectors along fractal curves. The study explores the analogue of arc length for fractal curves, providing a…
Abstract Self-similar, fractal nature of turbulence is discussed in the context of two dimensional turbulence, by considering the fractal structure of the wave-number domain using spirals. In loose analogy with phyllotaxis in plants, each…
We explore a new sieve that generates both primes and prime factorizations, without resorting to division. We demonstrate that the integer sequences generated by the sieve are the p-adic valuations of n, and that each is a fractal sequence.…
We establish properties of a new type of fractal which has partial self similarity at all scales. For any collection of iterated functions systems with an associated probability distribution and any positive integer V there is a…
Recursive distinctioning (RD) is a name coined by Joel Isaacson in his original patent document describing how fundamental patterns of process arise from the systematic application of operations of distinction and description upon…
Understanding irreversibility in macrophysics from reversible microphysics has been the holy grail in statistical physics ever since the mid-19th century. Here the central question concerns the arrow of time, which boils down to deriving…
The term rotational frequency shift (RFS) has been used in different contexts and it was given different meanings. Other terms have also been used (azimuthal Doppler shift, angular Doppler shift) to describe various related phenomena. In…
One of the most well known random fractals is the so-called Fractal percolation set. This is defined as follows: we divide the unique cube in $\mathbb{R}^d$ into $M^d$ congruent sub-cubes. For each of these cubes a certain retention…
