Fourier frequencies in affine iterated function systems

We examine two questions regarding Fourier frequencies for a class of iterated function systems (IFS). These are iteration limits arising from a fixed finite families of affine and contractive mappings in $\br^d$, and the ``IFS'' refers to such a finite system of transformations, or functions. The iteration limits are pairs $(X, μ)$ where $X$ is a compact subset of $\br^d$, (the support of $μ$) and the measure $μ$ is a probability measure determined uniquely by the initial IFS mappings, and a certain strong invariance axiom. The two questions we study are: (1) existence of an orthogonal Fourier basis in the Hilbert space $L^2(X,μ)$; and (2) the interplay between the geometry of $(X, μ)$ on the one side, and the spectral data entailed by possible Fourier bases.

Harmonic analysis and dynamics for affine iterated function systems

We introduce a harmonic analysis for a class of affine iteration models in $\br^d$. Using Hilbert-space geometry, we develop a new duality notion for affine and contractive iterated function systems (IFSs) and we construct some identities for the Fourier transform of the measure corresponding to infinite Bernoulli convolutions.

Methods from multiscale theory and wavelets applied to non-linear dynamics

We show how fundamental ideas from signal processing, multiscale theory and wavelets may be applied to non-linear dynamics. The problems from dynamics include iterated function systems (IFS), dynamical systems based on substitution such as the discrete systems built on rational functions of one complex variable and the corresponding Julia sets, and state spaces of subshifts in symbolic dynamics. Our paper serves to motivate and survey our recent results in this general area. Hence we leave out some proofs, but instead add a number of intuitive ideas which we hope will make the subject more accessible to researchers in operator theory and systems theory.

Wavelets on Fractals

We develop the theory of multiresolutions in the context of Hausdorff measure of fractional dimension between 0 and 1. While our fractal wavelet theory has points of similarity that it shares with the standard case of Lebesgue measure on the line, there are also sharp contrasts. These are stated in our main result, a dichotomy theorem. The first section is the case of the middle-third Cantor set. This is followed by a review of the essentials on Hausdorff measure. The remaining sections of the paper cover multiresolutions in the general context of affine iterated function systems.
