The paper extends Hodge-de Rham theory to higher-dimensional Sierpinski gaskets.

The paper studies the dimension of limit sets using variational principles and stationary measures.

We give an overview of various counting problems for Apollonian circle packings, which turn out to be related to problems in dynamics and number theory for thin groups. This survey article is an expanded version of my lecture notes prepared for the 13th Takagi lectures given at RIMS, Kyoto in the fall of 2013.

We present recent results on counting and distribution of circles in a given circle packing invariant under a geometrically finite Kleinian group and discuss how the dynamics of flows on geometrically finite hyperbolic $3$ manifolds are related. Our results apply to Apollonian circle packings, Sierpinski curves, Schott…

Study generates infinite circle packings with a specific property.

Let H denote the standard one-point completion of a real Hilbert space. Given any non-trivial proper sub-set U of H one may define the so-called `Apollonian' metric d_U on U. When U \subset V \subset H are nested proper subsets we show that their associated Apollonian metrics satisfy the following uniform contraction p…

The main result of this paper is an effective count for Apollonian circle packings that are either bounded or contain two parallel lines. We obtain this by proving an effective equidistribution of closed horospheres in the unit tangent bundle of a geometrically finite hyperbolic 3-manifold of infinite volume, whose fun…

Classifies horocycle flow closures in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of circles of curvature at most T in any given bounded Apollonian circle packing. For an integral packing, we obtain the upper bounds for the number of circles with prime curvature as well as of pairs of circles with prime curvatures, which are sharp up constant multiples.…

The paper studies limit sets on $\mathbb{P}(\mathbb{R}^3)$ using stationary measures.

In this paper we study the equidistribution of expanding horospheres in infinite volume geometrically finite rank one locally symmetric manifolds and apply it to the orbital counting problem in apollonian sphere packing.

The paper explores orthogeodesics on hyperbolic surfaces and their integer traces.

J. Kigami has laid the foundations of what is now known as analysis on fractals, by allowing the construction of an operator of the same nature of the Laplacian, defined locally, on graphs having a fractal character. The Sierpinski gasket stands out of the best known example. It has, since then, been taken up, develope…

We consider (locally) energy finite coordinates associated with a strongly local regular Dirichlet form on a metric measure space. We give coordinate formulas for substitutes of tangent spaces, for gradient and divergence operators and for the infinitesimal generator. As examples we discuss Euclidean spaces, Riemannian…

Counting spheres in hyperbolic space with effective methods.

Several authors have pointed out the connection between Barbilian's metric introduced in 1934 and the recent study of Apollonian metrics. We provide examples of various distances that can be obtained by Barbilian's metrization procedure and we discuss the relation between this metrization procedure and important Rieman…

A brief historical perspective is first given concerning financial crashes, - from the 17th till the 20th century. In modern times, it seems that log periodic oscillations are found before crashes in several financial indices. The same is found in sand pile avalanches on Sierpinski gaskets. A discussion pertains to the…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of asymptotic self-similar sets on general doubling metric spaces by extending the notion of self-similar sets, and determine their Hausdorff dimensions, which gives an extension of Balogh and Rohner 's result. This is carried out by introducing the notions of almost similarity ma…

Confocal conics form an orthogonal net. Supplementing this net with one of the following: 1) the net of Cartesian coordinate lines aligned along the principal axes of conics, 2) the net of Apollonian pencils of circles whose foci coincide with the foci of conics, 3) the net of tangents to a conic of the confocal family…

Confirms unique eigenfunction in hyperbolic packing has maximal spectral gap.

Simplicial complexes are increasingly used to study complex system structure and dynamics including diffusion, synchronization and epidemic spreading. The spectral dimension of the graph Laplacian is known to determine the diffusion properties at long time scales. Using the renormalization group here we calculate the s…

Let P be a locally finite circle packing in the plane invariant under a non-elementary Kleinian group Gamma and with finitely many Gamma-orbits. When Gamma is geometrically finite, we construct an explicit Borel measure on the plane which describes the asymptotic distribution of small circles in P, assuming that either…

New subharmonicity concept proves conjecture on Riemannian manifolds.

Develops Kleinian Sphere Packings and Bugs, proving their arithmetic origins.

We show that every inner metric space X is the metric quotient of a complete R-tree via a free isometric action, which we call the covering R-tree of X. The quotient mapping is a weak submetry (hence, open) and light. In the case of compact 1-dimensional geodesic space X, the free isometric action is via a subgroup of …

This paper deals with both complex dynamical systems and conformal iterated function systems. We study finitely generated expanding semigroups of rational maps with overlaps on the Riemann sphere. We show that if a $d$-parameter family of such semigroups satisfies the transversality condition, then for almost every par…
