Abstract: In this paper we consider a class of conjugate equations, which generalizes de Rham's functional equations. We give sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions under two different series of assumptions. We consider regularity of solutions. In our framework, two iterated function systems are associated with a series of conjugate equations. We state local regularity by using the invariant measures of the two iterated function systems with a common probability vector. We give several examples, especially an example such that infinitely many solutions exists, and a new class of fractal functions on the two-dimensional standard Sierpinski gasket which are not harmonic functions or fractal interpolation functions. We also consider a certain kind of stability.


Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be non-empty sets. Let \(I\) be a finite set. Assume that for \(i\in I\), a subset \(X_i \subset X\), and two maps \(f_i:X_i \to X\) and \(g_i:X_i \times Y\to Y\) are given. The author investigates the system of simultaneous functional equations \[ \phi(f_i(x))=g_i(x,\phi(x)),\quad x\in X_i,\quad i\in I, \] in the unknown function \(\phi\). The functional equation above is a generalization of de Rham's functional equation. Let \(I =\{0, 1,\dots,N-1\}\), \(N>1\) and let \((Y,d_Y)\) be a complete metric space. Assume that for each \(i\in I\) a map \(g_i:X_i \times Y \to Y\) is given. Under a long set of assumptions on maps \(f_i\) and \(g_i\), both existence and uniqueness of a bounded solution \(\phi\) of the above system are proved. Assuming that \((X,d_X)\) and \((Y,d_Y)\) are compact metric spaces and requiring a long set of conditions, results of regularity of the solutions of the system are given. A series of interesting examples is then produced and the last results of the paper are about stability of the solutions.
