We give a brief overview of the theory of complex dimensions of real (archimedean) fractal strings via an illustrative example, the ordinary Cantor string, and a detailed survey of the theory of p-adic (nonarchimedean) fractal strings and their complex dimensions. Moreover, we present an explicit volume formula for the…

Labyrinth fractals are self-similar dendrites in the unit square that are defined with the help of a labyrinth set or a labyrinth pattern. In the case when the fractal is generated by a horizontally and vertically blocked pattern, the arc between any two points in the fractal has infinite length [Cristea\&Steinsky 2009…

Labyrinth fractals are dendrites in the unit square. They were introduced and studied in the last decade first in the self-similar case [Cristea & Steinsky (2009,2011)], then in the mixed case [Cristea & Steinsky (2017), Cristea & Leobacher (2017)]. Supermixed fractals constitute a significant generalisation of mixed l…

Many 0/1 datasets have a very large number of variables; on the other hand, they are sparse and the dependency structure of the variables is simpler than the number of variables would suggest. Defining the effective dimensionality of such a dataset is a nontrivial problem. We consider the problem of defining a robust m…

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…
