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…

For $0< \rho < 1/3$ and $\rho \le \lambda \le 1-2\rho$, let $E$ be the self-similar set generated by the iterated function system $$\Phi = \big\{ \varphi_1(x) = \rho x ,\; \varphi_2(x) = \rho x + \lambda, \; \varphi_3(x) = \rho x + 1- \rho…

Until recently, it was an important open problem in Fractal Geometry to determine whether there exists an iterated function system acting on $\mathbb{R}$ with no exact overlaps for which cylinders are super-exponentially close at all small…

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…

We show that any equicontractive, self-similar measure arising from the IFS of contractions $(S_{j})$, with self-similar set $[0,1]$, admits an isolated point in its set of local dimensions provided the images of $S_{j}(0,1)$ (suitably)…

Let $\Lambda$ be a countable index set and $S=\{\phi_i: i\in \Lambda\}$ be a conformal iterated function system on $[0,1]^d$ satisfying the open set condition. Denote by $J$ the attractor of $S$. With each sequence $(w_1,w_2,...)\in…

Let $C$ be the attractor of the IFS $\{f_{d}(z) = (-n+i)^{-1}(z+d): d\in D\}$, $D\subset\{0, 1, \ldots, n^{2}\}$ and let $\dim$ denote the box-counting dimension. It is known that for all $\lambda\in[0, 1]$, that the set of complex numbers…

Let $E$ be the self-similar set generated by the {\it iterated function system} {\[ f_0(x)=\frac{x}{\beta},\quad f_1(x)=\frac{x+1}{\beta}, \quad f_{\beta+1}=\frac{x+\beta+1}{\beta} \]}with $\beta\ge 3$. {Then} $E$ is a self-similar set with…

We consider the iterated function systems (IFSs) that consist of three general similitudes in the plane with centres at three non-collinear points, and with a common contraction factor $\la\in(0,1)$. As is well known, for $\la=1/2$ the…

In this paper, exact Hausdorff dimension formulas for a class of self-affine attractors generated by affine Iterated Function Systems are derived. We consider systems containing an affine map whose $n$-th iterate is a similarity…

Let $K$ be the attractor of the following IFS $$\{f_1(x)=\lambda x, f_2(x)=\lambda x +c-\lambda,f_3(x)=\lambda x +1-\lambda\}, $$ where $f_1(I)\cap f_2(I)\neq \emptyset, (f_1(I)\cup f_2(I))\cap f_3(I)=\emptyset,$ and $I=[0,1]$ is the convex…

S. Baker (2019), B. B\'ar\'any and A. K\"{a}enm\"{a}ki (2019) independently showed that there exist iterated function systems without exact overlaps and there are super-exponentially close cylinders at all small levels. We adapt the method…

Let $F=\{\mathbf{p}_0,\ldots,\mathbf{p}_n\}$ be a collection of points in $\mathbb{R}^d.$ The set $F$ naturally gives rise to a family of iterated function systems consisting of contractions of the form $$S_i(\mathbf{x})=\lambda \mathbf{x}…

Let $s_0,s_1,\dots,s_{m-1}$ be complex numbers and $r_0,\dots,r_{m-1}$ rational integers in the range $0\le r_j\le m-1$. Our first goal is to prove that if an entire function $f$ of sufficiently small exponential type satisfies…

In this paper we consider a general class $\mathcal E$ of self-similar sets with complete overlaps. Given a self-similar iterated function system $\Phi=(E, \{f_i\}_{i=1}^m)\in\mathcal E$ on the real line, for each point $x\in E$ we can find…

Fix any $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$. We say that a set $S\subseteq\mathbb{C}$ is $\lambda$-$convex$ if, whenever $a$ and $b$ are in $S$, the point $(1-\lambda)a+\lambda b$ is also in $S$. If $S$ is also (topologically) closed, then we say that…
