Percolation on the Non-p.c.f. Sierpiński Gasket and Hexacarpet
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate bond percolation on the non-p.c.f. Sierpiński gasket and the hexacarpet. With the use of the diamond fractal, we are able to bound the critical probability of percolation on the non-p.c.f. gasket from above by √ 5−1 2 , or approximately 0.618. We then show how the two fractals are related via the barycentric subdivisions of a triangle: the two spaces exhibit duality properties although they are not themselves dual spaces. Finally, we conjecture that the hexacarpet has a critical probability less than 1, which would imply that both the hexacarpet and non-p.c.f. gasket have non-trivial critical probabilities of percolation.

Analysis on Products of Fractals
For a class of post–critically finite (p.c.f.) fractals, which includes the Sierpinski gasket (SG), there is a satisfactory theory of analysis due to Kigami, including energy, harmonic functions and Laplacians. In particular, the Laplacian coincides with the generator of a stochastic process constructed independently by probabilistic methods. The probabilistic method is also available for non–p...
متن کاملEnergy and Laplacian on the Sierpiński Gasket
This is an expository paper which includes several topics related to the Dirichlet form analysis on the Sierpiński gasket. We discuss the analog of the classical Laplacian; approximation by harmonic functions that gives a notion of a gradient; directional energies and an equipartition of energy; analysis with respect to the energy measure; harmonic coordinates; and non self-similar Dirichlet fo...
متن کاملColoring Sierpiński graphs and Sierpiński gasket graphs
Sierpiński graphs S(n, 3) are the graphs of the Tower of Hanoi with n disks, while Sierpiński gasket graphs Sn are the graphs naturally defined by the finite number of iterations that lead to the Sierpiński gasket. An explicit labeling of the vertices of Sn is introduced. It is proved that Sn is uniquely 3-colorable, that S(n, 3) is uniquely 3-edgecolorable, and that χ′(Sn) = 4, thus answering ...
متن کاملSome Spectral Properties of Pseudo-differential Operators on the Sierpiński Gasket
We prove versions of the strong Szëgo limit theorem for certain classes of pseudodifferential operators defined on the Sierpiński gasket. Our results used in a fundamental way the existence of localized eigenfunctions for the Laplacian on this fractal.
