A fractal dimension estimate for a graph-directed IFS of non-similarities

Abstract

Suppose a graph-directed iterated function system consists of maps f_e with upper estimates of the form d(f_e(x),f_e(y)) <= r_e d(x,y). Then the fractal dimension of the attractor K_v of the IFS is bounded above by the dimension associated to the Mauldin--Williams graph with ratios r_e. Suppose the maps f_e also have lower estimates of the form d(f_e(x),f_e(y)) >= r'_e d(x,y) and that the IFS also satisfies the strong open set condition. Then the fractal dimension of the attractor K_v of the IFS is bounded below by the dimension associated to the Mauldin--Williams graph with ratios r'_e. When r_e = r'_e, then the maps are similarities and this reduces to the dimension computation of Mauldin & Williams for that case.

Weighted inequalities in ergodic theory via transference

We first extend Calderón's transfer principle to weighted spaces in various different settings under suitable assumptions. Then we apply our results for some inequalities on the real line obtained by the author to prove corresponding inequalities in ergodic theory and ergodic $H^1$ spaces as well.

Wavelet resolution and Sobolev regularity of Calderón-Zygmund operators on domains

Given a uniform domain $Ω\subset {\mathbb R}^d$, we resolve each element of a suitably defined class of Calderòn-Zygmund (CZ) singular integrals on $Ω$ as the linear combination of Triebel wavelet operators and paraproduct terms. Our resolution formula entails a testing type characterization, loosely in the vein of the David-Journé theorem, of weighted Sobolev space bounds in terms of Triebel-Lizorkin and tree Carleson measure norms of the paraproduct symbols, which is new already in the case $Ω={\mathbb R}^d$ with Lebesgue measure. Our characterization covers the case of compressions to $Ω$ of global CZ operators, extending and sharpening past results of Prats and Tolsa for the convolution case. The weighted estimates we obtain, particularized to the Beurling operator on a Lipschitz domain with normal to the boundary in the corresponding sharp Besov class, may be used to deduce quantitative estimates for quasiregular mappings with dilatation in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(Ω)$, $p>2$.
