ABSTRACT
Many real phenomena may be modelled as random closed sets in Rd, of different Hausdorff dimensions. The problem of the estimation of pointwise mean densities of absolutely continuous, and spatially inhomogeneous, random sets with Hausdorff dimension n < d; has been the subject of extended mathematical analysis by the authors. In particular, two different kinds of estimators have been recently proposed, the first one is based on the notion of Minkowski content, the second one is a kernel-type estimator generalizing the well-known kernel density estimator for random variables. The specific aim of the present paper is to validate the theoretical results on statistical properties of those estimators by numerical experiments. We provide a set of simulations which illustrates their valuable properties via typical examples of lower dimensional random sets.

We consider the existence and uniqueness of the farthest point of a given set A in a Banach space E from a given point x in the space E. It is assumed that A is a convex, closed, and bounded set in a uniformly convex Banach space E with FrÃ©chet differentiable norm. It is shown that, for any...

Hausdorff measure and Hausdorff dimension are the important mathematical fundamentals in fractal analysis. Contradictory conclusions have been made in the research of the definition of Hausdorff measure. In this paper, an analysis is made on the variation of the approximated Hausdorff measure as...

We employ thermodynamic formalism for the study of conformal iterated function systems (IFS) $$\mathcal S = \{\phi _i\}_{i \in I}$$ with arbitrary overlaps, and of measures $$\mu$$ on limit sets $$\Lambda$$ , which are projections of equilibrium measures $$\hat{\mu }$$ with respect to a...

We study the distribution of the orbits of real numbers under the beta-transformation $T_{{\it\beta}}$ for any ${\it\beta}>1$. More precisely, for any real number ${\it\beta}>1$ and a positive function ${\it\varphi}:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{+}$, we determine the Lebesgue measure and the...

We present a way to study the conformal structure of random planar maps. The main idea is to explore the map along an SLE (Schramm-Loewner evolution) process of parameter $${ \kappa = 6}$$ and to combine the locality property of the SLE together with the spatial Markov property of the underlying...
