We investigate the properties of the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor of the iterated function system (IFS) {γx,λx,λx+1}. Since two maps have the same fixed point, there are very complicated overlaps, and it is not possible to directly apply known techniques. We give a formula for the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor for Lebesgue almost all parameters (γ,λ), γ < λ. This result only holds for almost all parameters: we find a dense set of parameters (γ,λ) for which the Hausdorff dimension...

We investigate properties of the zero of the subadditive pressure which is a most important tool to estimate the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor of a non-conformal iterated function system (IFS). Our result is a generalization of the main results of Miao and Falconer [Fractals 15 (2007)] and Manning and Simon [Nonlinearity 20 (2007)].

We consider iterated function systems on the interval with random perturbation. Let $Y_{\epsilon }$ be uniformly distributed in [1-ε,1+ ε] and let $f_i\in C^{1+\alpha }$ be contractions with fixpoints $a_i$. We consider the iterated function system $Y_{\epsilon }{f}_i+a_i(1-Y_{\epsilon }){ⁿ}_{i=1}$, where each of the maps is chosen with probability $p_i$. It is shown that the invariant density is in L² and its L² norm does not grow faster than 1/√ε as ε vanishes. The proof relies on defining a piecewise hyperbolic dynamical system on the cube with an SRB-measure whose projection is the...
