We develop a unified approach for establishing rates of decay for the Fourier transform of a wide class of dynamically defined measures. Among the key features of the method is the systematic use of the $L^2$-flattening theorem obtained in…
Let $\Gamma$ be a (convex-)cocompact group of isometries of the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$, let $M := \mathbb{H}^d/\Gamma$ be the associated hyperbolic manifold, and consider a real valued potential $F$ on its unit tangent bundle $T^1…
We show positivity of the lower Fourier dimension for equilibrium states of nonlinear, area preserving, Axiom A diffeomorphisms on surfaces. To do so, we use the sum-product phenomenon to reduce Fourier decay to the study of some temporal…
Let $M$ be a closed manifold, and let $f:M \rightarrow M$ be a $C^{2+\alpha}$ Axiom A diffeomorphism. Suppose that $f$ has an attractor $\Omega$ with codimension 1 stable lamination. Under a generic nonlinearity condition and a suitable…
We show that the Fourier transform of Patterson-Sullivan measures associated to convex cocompact groups of isometries of real hyperbolic space decays polynomially quickly at infinity. The proof is based on the $L^2$-flattening theorem…
Iterative Fast Fourier Transform methods are useful for calculating the fields in composite materials and their macroscopic response. By iterating back and forth until convergence, the differential constraints are satisfied in Fourier…
We study when Fourier transforms of Gibbs measures of sufficiently nonlinear expanding Markov maps decay at infinity at a polynomial rate. Assuming finite Lyapunov exponent, we reduce this to a nonlinearity assumption, which we verify for…
We consider iterated function systems (IFS) in ${\mathbb R}^d$ for $d\ge 3$ of the form $\{f_j(x) = \lambda {\mathcal O} x + a_j\}_{j=0}^m$, with $a_0=0$ and $m\ge 1$. Here $\lambda\in (0,1)$ is the contraction ratio and ${\mathcal O}$ is…
We study invariant measures for random countable (finite or infinite) conformal iterated function systems (IFS) with arbitrary overlaps. We do not assume any type of separation condition. We prove, under a mild assumption of finite entropy,…
Let $\Phi$ be a $C^\omega (\mathbb{C})$ self-conformal IFS on the plane, satisfying some mild non-linearity and irreducibility conditions. We prove a uniform spectral gap estimate for the transfer operator corresponding to the derivative…
In this note, we investigate $C^2$ differential images of the homogeneous self-similar measure associated with an IFS $\mathcal{I}=\{\rho x+a_j\}_{j=1}^m$ satisfying the strong separation condition and a positive probability vector…
We prove exponential decay of correlations for a class of $C^{1+\alpha}$ uniformly hyperbolic skew product flows, subject to a uniform nonintegrability condition. In particular, this establishes exponential decay of correlations for an open…
Fourier-positivity, i.e. the mathematical property that a function has a positive Fourier transform, can be used as a constraint on the parametrization of QCD dipole-target cross-sections or Wilson line correlators in transverse position…
We show that for Lebesgue almost all $d$-tuples $(\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_d)$, with $|\theta_j|>1$, any self-affine measure for a homogeneous non-degenerate iterated function system $\{Ax+a_j\}_{j=1}^m$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$, where $A^{-1}$ is…
We prove that the Fourier transform of a self conformal measure on $\mathbb{R}$ decays to $0$ at infinity at a logarithmic rate, unless the following holds: The underlying IFS is smoothly conjugated to an IFS that both acts linearly on its…
We extend classical basis constructions from Fourier analysis to attractors for affine iterated function systems (IFSs). This is of interest since these attractors have fractal features, e.g., measures with fractal scaling dimension.…
In this paper we consider Iterated Function Systems (IFS) on the real line consisting of continuous piecewise linear functions. We assume some bounds on the contraction ratios of the functions, but we do not assume any separation condition.…
We establish an exponential error term for the renewal theorem in the context of products of random matrices, which is surprising compared with classical abelian cases. A key tool is the Fourier decay of the Furstenberg measures on the…
Several important conjectures in Fractal Geometry can be summarised as follows: If the dimension of a self-similar measure in $\mathbb{R}$ does not equal its expected value, then the underlying iterated function system contains an exact…
This paper considers self-conformal iterated function systems (IFSs) on the real line whose first level cylinders overlap. In the space of self-conformal IFSs, we show that generically (in topological sense) if the attractor of such a…
