Spectral triples for the Sierpinski gasket (Q2253269)

The authors construct a family of spectral triples \((\mathcal{A}, \mathcal{H}, D)\), where \(\mathcal{A}\) is an algebra acting on a Hilbert space \(\mathcal{H}\) and \(D\) is the Dirac operator, for the Sierpiński triangle \(K\). For particular values of the parameters that generate \(K\), the dimensional spectrum is determined. It is shown that the associated Connes' distance is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to the distance on \(K\) induced by the Euclidean metric in \(\mathbb{R}^2\). In addition, the concept of energy dimension is introduced and explicitly computed for a suitable range of parameters.
