Self-Similar Structures and Fractal Transforms in Approximation Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
An overview is given of the methods for treating complicated problems without small parameters, when the standard perturbation theory based on the existence of small parameters becomes useless. Such complicated problems are typical of quantum physics, many-body physics, physics of complex systems, and various aspects of applied physics and applied mathematics. A general approach for dealing with such problems has been developed, called Self-Similar Approximation Theory. A concise survey of the main ideas of this approach is presented, with the emphasis on the basic notion of group self-similarity. The techniques are illustrated by examples from quantum field theory.

Self-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 کاملFractal Population Ecology Theory
Abstract Purpose - The aim of this paper is to describe the population ecology theory through fractal thinking, an emergent human operating system that is creative, adaptive, healthy, and evolutionary; furthermore, a parallel is drawn between the population ecology model and the fractal structure. Top-down hierarchies are typically characterized by command and control systems of the authority t...
متن کاملTransmission properties of one dimensional fractal structures
In this paper, the optical properties of one dimensional fractal structures are investigated. We consider six typical fractal photonic structures: the symmetric dual cantor-like fractal structure, the asymmetric dual cantor-like fractal structure, the single cantor-like fractal structure, the symmetric dual golden-section fractal structure, the asymmetric dual golden-section fractal structure a...
متن کاملGeneralized fractal transforms and self-similar objects in cone metric spaces
We use the idea of a scalarization of a cone metric to prove that the topology generated by any cone metric is equivalent to a topology generated by a related metric. We then analyze the case of an ordering cone with empty interior and we provide alternative definitions based on the notion of interior cone. Finally we discuss the implications of such cone metrics in the theory of iterated funct...
متن کاملA Note on Belief Structures and S-approximation Spaces
We study relations between evidence theory and S-approximation spaces. Both theories have their roots in the analysis of Dempsterchr('39')s multivalued mappings and lower and upper probabilities, and have close relations to rough sets. We show that an S-approximation space, satisfying a monotonicity condition, can induce a natural belief structure which is a fundamental block in evidence theory...
