Lipschitz continuity of the Hausdorff dimension of self-affine sponges at Sierpinski sponges

The Hausdorff dimension of general Sierpinski carpets, [4] and [20], and the generalization on Lalley-Gatzouras carpets, [10], are today well known results, the formulas being obtain via the variational principle for the dimension. We call the multidimensional versions of these carpets Sierpinski sponges and self-affine sponges, respectively,. In this paper we show that the Hausdorff dimension of self-affine sponges, defined in R3, is a Lipschitz continuous function at Sierpinski sponges.

The Hausdorff dimension of self-affine Sierpinski sponges

We compute the Hausdorff dimension of limit sets generated by 3-dimensional self-affine mappings with diagonal matrices of the form A_{ijk}=Diag(a_{ijk}, b_{ij}, c_{i}), where 0<a_{ijk}\le b_{ij}\le c_i<1. By doing so we show that the variational principle for the dimension holds for this class.

Other trigonometric proofs of Pythagoras theorem

Only very recently a trigonometric proof of the Pythagoras theorem was given by Zimba \cite{1}, many authors thought this was not possible. In this note we give other trigonometric proofs of Pythagoras theorem by establishing, geometrically, the half-angle formula $\cosθ=1-2\sin^2 \fracθ{2}$.

Quantitative recurrence results for random walks

First, we prove a \emph{local almost sure central limit theorem} for lattice random walks in the plane. The corresponding version for random walks in the line was considered by the author in \cite{5}. This gives us a quantitative version of Pólya's Recurrence Theorem \cite{6}. Second, we prove a \emph{local almost sure central limit theorem} for (not necessarly lattice) random walks in the line or in the plane, which will also give us quantitative recurrence results. Finally, we prove an \emph{almost sure central limit theorem} for multidimensional (not necessarly lattice) random walks. This is achieved by exploiting a technique developed by the author in \cite{5}.

A Borel-Cantelli lemma and its applications

We give a version of the Borel-Cantelli lemma. As an application, we prove an almost sure local central limit theorem. As another application, we prove a dynamical Borel-Cantelli lemma for systems with sufficiently fast decay of correlations with respect to Lipschitz observables.

Hausdorff dimension of certain random self--affine fractals

In this work we are interested in the self--affine fractals studied by Gatzouras and Lalley and by the author which generalize the famous general Sierpinski carpets studied by Bedford and McMullen. We give a formula for the Hausdorff dimension of sets which are randomly generated using a finite number of self-affine transformations each one generating a fractal set as mentioned before, with some technical hypotheses. The choice of the transformation is random according to a Bernoulli measure. The formula is given in terms of the variational principle for the dimension.

Measure of full dimension for some nonconformal repellers

We prove the existence of an ergodic measure with full Hausdorff dimension for a class of nonlinear nonconformal skew-product transformations. In order to do so we establish a variational principle for the topological pressure of certain noncompact sets.
