  • Hausdorff Measure
    Hausdorff Measure Jimmy Briggs and Tim Tyree December 3, 2016 1 1 Introduction In this report, we explore the the measurement of arbitrary subsets of the metric space (X; ρ); a topological space X along with its distance function ρ. We introduce Hausdorff Measure as a natural way of assigning sizes to these sets, especially those of smaller \dimension" than X: After an exploration of the salient properties of Hausdorff Measure, we proceed to a definition of Hausdorff dimension, a separate idea of size that allows us a more robust comparison between rough subsets of X. Many of the theorems in this report will be summarized in a proof sketch or shown by visual example. For a more rigorous treatment of the same material, we redirect the reader to Gerald B. Folland's Real Analysis: Modern techniques and their applications. Chapter 11 of the 1999 edition served as our primary reference. 2 Hausdorff Measure 2.1 Measuring low-dimensional subsets of X The need for Hausdorff Measure arises from the need to know the size of lower-dimensional subsets of a metric space. This idea is not as exotic as it may sound. In a high school Geometry course, we learn formulas for objects of various dimension embedded in R3: In Figure 1 we see the line segment, the circle, and the sphere, each with it's own idea of size. We call these length, area, and volume, respectively. Figure 1: low-dimensional subsets of R3: 2 4 3 2r πr 3 πr Note that while only volume measures something of the same dimension as the host space, R3; length, and area can still be of interest to us, especially 2 in applications.

  • On the Topological Convergence of Multi-Rule Sequences of Sets and Fractal Patterns
    Soft Computing https://doi.org/10.1007/s00500-020-05358-w FOCUS On the topological convergence of multi-rule sequences of sets and fractal patterns Fabio Caldarola1 · Mario Maiolo2 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract In many cases occurring in the real world and studied in science and engineering, non-homogeneous fractal forms often emerge with striking characteristics of cyclicity or periodicity. The authors, for example, have repeatedly traced these characteristics in hydrological basins, hydraulic networks, water demand, and various datasets. But, unfortunately, today we do not yet have well-developed and at the same time simple-to-use mathematical models that allow, above all scientists and engineers, to interpret these phenomena. An interesting idea was firstly proposed by Sergeyev in 2007 under the name of “blinking fractals.” In this paper we investigate from a pure geometric point of view the fractal properties, with their computational aspects, of two main examples generated by a system of multiple rules and which are enlightening for the theme. Strengthened by them, we then propose an address for an easy formalization of the concept of blinking fractal and we discuss some possible applications and future work.

Nesse and George C. Williams summarize its relevance to medicine: All biological traits need two kinds of explanation: proximate and evolutionary. The proximate explanation for a disease describes what is wrong in the bodily mechanism of individuals affected Curriculum Unit 09.05.09 1 of 27 by it. An evolutionary explanation is completely different. Instead of explaining why people are different, it explains why we are all the same in ways that leave us vulnerable to disease. Why do we all have wisdom teeth, an appendix, and cells that if triggered can rampantly multiply out of control? [1] A fractal is generally "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole," a property called self-similarity. The term was coined by Beno?t Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractus meaning "broken" or "fractured." A mathematical fractal is based on an equation that undergoes iteration, a form of feedback based on recursion. http://www.kwsi.com/ynhti2009/image01.html A fractal often has the following features: 1. It has a fine structure at arbitrarily small scales.
