GENERALIZED ITERATED FUNCTION SYSTEMS ON HYPERBOLIC NUMBER PLANE

Abstract

Iterated function systems provide the most fundamental framework to create many fascinating fractal sets. They have been extensively studied when the functions are affine transformations of Euclidean spaces. This paper investigates the iterated function systems consisting of affine transformations of the hyperbolic number plane. We show that the basics results of the classical Hutchinson–Barnsley theory can be carried over to construct fractal sets on hyperbolic number plane as its unique fixed point. We also discuss about the notion of hyperbolic derivative of an hyperbolic-valued function and then we use this notion to get some generalization of cookie-cutter Cantor sets in the real line to the hyperbolic number plane.
