We introduce the novel concept of a non-stationary iterated function system by considering a countable sequence of distinct set-valued maps { F k } k ∈ N where each F k maps H ( X ) → H ( X ) and arises from an iterated function system. Employing the recently-developed theory of non-stationary versions of fixed points and the concept of forward and backward trajectories, we present new classes of fractal functions exhibiting different local and global behavior and extend fractal interpolation to this new, more flexible setting.

Barnsley (Barnsley, M.F., 1986. Fractal functions and interpolation. Constr. Approx., 2, pp.303–329) introduced fractal interpolation function (FIF) whose graph is the attractor of an iterated function system (IFS) for describing the data that have an irregular or self-similar structure. Barnsley et al. (Barnsley, M.F., et al., 1989. Recurrent iterated function systems in fractal approximation. Constr. Approx., 5, pp.3–31) generalized FIF in the form of recurrent fractal interpolation function (RFIF) whose graph is the attractor of a recurrent iterated function system (RIFS) to fit data set which is piece-wise self-affine. The primary aim of the present research is investigating the RFIF approach and using it for fitting the piece-wise self-affine data set in ℜ2.

We construct hidden variable bivariate fractal interpolation surfaces (FIS). The vector valued iterated function system (IFS) is constructed in ℝ4 and its projection in ℝ3 is taken. The extra degree of freedom coming from ℝ4 provides hidden variable, which is an important factor for flexibility and diversity in the interpolated surface. In the present paper, we construct an IFS that generates both self-similar and non-self-similar FIS simultaneously and show that the hidden variable fractal surface may be self-similar under certain conditions.

The appearance of fractal interpolation function represents a revival of experimental mathematics, raised by computers and intensified by powerful evidence of its applications. This paper is devoted to establish a method to construct [Formula: see text]-fractal rational quartic spline, which eventually provides a unified approach for the generalization of various traditional nonrecursive rational splines involving shape parameters. We deduce the uniform error bound for the [Formula: see text]-fractal rational quartic spline when the original function is in [Formula: see text]. By solving a system of linear equations, appropriate values of the derivative parameters are determined so as to enhance the continuity of the [Formula: see text]-fractal rational quartic spline to [Formula: see text]. The elements of the iterated function system are identified befittingly so that the class of [Formula: see text]-fractal function [Formula: see text] incorporates the geometric features such as positivity, monotonicity and convexity in addition to the regularity inherent in the germ [Formula: see text]. This general theory in conjunction with shape preserving aspects of the traditional splines provides algorithms for the construction of shape preserving fractal interpolation functions.

Nonlinear functions, including nonlinear iterated function systems, have interesting fixed points. We present a non-Lipschitz theoretical approach to nonlinear function system fixed points which generalizes to noncontractive functions, compare several methods for evaluating such fixed points on modern graphics hardware, and present a nonlinear generalization of Barnsley’s Deterministic Iteration Algorithm. Unlike the many existing randomized rendering algorithms, this deterministic method avoids noncoherent branching and memory access and takes advantage of programmable texture mapping hardware. Together with the performance potential of modern graphics hardware, this allows us to animate high-quality and high-definition fixed points in real time.

The Koch curve was first described by the Swedish mathematician Helge von Koch in 1904 as an example of a continuous but nowhere differentiable curve. Such functions are now characterised as fractal since their graphs are in general fractal sets. Furthermore, it can be obtained as the graph of an appropriately chosen iterated function system. On the other hand, a fractal interpolation function can be seen as a special case of an iterated function system thus maintaining all of its characteristics. Fractal interpolation functions are continuous functions that can be used to model continuous signals. An in-depth discussion on the theory of affine fractal interpolation functions generating the Koch Curve by using fractal analysis as well as its recent development including some of the research made by the authors is provided. We ensure that the graph of fractal interpolation functions on the Koch Curve are attractors of an iterated function system constructed by non-constant harmonic functions.

In this paper, we present a construction of hidden variable bivariate fractal interpolation functions (HVBFIFs) with function vertical scaling factors and estimate errors of HVBFIFs on perturbation of the function vertical scaling factor. We construct HVBFIFs on the basis of the iterated function system (IFS) with function vertical scaling factors. The perturbation of the function vertical scaling factors in the IFS causes a change in the HVBFIF. An upper estimation of the errors between the original HVBFIF and the perturbed HVBFIF is given.

In this article, firstly, an overview of affine fractal interpolation functions using a suitable iterated function system is presented and, secondly, the construction of Bernstein affine fractal interpolation functions in two and three dimensions is introduced. Moreover, the convergence of the proposed Bernstein affine fractal interpolation functions towards the data generating function does not require any condition on the scaling factors. Consequently, the proposed Bernstein affine fractal interpolation functions possess irregularity at any stage of convergence towards the data generating function.

In this paper, the methods of construction of a fractal surface are introduced, the principle of bivariate fractal interpolation functions is discussed. The theorem of the uniqueness of an iterated function system of bivariate fractal interpolation functions is proved. Moreover, the theorem of fractal dimension of fractal interpolated surface is derived. Based on these theorems, the fractal interpolated surfaces are created by using practical data.

In this paper, we introduce a construction of hidden variable recurrent fractal interpolation functions (HVRFIFs) with four function contractivity factors. The HVRFIF is a hidden variable fractal interpolation function (HVFIF) constructed using a recurrent iterated function system (RIFS). In the fractal interpolation theory, it is very important to ensure flexibility and diversity of the construction of interpolation functions. RIFSs produce fractal sets with local self-similarity structure. Therefore, the RIFS can describe the irregular and complicated objects in nature better than the iterated function system (IFS). The HVFIF is neither self-similar nor self-affine one. Hence, the HVFIF is more complicated, diverse and irregular than the fractal interpolation function (FIF). The contractivity factors of IFS are very important one that determines characteristics of FIFs. The IFS and RIFS with function contractivity factors can describe the fractal objects in nature better than one with constant contractivity factors. To ensure higher flexibility and diversity of the construction of the FIFs, we present constructions of one variable HVRFIFs and bivariable HVRFIFs using RIFS with four function contractivity factors.
