The paper is devoted to an approach to the notion of the complex dilatation based on the following observations. (1) A natural measure of the distortion of the conformal structure by a real linear automorphism of the complex plane is the…
Consider $d$ disjoint closed subintervals of the unit interval and consider an orientation preserving expanding map which maps each of these subintervals to the whole unit interval. The set of points where all iterates of this expanding map…
Braided sets which are also spaces with dilations are presented and explored in this paper, in the general frame of emergent algebras arxiv:0907.1520. Examples of such spaces are the sub-riemannian symmetric spaces. Keywords: braided sets,…
Given $\lambda\in(0, 1)$, let $E_\lambda$ be the self-similar set generated by the iterated function system $\{x/3,(x+\lambda)/3,(x+2)/3\}$. Then $E_\lambda$ is a self-similar set with overlaps. We obtain the necessary and sufficient…
We study experimentally systems of orthogonal polynomials with respect to self-similar measures. When the support of the measure is a Cantor set, we observe some interesting properties of the polynomials, both on the Cantor set and in the…
For a self-similar set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is the attractor of an iterated function system that does not verify the weak separation property, Fraser, Henderson, Olson and Robinson showed that its Assouad dimension is at least $1$. In…
Spatial relations between objects in an image have proved useful for structural object recognition. Structural constraints can act as regularization in neural network training, improving generalization capability with small datasets.…
We present the characterization of metric spaces that are micro-, macro- or bi-uniformly equivalent to the extended Cantor set $\{\sum_{i=-n}^\infty\frac{2x_i}{3^i}:n\in\IN ,\;(x_i)_{i\in\IZ}\in\{0,1\}^\IZ\}\subset\IR$, which is…
The main aim of the paper is to give a full classification (up to isometry) of all metric spaces X with the following two properties: X contains a compact set with non-empty interior; and for any three distinct points a, b and c of X there…
We introduce an analogue of the theory of length spaces into the setting of Lorentzian geometry and causality theory. The r\^ole of the metric is taken over by the time separation function, in terms of which all basic notions are…
We define enlargeable length-structures on closed topological manifolds and then show that the connected sum of a closed $n$-manifold with an enlargeable Riemannian length-structure with an arbitrary closed smooth manifold carries no…
We introduce the key concepts of duality mappings and metric extensor. The fundamental identities involving the duality mappings are presented, and we disclose the logical equivalence between the so-called metric tensor and the metric…
This paper gives a short introduction into the metric theory of spaces with dilations.
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…
Group lattices (Cayley digraphs) of a discrete group are in natural correspondence with differential calculi on the group. On such a differential calculus geometric structures can be introduced following general recipes of noncommutative…
In some scientific fields, a scaling is able to modify the topology of an observed object. Our goal in the present work is to introduce a new formalism adapted to the mathematical representation of this kind of phenomenon. To this end, we…
We use the self-similar tilings constructed by the second author in "Canonical self-affine tilings by iterated function systems" to define a generating function for the geometry of a self-similar set in Euclidean space. This tubular zeta…
This article provides examples of distal metric structures. One source of examples are metric valued fields. By analyzing indiscernible sequences, we show that real closed metric valued fields are distal, and conclude that algebraically…
In this paper, we study the Hausdorff dimension of self-similar measures and sets on the real line, where the generating iterated function system consists of some maps that share the same fixed point. In particular, we will show that out of…
For metric spaces, the doubling property, the uniform disconnectedness, and the uniform perfectness are known as quasi-symmetric invariant properties. The David-Semmes uniformization theorem states that if a compact metric space satisfies…
