THEORETICAL PROPERTIES OF FRACTAL DIMENSIONS FOR FRACTAL STRUCTURES

Hausdorff dimension, which is the oldest and also the most accurate model for fractal dimension, constitutes the main reference for any fractal dimension definition that could be provided. In fact, its definition is quite general, and is based on a measure, which makes the Hausdorff model pretty desirable from a theoretical point of view. On the other hand, it turns out that fractal structures provide a perfect context where a new definition of fractal dimension could be proposed. Further, it has been already shown that both Hausdorff and box dimensions can be generalized by some definitions of fractal dimension formulated in terms of fractal structures. Given this, and being mirrored in some of the properties satisfied by Hausdorff dimension, in this paper we explore which ones are satisfied by the fractal dimension definitions for a fractal structure, that are explored along this work.
