Let $\alpha\in\,]0,1[$. We prove that the existence of the conformable fractional derivative $T_{\alpha}f$ of a function $f:[0,\infty[\,\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$ introduced by Khalil et al. in [R. Khalil, M. Al Horani, A. Yousef, M.…
\begin{abstract} $\pi$, the ratio between a circumference and is radius, is an irrational transcendental number. Fractal analysis is used here to show that $\pi$\textquoteright{s} digit sequence corresponds to a uniformly distributed random…
We propose a new constructive model of the real continuum based on the notion of fractal definability. Rather than assuming the continuum as a completed uncountable totality, we view it as the cumulative result of a vast space of stratified…
For two-dimensional percolation at criticality, we discuss the inequality $\alpha_4 > 1$ for the polychromatic four-arm exponent (and stronger versions, the strongest so far being $\alpha_4 \geq 1 + \frac{\alpha_2}{2}$, where $\alpha_2$…
It is shown that the consistency strength of ZF + DC + "the closed unbounded ultrafilter on omega_1 is an ultrafilter" is exactly ZFC + one measurable cardinal.
Based on fundamental properties of light scattering by a particle we reveal the existence of the ultimate upper limit for the light absorption by any partial mode. First, we obtain this result for scattering of a plane wave by a symmetric…
Much of the structure in metric spaces that allows for the creation of fractals exists in more generalized non-metrizable spaces. In particular the same theorems regarding the behavior of compact sets can be proven in the more general…
We establish new combinatorial transcendence criteria for continued fraction expansions. Let $\alpha = [0; a_1, a_2,...]$ be an algebraic number of degree at least three. One of our criteria implies that the sequence of partial quotients…
While a characterization of unavoidable formulas (without reversal) is well-known, little is known about the avoidability of formulas with reversal in general. In this article, we characterize the unavoidable formulas with reversal that…
We give the first properties of independent Bernoulli percolation, for oriented graphs on the set of vertices $\Z^d$ that are translation-invariant and may contain loops. We exhibit some examples showing that the critical probability for…
We prove two results on Fractal Uncertainty Principle (FUP) for discrete Cantor sets with large alphabets. First, we give an example of an alphabet with dimension $\delta \in (\frac12,1)$ where the FUP exponent is exponentially small as the…
It is pointed out that the "counter example" presented in the Comment is a family of probe wave functions which are increasingly broad as the shift becomes large. Furthermore, the author's variational calculation is not correct in the sense…
Physical fractals invariably have upper and lower limits for their fractal structure. Berry has shown that a particle sharply confined to a box has a wave function that is fractal both in time and space, with no lower limit. In this…
A contribution is presented to the application of fractal properties and log-periodic corrections to the masses of several nuclei (isotopes or isotones), and to the energy levels of some nuclei. The fractal parameters $\alpha$ and $\lambda$…
We study long-range percolation on the hierarchical lattice of order $N$, where any edge of length $k$ is present with probability $p_k=1-\exp(-\beta^{-k} \alpha)$, independently of all other edges. For fixed $\beta$, we show that the…
Fractal percolation has been introduced by Mandelbrot in 1974. We study the two-dimensional case, with integer subdivision index M and survival probability p. It is well known that there exists a non-trivial critical value p_c(M) such that…
We extend Feynman's analysis of the infinite ladder AC circuit to fractal AC circuits. We show that the characteristic impedances can have positive real part even though all the individual impedances inside the circuit are purely imaginary.…
We present a unified theory of fracture in disordered brittle media that reconciles apparently conflicting results reported in the literature. Our renormalization group based approach yields a phase diagram in which the percolation fixed…
We study percolation on the hierarchical lattice of order $N$ where the probability of connection between two points separated by distance $k$ is of the form $c_k/N^{k(1+\delta)},\; \delta >-1$. Since the distance is an ultrametric, there…
Assuming PFA, every uncountable subset E of the plane meets some C^1 arc in an uncountable set. This is not provable from MA(aleph_1), although in the case that E is analytic, this is a ZFC result. The result is false in ZFC for C^2 arcs,…
