متن کاملFractals with Positive Length and Zero Buffon Needle Probability
It turns out that H1 is a measure, now called one-dimensional Hausdorff measure because it was generalized by Hausdorff [10] to the whole family of measures Hα, where α is any positive number (integer or noninteger). The modern theory of “fractals” is largely based on the notion of the Hausdorff dimension dimH (F) of a set F , defined by dimH (F) = inf{α > 0 : Hα(F) = 0}. We recommend the book ...
