1 Fractals and Fractal Dimensions John A. Rock July 13th, 2009
2 begin with [0,1] remove 1 of length 1/3 remove 2 of length 1/9 remove 4 of length 1/27 remove 8 of length 1/ remove 16 of length 1/243 and in the limit is the Cantor set Figure 1: Construction of the Cantor set Ω CS. Keep track of lengths l n and multiplicities m n at every stage n, but distinguish between the open and closed intervals.
3 [0,1] Ω CS Figure 2: The Cantor string Ω CS : the complement of the Cantor set x1/27 8 x1/81 2 x1/9 1/3 Figure 3: The lengths of the Cantor string. For the Cantor set, the sequence of lengths L of the disjoint open intervals that make up its complement, called the Cantor string Ω CS, are: L = { l n = 3 n each length has multiplicity m n = 2 n 1 }.
4 Definition 1. The geometric zeta function of a fractal string Ω with lengths L is ζ L (s) = where Re s > dim B ( Ω). l s j = j=1 m n ln, s Theorem 2. If a fractal string Ω (a bounded, open set) in [0, 1] is of total length 1 and has an infinite number of lengths in its sequence L, then { } dim B ( Ω) = inf σ R m n ln σ <, where Ω = [0, 1] \ Ω.
5 The Cantor set Ω CS has dimension D = dim B ( Ω) = log 3 2. How s that? ζ L (s) = = = = m n ln s 2 n 1 3 ns 2 n 1 3 ns 3 s s Thus, when is the denominator of the fraction equal to 0? s = 0 1/2 = 3 s s = log 3 1/2 s = log 3 2.
6 Measures! A measure is like a function on sets, but with sensible restrictions. For instance, let V U and U n for n N be some intervals in [0, 1] and let β be a (positive) measure on [0, 1]. Then, β( ) : {intervals in [0,1]} R + 0 { }, β( ) = 0, β(u) 0, β(u) β(v ), and under certain other conditions (such as having the U n disjoint), ( ) β U n = β(u n ).
7 Figure 4: The first few stages in the construction of a mass distribution β on the Cantor set. At each stage, mass is split from the previous stage in ratios of 1/3 on the left and 2/3 on the right. How should we collect the intervals in a meaningful way in order to generate? What did you come up with? Remember that binomial coefficients yield the multiplicities of the masses at every step. They are: ( ) n = k n! k!(n k)!, where k is the number of powers of 2 in the weight, and n is the stage.
8 Figure 5: The solid black blocks correspond to the closed intervals with regularity α(1, 2). Consider the exponent α is the exponent that satisfies U α = µ(u). Equivalently, we have the following definition: Definition 3. The regularity α(u) of a (Borel) measure µ on a subset U [0, 1] with range in [0, ] is α(u) = log µ(u) log U, where = λ( ) is the Lebesgue measure on [0, 1].
9 Figure 6: The solid black blocks correspond to the closed intervals with regularity 1/2. For the intervals U in the family P, the possible mass values are β(u) = 2k 3 with length U = 1 n 3. So, the regularity values are n α(u) = log 2k 3 n log 1 3 n. To exploit the properties of logarithms and in order to come up with families of sequences of lengths, let k 1 be the number of powers of 2 that appear in the mass β(u). Let k 2 be the number of stages it took to get the k 1 powers of 2. Then, let n be the index of the clump of stages with k 2 steps. What do we get?
10 Figure 7: The solid black blocks correspond to the closed intervals with regularity α(1, 2). For the measure σ and the family P of partitions given by the open and closed intervals in the construction of the Cantor set, the regularity values are α = α(k 1, k 2 ) = log (2nk 1 /3nk 2 ) log (1/3 nk 2 ) = 1 k 1 k 2 log 3 2, where k 1 and k 2 are relatively prime non-negative integers such that k 1 < k 2. Thus, ( ) ζ β P (α(k nk2 1, k 2 ), s) = 3 nk2s, nk 1 for Res large enough.
11 Here s the big idea: What are the dimensions associated with the measure β? For each regularity α(k 1, k 2 ) we get a partition zeta function, and these functions have unique real numbers at which they diverge. Then, as with geometric zeta functions, these values yield a dimension associated with the a given regularity. ζ β P (α(k 1, k 2 ), s) = ( ) nk2 3 nk2s, nk 1 So, determine where these functions diverge. Piece of cake!
12 σ dim (supp( ν)) M 1 log (1/2)log Figure 8: Graph of the abscissa of convergence function f for the measure β. The measure β is multifractal. In our setting, this means that the distribution of weight generates a spectrum of dimensions. The abscissa of convergence function f for the measure β has the form ( ) (α 1) (α 1) f(α) = log 3 2 log 3 ( 1 + (α 1) log 3 2 α log 3 2 ) log 3 ( 1 + ) (α 1). log 3 2
13 σ dim (supp( ν)) M 1 log (1/2)log Figure 9: Graph of the abscissa of convergence function f for the measure β. The maximum of f is attained at α = α(1, 2) = 1 (1/2) log 3 2 and this value coincides with the box dimension of the support of the measure β. That is, dim B (supp(β)) = max{ f(α) α = α(k 1, k 2 )} α = log 3 2.
14 Homework. Really. 1. Prove that the total length (or initial length) does not affect the box dimension of a fractal string with sequence of lengths L = {l j } j=1. 2. Prove that for the measure β, the maximum value of f is attained at α = α(1, 2) = 1 (1/2) log 3 2. BIG hint: This was done in my thesis.
