Chaos game for IFSs on topological spaces (Q898864)

A topological IFS, \(\mathcal{W}\), is a normal Hausdorff topological space \(X\) together with a finite collection of continuous functions \(w_i:X\rightarrow X\), for \(i=1,\dots,N\). A compact subset \(A\) of \(X\) is an attractor of \(\mathcal{W}\) if it admits an open neighborhood \(U\) such that \(W^{k}(S)\rightarrow A\) as \(k\rightarrow\infty\) for all nonempty compact subset \(S\) in \(U\), where \(W\) is the Hutchinson operator. In the paper under review, after some basic definitions and examples concerning attractors, the authors examine, in Section 3, the properties of the (pointwise) basins of attraction. In Section 4, they prove that, under very general conditions, the chaos game yield attractors of topological IFS.
