Much is known in the analysis of a finitely ramified self-similar fractal when the fractal has a harmonic structure: a Dirichlet form which respects the self-similarity of a fractal. What is still an open question is when such structure…

We prove the uniqueness of self-similar $D_4$-symmetric resistance forms on unconstrained Sierpinski carpets ($\mathcal{USC}$'s). Moreover, on a sequence of $\mathcal{USC}$'s $K_n, n\geq 1$ converging in Hausdorff metric, we show that the…

We consider an initial-boundary value problem for the $n$-dimensional wave equation with the variable sound speed, $n\geq 1$. We construct three-level implicit in time and compact in space (three-point in each space direction) 4th order…

We give a purely analytic construction of a self-similar local regular Dirichlet form on the Sierpi\'nski carpet using approximation of stable-like non-local closed forms which gives an answer to an open problem in analysis on fractals.

We study the convergence of resistance metrics and resistance forms on a converging sequence of spaces. As an application, we study the existence and uniqueness of self-similar Dirichlet forms on Sierpinski gaskets with added rotated…

The diffraction spectrum of coherent waves scattered from fractal supports is calculated exactly. The fractals considered are of the class generated iteratively by successive dilations and translations, and include generalizations of the…

We consider a trace theorem for self-similar Dirichlet forms on self-similar sets to self-similar subsets. In particular, we characterize the trace of the domains of Dirichlet forms on the Sierpinski gaskets and the Sierpinski carpets to…

The relative configurational entropy per cell as a function of length scale is a sensitive detector of spatial self-similarity. For Sierpinski carpets the equally separated peaks of the above function appear at the length scales that depend…

We study upper estimates of the martingale dimension $d_m$ of diffusion processes associated with strong local Dirichlet forms. By applying a general strategy to self-similar Dirichlet forms on self-similar fractals, we prove that $d_m=1$…

Let $\theta$ be a Bernoulli measure which is stationary for a random walk generated by finitely many contracting rational affine dilations of $\mathbb{R}^d$, and let $\mathcal{K} = \mathrm{supp}(\theta)$ be the corresponding attractor. An…

In a recent work on fluid infiltration in a Hele-Shaw cell with the pore-block geometry of Sierpinski carpets (SCs), the area filled by the invading fluid was shown to scale as F~t^n, with n<1/2, thus providing a macroscopic realization of…

We consider a random self-affine carpet $F$ based on an $n\times m$ subdivision of rectangles and a probability $0<p<1$. Starting by dividing $[0,1]^2$ into an $n\times m$ grid of rectangles and selecting these independently with…

In this paper, we discuss the 2D convection-diffusion-reaction equation with variable smooth coefficients and the Dirichlet boundary condition on a complicated, thin, and curved domain. We propose the fourth-order compact FDM at every grid…

The Koch snowflake is a classical example of a planar curve with infinite perimeter enclosing a finite, positive area. Although such examples are well known individually, classical treatments typically analyze each construction in isolation…

This research is motivated by the study of the geometry of fractal sets and is focused on uniformization problems: transformation of sets to canonical sets, using maps that preserve the geometry in some sense. More specifically, the main…

This thesis is about local and non-local Dirichlet forms on the Sierpi\'nski gasket and the Sierpi\'nski carpet. We are concerned with the following three problems in analysis on the Sierpi\'nski gasket and the Sierpi\'nski carpet. First, a…

We consider the self-assembly of fractals in one of the most well-studied models of tile based self-assembling systems known as the Two-handed Tile Assembly Model (2HAM). In particular, we focus our attention on a class of fractals called…

The growth of ballistic aggregates on deterministic fractal substrates is studied by means of numerical simulations. First, we attempt the description of the evolving interface of the aggregates by applying the well-established…

In this paper, we construct and then prove the up-to constants uniqueness of the natural measure on several random fractals, namely the SLE cut points, SLE boundary touching points, CLE pivotal points and the CLE carpet/gasket. As an…

We study the branch of semi-stable and unstable solutions (i.e., those whose Morse index is at most one) of the Dirichlet boundary value problem $-\Delta u=\frac{\lambda f(x)}{(1-u)^2}$ on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^N$, which…
