Multifractal structure of a riddled basin

Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2001
For a two-dimensional piecewise linear map with a riddled basin, a multifractal spectrum f(γ), which characterizes the “skeletons” of the riddled basin, is introduced. With f(γ), the uncertainty exponent is obtained by a variational principle, which enables us to introduce a concept of a “boundary” for the riddled basin.

The structure of basins of attraction and their trapping regions

Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems, 1997
In dynamical systems examples are common in which two or more attractors coexist, and in such cases, the basin boundary is nonempty. When there are three basins of attraction, is it possible that every boundary point of one basin is on the boundary of the two remaining basins? Is it possible that all three boundaries of these basins coincide? When this

Deep structure of the Mediterranean Basin

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1970
From an analysis of the seismicity of the Mediterranean basin we obtain a model of the deep structure of this region that is a further improvement to the plate tectonic theory. Taking into account the data of seismology, the gravity anomalies, volcanism and the few available data on the heat flow in this region, we conclude that the African plate is ...

The Structure of the Pacific Basin

Geological Magazine, 1934
Since the return of the St. George Expedition from the Pacific in 1925, a series of nine papers (2–8, 26, 27), describing the geology of most of the volcanic islands visited, has been published, and it is now possible to co-ordinate the results already arrived at, and to use them in an attempt to throw light on the structure of the Pacific basin.
