The McMillan Theorem for Colored Branching Processes and Dimensions of Random Fractals
نویسنده
چکیده
For the simplest colored branching process, we prove an analog to the McMillan theorem and calculate the Hausdorff dimensions of random fractals defined in terms of the limit behavior of empirical measures generated by finite genetic lines. In this setting, the role of Shannon’s entropy is played by the Kullback–Leibler divergence, and the Hausdorff dimensions are computed by means of the so-called Billingsley–Kullback entropy, defined in the paper.

Central Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.
متن کاملSelf-similar fractals and arithmetic dynamics
The concept of self-similarity on subsets of algebraic varieties is defined by considering algebraic endomorphisms of the variety as `similarity' maps. Self-similar fractals are subsets of algebraic varieties which can be written as a finite and disjoint union of `similar' copies. Fractals provide a framework in which, one can unite some results and conjectures in Diophantine g...
متن کاملThick and thin points for random recursive fractals
We consider random recursive fractals and prove fine results about their local behaviour. We show that for a class of random recursive fractals the usual multifractal spectrum is trivial in that all points have the same local dimension. However, by examining the local behaviour of the measure at typical points in the set, we establish the size of fine fluctuations in the measure. The results ar...
متن کاملModelling Transport in Disordered Media via Diiusion on Fractals
When viewed at an appropriate scale, a disordered medium can behave as if it is strictly less than three dimensional. As fractals typically have non-integer dimensions, they are natural models for disordered media, and diiusion on fractals can be used to model transport in disordered media. In particular, such diiusion processes can be used to obtain bounds on the fundamental solution to the he...
متن کاملAsymptotically One-dimensional Diiusions on Scale-irregular Gaskets
A simple class of fractals which lack exact self-similarity is introduced, and the asymptotically one-dimensional diiusion process is constructed. The process moves mostly horizontally for very small scales, while for large scales it diiuses almost isotropically, in the sense of the oo-horizontal relative jump rate for the decimated random walks of the process. An essential step in the construc...
