Selfsimilar Fractals and Selfsimilar Random Fractals

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Progress in Probability ((PRPR,volume 46))

Abstract

We survey the application of contraction mapping arguments to selfsimilar (nonrandom) fractal sets, measures and functions. We review the results for selfsimilar random fractal sets and measures and show how the method and extensions also work for selfsimilar random fractal functions.
