The conformal model of Geometric Algebra suggests an intimate connection between mathematics and perception, in particular in the handling of the problem of infinity. The observed properties of phenomenal perspective suggest an extension to Hestenes’ conformal mapping by adding a second conformal stage that maps the infinity of external reality to a finite double conformal map. Mathematics Subj...

we present a conformal theory for the random fractal fields. As an example, the density of the porous matter is considered. The equation that expresses density in terms of a nonfractal field is evaluated. Assuming the hypothesis of scale and conformal symmetry for the latter, we derive the correlation functions for density. The log-normal conformal model is studied. @ 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd....

We discuss the conformal boundary of a warped product of two length spaces and provide a method to calculate this in terms of the individual conformal boundaries. This technique is then applied to produce CAT(0)-spaces with complicated conformal boundaries. Finally we prove that the conformal boundary of an Hadamard n-manifold is always simply connected for n ≥ 3, thus providing a bound for the...

In this paper we introduce and explore conformal parabolic iterated function systems. We deene and study topological pressure, Perron-Frobenius type operators, semi-conformal and conformal measures and the Hausdorr dimension of the limit set. With every parabolic system we associate an innnite hyperbolic conformal iterated function system and we employ it to study geometric and dynamical featur...

We study the correlation functions of logarithmic conformal field theories. First, assuming conformal invariance, we explicitly calculate two– and three– point functions. This calculation is done for the general case of more than one logarithmic field in a block, and more than one set of logarithmic fields. Then we show that one can regard the logarithmic field as a formal derivative of the ord...

3D surface classification is a fundamental problem in computer vision and computational geometry. Surfaces can be classified by different transformation groups. Traditional classification methods mainly use topological transformation groups and Euclidean transformation groups. This paper introduces a novel method to classify surfaces by conformal transformation groups. Conformal equivalent clas...

We characterize the geometry of the Hamiltonian dynamics with a conformal metric. After investigating the Eisenhart metric, we study the corresponding conformal metric and obtain the geometric structure of the classical Hamiltonian dynamics. Furthermore, the equations for the conformal geodesics, for the Jacobi field along the geodesics, and the equations for a certain flow constrained in a fam...
