Thema: Fractal geometry and dynamical systems The term "fractal" was coined by Mandelbrot in 1975 to describe highly irregular subsets of Euclidean space. Unlike d-dimensional manifolds, which locally look like an open set in R^d, fractals often have a complicated fine structure. For instance, if one zooms into the middle-third Cantor set, then more and more gaps become visible, and it is therefore difficult to give a geometric description or to make a meaningful picture of the Cantor set. Fractals are often defined by the iteration of a fixed rule (such as the removal of the middle-third for the middle third Cantor set), which indicates the close relationship between fractals and dynamical systems (i.e., iteration of maps). The goal of this course is to study the relationship between geometric properties of fractal sets (such as, fractal dimension and measure) and dynamical systems (entropy, Lyapunov exponents). A further aim is to enable the students to improve their ability to communicate in English. |

授業の内容や構成

We study notions from geometric measure theory such as fractal dimension (e.g., Hausdorff dimension or box-counting dimension) and study its basic properties. We consider dynamical systems, that is, the iteration of self-maps on spaces or group actions on spaces. The central topic is then to study dynamically defined fractal sets. Here, we focus mainly on self-similar fractals defined by Iterated Function Systems (see e.g., Falconer's textbook for an introduction). The idea of Iterated function system appears in many other dynamical systems such as iteration of rational maps or Fuchsian groups. We learn how fractal dimension is related to properties of the functions defining the Iterated Function System. We study mass distribution principles as an important technique. After getting familar with the basics, one project is to investigate continuity properties of fractal constructions and their properties. For instance, to study the dependence of Hausdorff dimension (or Hausdorff measure) on the iterated function system. This will lead us quickly to interesting recent research topics (see for example, L. OLSEN: Hausdorff and packing measure functions of self-similar sets: continuity and measurability, Ergodic Theory Dynamical systems, 2008.) |
