Asymptotics of the Hausdorff dimensions of the Julia sets of McMullen maps with error bounds*

For McMullen maps f λ (z) = z p + λ/z p , where λ ∈ C \ { 0 } , it is known that if p ⩾ 3 and λ is small enough, then the Julia set J(f λ ) of f λ is a Cantor set of circles. In this paper we show that the Hausdorff dimension of J(f λ ) has the following asymptotic behavior dim H J ( f λ ) = 1 + log 2 log p + O ( | λ | 2 − 4 / p ) , as λ → 0 . An explicit error estimation of the remainder is also obtained. We also observe a ‘dimension paradox’ for the Julia set of Cantor set of circles.

Nonlocal fractal calculus based analyses of electrical circuits on fractal set

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the analyses of electrical circuits with arbitrary source terms defined on middle b cantor set by means of nonlocal fractal calculus and to evaluate the appropriateness of such unconventional calculus. Design/methodology/approach The nonlocal fractal integro-differential equations describing RL, RC, LC and RLC circuits with arbitrary source terms defined on middle b cantor set have been formulated and solved by means of fractal Laplace transformation. Numerical simulations based on the derived solutions have been performed where an LC circuit has been studied by means of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms. The nonlocal fractal calculus-based Lagrangian and Hamiltonian equations have been derived and the local fractal calculus-based ones have been revisited. Findings The author has found that the LC circuit defined on a middle b cantor set become a physically unsound system due to the unreasonable associated Hamiltonian unless the local fractal calculus has been applied instead. Originality/value For the first time, the nonlocal fractal calculus-based analyses of electrical circuits with arbitrary source terms have been performed where those circuits with order higher than 1 have also been analyzed. For the first time, the nonlocal fractal calculus-based Lagrangian and Hamiltonian equations have been proposed. The revised contradiction free local fractal calculus-based Lagrangian and Hamiltonian equations have been presented. A comparison of local and nonlocal fractal calculus in terms of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms have been made where a drawback of the nonlocal one has been pointed out.

Relationship between Continuum of Hurst Exponents of Noise-like Time Series and the Cantor Set

In this paper, we have modified the Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) using the ternary Cantor set. We propose a modification of the DFA algorithm, Cantor DFA (CDFA), which uses the Cantor set theory of base 3 as a scale for segment sizes in the DFA algorithm. An investigation of the phenomena generated from the proof using real-world time series based on the theory of the Cantor set is also conducted. This new approach helps reduce the overestimation problem of the Hurst exponent of DFA by comparing it with its inverse relationship with α of the Truncated Lévy Flight (TLF). CDFA is also able to correctly predict the memory behavior of time series.

Uniformization of Cantor sets with bounded geometry

In this note we provide a quasisymmetric taming of uniformly perfect and uniformly disconnected sets that generalizes a result of MacManus [Rev. Mat. Iberoamericana 15 (1999), pp. 267–277] from 2 to higher dimensions. In particular, we show that a compact subset of R n \mathbb {R}^n is uniformly perfect and uniformly disconnected if and only if it is ambiently quasiconformal to the standard Cantor set C \mathcal {C} in R n + 1 \mathbb {R}^{n+1} .

On Kakeya Conditions for Achievement Sets

We prove that for each infinite subset C of $${\mathbb {N}}$$ N there exists a sequence $$(x_n)$$ ( x n ) such that $$\{n: x_n>r_n\}=C$$ { n : x n > r n } = C and the achievement set $$A(x_n)$$ A ( x n ) is a Cantor set. Moreover, we show that it is possible to construct a sequence $$(x_n)$$ ( x n ) such that the set $$\{n: x_n>r_n\}$$ { n : x n > r n } has asymptotic density $$\alpha $$ α for each $$\alpha \in [0,1)$$ α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ) and $$A(x_n)$$ A ( x n ) is a Cantorval.

On the Mean Residual Life of Cantor-Type Distributions: Properties and Economic Applications

In this paper, we consider the mean residual life (MRL) function of the Cantor distribution and study its properties. We show that the MRL function is continuous at all points, locally decreasing at all points outside the Cantor set and has a unique fixed point which we explicitly determine. These properties readily extend to the parametric family of p-singular, Cantor type distributions introduced by Mandelbrot (1983). The findings offer evidence that, contrary to common perceptions, Cantor-type distributions are tractable enough to be considered for practical applications. We provide such an example from the field of economics in which Cantor-type distributions can be used to model markets with recurrent bandwagon effects and show that earlier anticipated bandwagon effects lead to higher monopolistic prices. We conclude with a simple implementation of the algorithm by Chalice (1991) to plot Cantor-type distributions.
