We study parabolic iterated function systems (IFS) with overlaps on the real line and measures associated with them. A Borel probability measure μ on the coding space projects into a measure ν on the limit set of the IFS. We consider families of IFS satisfying a transversality condition. In [SSU2] sufficient conditions were found for the measure ν to be absolutely continuous for Lebesgue-a.e. p...

We give a model of a robot’s finger and we use the methods of the theory of iterated function systems to study the asymptotic reachability set. We provide a technique for the approximation of the asymptotic reachable set and we show an explicit description of such a set in a particular case.

We present experimental evidence on two forms of iterated reasoning in games, i.e. backward induction and interactive knowledge. Besides reliable estimates of the cognitive skills of the subjects, our design allows us to disentangle two possible explanations for the observed limits in performed iterated reasoning: Restrictions in subjects' cognitive abilities and their beliefs concerning the ra...

Low-dimensional iterated map models have been widely used to study action potential dynamics in isolated cardiac cells. Coupled iterated map models have also been widely used to investigate action potential propagation dynamics in one-dimensional (1D) coupled cardiac cells, however, these models are usually empirical and not carefully validated. In this study, we first developed two coupled ite...

Abstract We consider the iterated function system Fn = fn ◦ . . . ◦ f2 ◦ f1 formed from the holomorphic functions in the family H(∆,Ω). The analog of stable behavior for such systems is that the limit functions be constant. We prove that a necessary and sufficient condition for stable behavior for all iterated function systems formed from H(∆, Ω) is that Ω be a proper subset of ∆. We also prove...

In this paper we introduce and explore conformal parabolic iterated function systems. We deene and study topological pressure, Perron-Frobenius type operators, semi-conformal and conformal measures and the Hausdorr dimension of the limit set. With every parabolic system we associate an innnite hyperbolic conformal iterated function system and we employ it to study geometric and dynamical featur...

This paper deals with analytic families of holomorphic iterated function systems. Using real analyticity of the pressure function (which we prove), we establish a classification theorem for analytic families of holomorphic iterated function systems which depend continuously on a parameter when the space of holomorphic iterated function systems is endowed with the λ-topology. This classification...

Languages are transmitted from person to person and generation to generation via a process of iterated learning: people learn a language from other people who once learned that language themselves. We analyze the consequences of iterated learning for learning algorithms based on the principles of Bayesian inference, assuming that learners compute a posterior distribution over languages by combi...

in this article we consider relative iteration of entire functions and studycomparative growth of the maximum term of iterated entire functions withthat of the maximum term of the related functions.
