Abstract

We study the analogue of a convex interpolant of two sets on Sierpinski gaskets and an associated notion of measure transport. The structure of a natural family of interpolating measures is described and an interpolation inequality is established. A key tool is a good description of geodesics on these gaskets, some results on which have previously appeared in the literature.

Highlights

  • The study of functional inequalities in the setting of fractal metric-measure spaces is considerably less developed

  • In the case of certain fractal sets and sets with fractal boundary in Euclidean space, one achievement of the theory developed by Lapidus and collaborators is a characterization of the volume of -neighborhoods using complex dimensions, which in turn are connected to analytic structure on the set through the zeta function of its Laplacian [14]

  • The purpose of this paper is to consider the elementary notion of convex interpolant in the setting of one well-studied class of fractals, the Sierpinski gaskets Sn defined on regular n-simplices in Rn

Summary

Preliminaries

The Sierpinski n-gasket Sn ⊆ Rn is the unique nonempty compact attractor of the iterated function system (IFS). A measure μn of this type is a probability measure determined uniquely from a set of weights {μin}ni=0, where each μin > 0 and i μin = 1, by the requirement that for any measurable X ⊆ Sn one has the self-similar identity μn(X) = μinμn(Fi−1(X)). The measure on interpolant sets will be a projection of the original self-similar measure, and will be self-similar itself This is a consequence of the following results, which are well-known when each Fi is a homothety, as it is here. In the setting of Lemma 1.2, let K denote the attractor of the IFS and μ be the self-similar measure on K with weights μi. The pushforward measure φ∗μ satisfies the self-similar identity φ∗μ(X) = μiφ∗μ(Fi−1(X)).
