Dimension functions of self-affine scaling sets (Q2862955)

This paper is devoted to characterizing the properties of the dimension function of all \(A\)-dilation generalized scaling sets in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) that satisfy a self-affine equation, where \(A\) is an \(n \times n\) integral expansive matrix with \(|\det A|=2\). The paper is organized as follows. Section 1 is introductory. In Section 2, the authors introduce notation and review some known results about generalized scaling sets and multiwavelet sets. They also define the dimension function of a generalized scaling set associated with an \(n \times n\) integral expansive matrix. In Sections 3 and 4, they prove that the dimension function of any \(A\)-dilation self-affine generalized scaling set \(K\) is a constant and is equal to the Lebesgue measure of the set \(K\) in \(\mathbb{R}\) and \(\mathbb{R}^2\) respectively, where \(A\) is an \(n \times n\) integral expansive matrix with \(|\det A|=2\). This result shows that all \(A\)-dilation self-affine scaling sets must be \(A\)-dilation MRA scaling sets in dimensions one and two. Finally, in Section 5 they consider the problem in arbitrary dimensions and prove that the dimension function of a self-affine generalized scaling set is bounded by twice its Lebesgue measure.
