The spatial patterns and processes of cities can be described with various entropy functions. However, spatial entropy always depends on the scale of measurement, and it is difficult to find a characteristic value for it. In contrast, fractal parameters can be employed to characterize scale-free phenomena and reflect the local features of random multi-scaling structure. This paper is devoted to...

We study the properties of spectrum and eigenstates of the Google matrix of a directed network formed by the procedure calls in the Linux Kernel. Our results obtained for various versions of the Linux Kernel show that the spectrum is characterized by the fractal Weyl law established recently for systems of quantum chaotic scattering and the Perron-Frobenius operators of dynamical maps. The frac...

The soft fault diagnosis of nonlinear analog circuits is an important guarantee of the stable and reliable operation of electronic products. In view of the low accuracy and heavy computation load of current soft fault diagnosis methods for nonlinear analog circuits, this paper presents a soft fault diagnosis method for nonlinear analog circuits based on fractal theory. Analyzing the single-frac...

Properties of Tolman-Bondi (TB) model produced by two set of initial conditions, 1) fractal density and simultaneous bang time and 2) fractal density and linear Hubble law, are studied. It is shown for the first set that for some physical resonable values of parameters of the model, the central density and the cosmological density parameter Ω0, an area of compatibility of initial conditions has...

This paper proposes two local multifractal measures motivated by blanket method for calculation of fractal dimension. They cover both fractal approaches familiar in image processing. The first two measures (proposed Methods 1 and 3) support model of image with embedded dimension three, while the other supports model of image embedded in space of dimension three (proposed Method 2). While the cl...

Abstract Most conventional statistical methods aiming at defining geochemical concentration thresholds for separating anomalies from background have limited effectiveness in areas with complex geological settings and variable lithology. In this paper, median+2MAD as a method of exploratory data analysis (EDA) and concentration-area (C-A) fractal model as two effective approaches in separation g...

The paper describes a multi-resolution algorithm based on fractal geometry for texture analysis and detection of oil spills in SAR images. The multi-resolution approach reduces the problems of speckle and sea clutter and preserves subtle variations of oil slicks. The use of fractal dimension as a feature for classification improves the oil spill detection, since enhances texture discrimination....

A scheme for generating a fractal butterfly Floquet spectrum, first proposed by Wang and Gong [Phys. Rev. A 77, 031405(R) (2008)], is extended to driven SU(2) systems such as a driven two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate. A class of driven systems without a link with the Harper-model context is shown to have an intriguing butterfly Floquet spectrum. The found butterfly spectrum shows remarkable de...

This study examines the use of the geographic information systems (GIS) in structural geomorphology to build the model of the crust based on fractal analysis of relief. Fractal theory, developed by B. Mandelbrot, used to determination morpho-bloc divisibility of the Earth’s surface. There is the traceable statistically recurring relief structure indicate the appropriate tiered hierarchy of crus...
