Linear expansions, strictly ergodic homogeneous cocycles and fractals (Q1269776)

Consider a compact set carrying a strictly ergodic flow (action of \(\mathbb R\)), and in addition carrying a `scaling' action of \({\mathbb R}_{>0}\) that distributes over the flow. Here, such actions are exhibited as spaces of coloured tilings associated to a weighted substitution. A homogeneous cocycle is associated to the action, and it is shown that this is a realization of `fractal functions' with continuous scalings. This cocycle is used to define another self-similar process with strictly ergodic stationary increments and zero entropy. Remark: the citation [2] in the abstract is to \textit{J.-H. Dumont, T.
