Fractals-complex Geometry Patterns and Scaling in Nature and Society, 2009

The formulation of a new analysis on a zero measure Cantor set $C (\subset I=[0,1])$ is presented. A non-archimedean absolute value is introduced in $C$ exploiting the concept of {\em relative} infinitesimals and a scale invariant ultrametric valuation of the form $\log_{\varepsilon^{-1}} (\varepsilon/x) $ for a given scale $\varepsilon>0$ and infinitesimals $0<x<\varepsilon, x\in I\backslash C$. Using this new absolute value, a valued (metric) measure is defined on $C $ and is shown to be equal to the finite Hausdorff measure of the set, if it exists. The formulation of a scale invariant real analysis is also outlined, when the singleton $\{0\}$ of the real line $R$ is replaced by a zero measure Cantor set. The Cantor function is realised as a locally constant function in this setting. The ordinary derivative $dx/dt$ in $R$ is replaced by the scale invariant logarithmic derivative $d\log x/d\log t$ on the set of valued infinitesimals. As a result, the ordinary real valued functions are expected to enjoy some novel asymptotic properties, which might have important applications in number theory and in other areas of mathematics.

Along the years, the foundations of Fractal Geometry have received contributions starting from mathematicians like Cantor, Peano, Hilbert, Hausdorff, Carathéodory, Sierpi´nski, and Besicovitch, to quote some of them. They were some of the pioneers exploring objects having self-similar patterns or showing anomalous properties with respect to standard analytic attributes. Among the new tools developed to deal with this kind of objects, fractal dimension has become one of the most applied since it constitutes a single quantity which throws useful information concerning fractal patterns on sets. Several years later, fractal structures were introduced from Asymmetric Topology to characterize self-similar symbolic spaces. Our aim in this survey is to collect several results involving distinct definitions of fractal dimension we proved jointly with Prof.M.A. Sánchez-Granero in the context of fractal structures.

In the present paper we define statistically self-similar sets, and, using a modification of method described K.J.Falconer find a Hausdorff dimension of a statistically self-similar set.

Self-similar fractals arise as the unique attractors of iterated function systems (IFSs) consisting of finitely many contracting similarities satisfying an open set condition. Each point x in such a fractal F arising from an IFS S is naturally regarded as the "outcome" of an infinite coding sequence T (which need not be unique) over the alphabet Σ k = {0,. .. , k − 1}, where k is the number of contracting similarities in S. A classical theorem of Moran (1946) and Falconer (1989) states that the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of a self-similar fractal coincide with its similarity dimension, which depends only on the contraction ratios of the similarities. The theory of computing has recently been used to provide a meaningful notion of the dimensions of individual points in Euclidean space. In this paper, we use (and extend) this theory to analyze the dimensions of individual points in fractals that are computably self-similar, meaning that they are unique attractors of IFSs that are computable and satisfy the open set condition. Our main theorem states that, if F ⊆ R n is any computably self-similar fractal and S is any IFS testifying to this fact, then the dimension identities dim(x) = sdim(F) dim π S (T)

In this note, we investigate the regularity of Cantor&#39;s one-to-one mapping between the irrational numbers of the unit interval and the irrational numbers of the unit square. In particular, we explore the fractal nature of this map by showing that its H\&quot;older regularity lies between 0.35 and 0.72 almost everywhere (with respect to the Lebesgue measure).

This paper provides a new model to compute the fractal dimension of a subset on a generalized-fractal space. Recall that fractal structures are a perfect place where a new definition of fractal dimension can be given, so we perform a suitable discretization of the Hausdorff theory of fractal dimension. We also find some connections between our definition and the classical ones and also with fractal dimensions I & II (see M.A. Sánchez-Granero and M. Fernández-Martínez (2010) [16]). Therefore, we generalize them and obtain an easy method in order to calculate the fractal dimension of strict self-similar sets which are not required to verify the open set condition.

In the year (1879-1884), George Cantor coined few problems and consequences in the field of set theory. One of them was the Cantor ternary set as a classical example of fractals. In this paper, 5-adic Cantor one-fifth set as an example of fractal string have been introduced. Moreover, the applications of 5-adic Cantor one-fifth set in string theory have also been studied.

Mandelbrot, in 1975, coined the term fractal and included Cantor set as a classical example of fractals. The Cantor set has wide applications in real world problems from strange attractors of nonlinear dynamical systems to the distribution of galaxies in the universe (Schroder, 1990). In this article, we obtain superior Cantor sets and present them graphically by superior devil’s staircases. Further, based on their method of generation, we put them into two categories.
