For self-similar sets, there are two important separation properties: the open set condition and the weak separation condition introduced by Zerner, which may be replaced by the formally stronger finite type property of Ngai and Wang. We…
For a given pcf self-similar fractal, a certain network (weighted graph) is constructed whose ideal boundary is (homeomorphic to) the fractal. This construction is the first representation of a connected self-similar fractal as the boundary…
In this paper we analyze some applications of the category of exterior spaces to the study of dynamical systems (flows). We study the notion of an absorbing open subset of a dynamical system; i.e., an open subset that contains the "future…
Finite automata were used to determine multiple addresses in number systems and to find topological properties of self-affine tiles and finite type fractals. We join these two lines of research by axiomatically defining automata which…
The topological classification of the inner mappings on the fully invariant regular components of the wandering set with a special attracting boundary up to the topological conjugacy is defined in terms of distinguishing graph. Two inner…
We consider transformations of deterministic and random signals governed by simple dynamical mappings. It is shown that the resulting signal can be a random process described in terms of fractal distributions and fractal domain integrals.…
For a large class of self-similar sets F in R^d analogues of the higher order mean curvatures of differentiable submanifolds are introduced, in particular, the fractal Gauss-type curvature. They are shown to be the densities of associated…
We develop a sound and complete graphical theory for discrete linear time-invariant dynamical systems. The graphical syntax, as in previous work, is closely related to the classical notion of signal flow diagrams, differently from previous…
By slight modification of the data of the Sierpinski gasket, keeping the open set condition fulfilled, we obtain self-similar sets with very dense parts, similar to fractals in nature and in random models. This is caused by a complicated…
The structure of a self-similar set with open set condition does not change under magnification. For self-affine sets the situation is completely different. We consider planar self-affine Cantor sets E of the type studied by Bedford,…
This paper presents a detailed symbolic approach to the study of self-similar tilings. It uses properties of addresses associated with graph-directed iterated function systems to establish conjugacy properties of tiling spaces. Tiles may be…
We study sets of local dimensions for self-similar measures in $\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the finite neighbour condition, which is formally stronger than the weak separation condition but satisfied in all known examples. Under a mild technical…
Self-similar sets with open set condition, the linear objects of fractal geometry, have been considered mainly for crystallographic data. Here we introduce new symmetry classes in the plane, based on rotation by irrational angles. Examples…
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…
We present a graph-theoretic model for dynamical systems $(X,\sigma)$ given by a surjective local homeomorphism $\sigma$ on a totally disconnected compact metrizable space $X$. In order to make the dynamics appear explicitly in the graph,…
An exterior space is a topological space provided with a quasi-filter of open subsets (closed by finite intersections). In this work, we analyze some relations between the notion of an exterior space and the notion of a discrete semi-flow.…
We study the multifractal analysis of self-similar measures arising from random homogeneous iterated function systems. Under the assumption of the uniform strong separation condition, we see that this analysis parallels that of the…
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…
The topological and metrical equivalence of fractals is an important topic in analysis. In this paper, we use a class of finite state automata, called $\Sigma$-automaton, to construct psuedo-metric spaces, and then apply them to the study…
A particular case of a causal set is considered that is a directed dyadic acyclic graph. This is a model of a discrete pregeometry on a microscopic scale. The dynamics is a stochastic sequential growth of the graph. New vertexes of the…
