Abstract: Let X be a Banach space and f,g:XightarrowX be contractions. We investigate the set C_{f,g}:={win X:m{ the attractor of IFS }F_w={f,g+w}m{ is connected}}. The motivation for our research comes from papers of Mihail and Miculescu, where it was shown that Cf,g is a countable union of compact sets, provided f,g are linear bounded operators with pafpa,pagpa<1 and such that f is compact. Moreover, in the case when X is finitely dimensional, such sets have been intensively investigated in the last years, especially when f and g are affine maps. As we will be mostly interested in infinite dimensional spaces, our results can be also viewed as a next step into extending of such studies into infinite dimensional setting. In particular, unlike in the finitely dimensional case, if X has infinite dimension then Cf,g is very small set (at least nowhere dense) provided f,g satisfy some natural conditions.


Let \(X\) be a Banach space and \(f, g: X \rightarrow X\) be contractions. The authors investigate the interesting set \[ C_{f, g}:=\left\{w \in X: \text { the attractor of IFS } \mathcal{F}_{w}=\{f, g+w\} \text { is connected }\right\}. \] The main results of this paper are as follows. Theorem 2.3. Let \(X\) be a Banach space and \(f, g\) be Matkowski contractions of \(X\). Assume that \(f\) is a compact operator (i.e., \(f(D)\) is relatively compact for all bounded \(D\) ; \(f\) need not to be linear), and \(g\) satisfies one of the following conditions: (i) \(g\) is affine and Lip\((g)< 1\); (ii) Lip\((g)\leq \frac{1}{2}\). Then the set \(C_{f, g}\) is a countable union of compact sets. In particular, if \(X\) is infinite dimensional, then \(C_{f, g}\) is \(\sigma\)-c-porous and nowhere dense. Theorem 2.8. Let \(X\) be an infinite dimensional Banach space and \(f, g\) be Matkowski contractions such that both \(f\) and \(g\) are compact operators. Then (i) \(C_{f, g}\) is strongly porous (in particular, nowhere dense); (ii) \(C_{f, g}\) is a countable union of compact sets, and in particular, \(\sigma\)-c-porous. For more general set than \(C_{f, g}\), namely, instead of two contractions \(f\) and \(g\), of the first author [Bull. Soc. Sci. Lett. 64, No. 2, 81--93 (2014; Zbl 1368.28001)] investigated families of contractions \(\mathcal{F}\) and \(\mathcal{G}\).
