The problem of constructing flexible stochastic models to describe the variability in shape of solid particles is challenging. Natural objects often exhibit mono- or multi-fractal features, i.e. irregular shapes and self-similar patterns.…
Precise analyses of the statistical and scaling properties of galaxy distribution are essential to elucidate the large-scale structure of the universe. Given the ongoing debate on its statistical features, the development of statistical…
We introduce the Fluctuating Two-Ray (FTR) fading model, a new statistical channel model that consists of two fluctuating specular components with random phases plus a diffuse component. The FTR model arises as the natural generalization of…
Fractal dimensions have been used as a quantitative measure for structure of eigenstates of quantum many-body systems, useful for comparison to random matrix theory predictions or to distinguish many-body localized systems from chaotic…
Multifractal properties of the energy time series of short $\alpha$-helix structures, specifically from a polyalanine family, are investigated through the MF-DFA technique ({\it{multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis}}). Estimates for…
We uncover field-theoretic underpinnings of symmetry relations for multifractal spectra at Anderson transitions and at critical points of other disordered systems. We show that such relations follow from the conformal invariance of the…
In this paper we define distance expanding random dynamical systems. We develop the appropriate thermodynamic formalism of such systems. We obtain in particular the existence and uniqueness of invariant Gibbs states, the appropriate…
This paper considers the question of characterizing the behavior of waves reflected by a fractional singularity of the wave speed profile, i.e., of the form \[ c(x_1, x_2, x_3) = c_0 \left(1 + \left( \frac{x_1}{\ell}\right)_{+}^\alpha…
The fractal dimension of large-scale galaxy clustering has been demonstrated to be roughly $D_F \sim 2$ from a wide range of redshift surveys. If correct, this statistic is of interest for two main reasons: fractal scaling is an implicit…
In chaotic reaction-diffusion systems with two degrees of freedom, the modes governing the exponential relaxation to the thermodynamic equilibrium present a fractal structure which can be characterized by a Hausdorff dimension. For long…
In this work, we examine the relationship between geometry and spectrum of regions with fractal boundary. The relationship is well-understood for fractal harps in one dimension, but largely open for fractal drums in larger dimensions. To…
The change of the effective dimension of spacetime with the probed scale is a universal phenomenon shared by independent models of quantum gravity. Using tools of probability theory and multifractal geometry, we show how dimensional flow is…
It is argued that the evolution of complex phenomena ought to be described by fractional, differential, stochastic equations whose solutions have scaling properties and are therefore random, fractal functions. To support this argument we…
Two main features of the observable distribution of visible matter are the space correlations of galaxy positions and the mass function of galaxies. As discussed in Pietronero and Sylos Labini on this issue ([1], see also [2],[3]), the…
A \emph{fractal} is an object exhibiting complexity at arbitrarily small scales. In order to study and characterise fractals, one is often interested in quantifying how they fill up space on small scales. This gives rise to various notions…
We consider homeomorphisms with integrable distortion in higher dimensions and sharpen the previous bound for area compression, which was presented by Clop and Herron. Our method relies on developing sharp bounds for the stretching…
We study the nature of the phase transition in the multifractal formalism of the harmonic measure of Diffusion Limited Aggregates (DLA). Contrary to previous work that relied on random walk simulations or ad-hoc models to estimate the low…
We informally review the construction of spacetime geometries with multifractal and, more generally, multiscale properties. Based on fractional calculus, these continuous spacetimes have their dimension changing with the scale; they display…
Linear and nonlinear dissipative structures emerge in the irradiated single and multi walled carbon nano-tubes in the form of collision cascades and thermal spikes. These are diagnosed by the information theoretic tools of fractal dimension…
Urban form has been empirically demonstrated to be of scaling invariance and can be described with fractal geometry. However, the rational range of fractal dimension value and the relationships between various fractal indicators of cities…
