Properties of triangulations obtained by the longest-edge bisection

Francisco Perdomo, Ángel Plaza (2014)

Open Mathematics

The Longest-Edge (LE) bisection of a triangle is obtained by joining the midpoint of its longest edge with the opposite vertex. Here two properties of the longest-edge bisection scheme for triangles are proved. For any triangle, the number of distinct triangles (up to similarity) generated by longest-edge bisection is finite. In addition, if LE-bisection is iteratively applied to an initial triangle, then minimum angle of the resulting triangles is greater or equal than a half of the minimum angle...

Quasiconformal dimensions of self-similar fractals.

Jeremy T. Tyson, Jang-Mei Wu (2006)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

The Sierpinski gasket and other self-similar fractal subsets of Rd, d ≥ 2, can be mapped by quasiconformal self-maps of Rd onto sets of Hausdorff dimension arbitrarily close to one. In R2 we construct explicit mappings. In Rd, d ≥ 3, the results follow from general theorems on the equivalence of invariant sets for iterated function systems under quasisymmetric maps and global quasiconformal maps. More specifically, we present geometric conditions ensuring that (i) isomorphic systems have quasisymmetrically...
