Abstract
Today the reproduction of pictures in journals and books is no longer possible without “information compression”. This important process needs “Iterated Function Systems”-in short IFS. Doing so, affine mappings and their properties play a fundamental role.
In this paper we distinguish between distance contracting and area contracting mappings and we investigate the connections between.
The main goal is to find a criterion which allows to decide if the iteration process of an IFS converges or not.
