In the present work, we study the attractors of iterated function systems (IFSs) on connected and compact metric spaces. We prove that the whole of the phase space of a forward minimal IFS, for which some map admits an attracting fixed…
We study the attractor of Iterated Function Systems composed of infinitely many affine, homogeneous maps. In the special case of second generation IFS, defined herein, we conjecture that the attractor consists of a finite number of…
In this paper, we deal with the part of Fractal Theory related to finite families of (weak) contractions, called iterated function systems (IFS, herein). An attractor is a compact set which remains invariant for such a family. Thus, we…
An infinite iterated function system (IIFS) is a countable collection of contraction maps on a compact metric space. In this paper we study the conditions under which the attractor of a such system admits a parameterization by a continuous…
In this paper we present a systematic study of continuous local iterated function systems. We prove local iterated function systems admit compact attractors and, under a contractivity assumption, construct their code space and present an…
We consider iterated function systems on the real line that consist of continuous, piecewise linear functions. Under a mild separation condition, we show that the Hausdorff and box dimensions of the attractor are equal to the minimum of 1…
We introduce the novel concept of hypercomplex iterated function system (IFS) on the complete metric space $(\mathbb{A}_{n+1}^k,d)$ and define its hypercomplex attractor. Systems of hypercomplex function systems arising from hypercomplex…
We study the topological properties of attractors of Iterated Function Systems (I.F.S.) on the real line, consisting of affine maps of homogeneous contraction ratio. These maps define what we call a second generation I.F.S.: they are…
In this paper, the product of the Hausdorff metric on the product space is defined and the equivalency between the product Hausdorff metric and the Hausdorff metric on the product space is established. The finite product of the iterated…
Iterated Function Systems (IFSs) have been at the heart of fractal geometry almost from its origin, and several generalizations for the notion of IFS have been suggested. Subdivision schemes are widely used in computer graphics and attempts…
We study countable compact spaces as potential attractors of iterated function systems. We give an example of a convergent sequence in the real line which is not an IFS-attractor and for each countable ordinal $\delta$ we show that a…
We investigate the topological and metric properties of attractors of an iterated function system (IFS) whose functions may not be contractive. We focus, in particular, on invertible IFSs of finitely many maps on a compact metric space. We…
We give a systematic account of iterated function systems (IFS) of weak contractions of different types (Browder, Rakotch, topological). We show that the existence of attractors and asymptotically stable invariant measures, and the validity…
For fractals on Riemannian manifolds, the theory of iterated function systems often does not apply well directly, as fractal sets are often defined by relations that are multivalued or non-contractive. To overcome this difficulty, we…
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.…
Iterated function systems (IFSs) and their attractors have been central to the theory of fractal geometry almost from its inception. And contractivity of the functions in the IFS has been central to the theory of iterated functions systems.…
This paper is in the form of an essay. It defines fractal tops and code space structures associated with set-attractors of hyperbolic iterated function systems (IFSs). The fractal top of an IFS is associated with a certain shift invariant…
A simple, yet unifying method is provided for the construction of tilings by tiles obtained from the attractor of an iterated function system (IFS). Many examples appearing in the literature in ad hoc ways, as well as new examples, can be…
We consider the dimension and measure of typical attractors of random iterated function systems (RIFSs). We define a RIFS to be a finite set of (deterministic) iterated function systems (IFSs) acting on the same metric space and, for a…
In this work we propose a definition of an Euroattractor: an attracting invariant measure of a certain iterated functions system (IFS). An IFS is defined by specifying a set of functions, defined in subsets of R^N or in a classical phase…
