Approximation of measures by Markov processes and homogeneous affine iterated function systems (English)
It is shown that under certain conditions, attractive invariant measures for iterated function systems (indeed for Markov processes on locally compact spaces) depend continuously on parameters of the system. We discuss a special class of iterated function systems, the homogeneous affine ones, for which an inverse problem is easily solved in principle by Fourier transform methods. We show that a probability measure \(\mu\) on \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\) can be approximated by invariant measures for finite iterated function systems of this class if \({\hat \mu}\)(t)/\({\hat \mu}\)(a\({}^ Tt)\) is positive definite for some nonzero contractive linear map a: \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\to {\mathbb{R}}^ n\). Moments and cumulants are also discussed.
