In a previous paper, dealing with Applications in $mathbb{R}^1$, the authors developed a new approach to the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of an iterated function system or IFS and studied some applications in one dimension. The key idea, which has been known in varying degrees of generality for many years, is to associate to the IFS a parametrized family of positive, linear, Perron-Frobenius operators $L_s$. In our context, $L_s$ is studied in a space of $C^m$ functions and is not compact. Nevertheless, it is has a strictly positive $C^m$ eigenfunction $v_s$ with positive eigenvalue $lambda_s$ equal to the spectral radius of $L_s$. Under appropriate assumptions on the IFS, the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of the IFS is the value $s=s_*$ for which $lambda_s =1$. To compute the Hausdorff dimension of an IFS associated to complex continued fractions, (which may arise from an infinite iterated function system), we again approximate the eigenvalue problem by a collocation method, but now using continuous piecewise bilinear functions. Using the theory of positive linear operators and explicit a priori bounds on the partial derivatives of the strictly positive eigenfunction $v_s$, we are able to give rigorous upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimension $s_*$, and these bounds converge to $s_*$ as the mesh size approaches zero. We also demonstrate by numerical computations that improved estimates can be obtained by the use of higher order piecewise tensor product polynomial approximations, although the present theory does not guarantee that these are strict upper and lower bounds. An important feature of our approach is that it also applies to the much more general problem of computing approximations to the spectral radius of positive transfer operators, which arise in many other applications.

In [14], the authors developed a new approach to the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of an iterated function system or IFS. In this paper, we extend this approach to incorporate high order approximation methods. We again rely on the fact that we can associate to the IFS a parametrized family of positive, linear, Perron-Frobenius operators $L_s$, an idea known in varying degrees of generality for many years. Although $L_s$ is not compact in the setting we consider, it possesses a strictly positive $C^m$ eigenfunction $v_s$ with eigenvalue $R(L_s)$ for arbitrary $m$ and all other points $z$ in the spectrum of $L_s$ satisfy $|z| le b$ for some constant $b < R(L_s)$. Under appropriate assumptions on the IFS, the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of the IFS is the value $s=s_*$ for which $R(L_s) =1$. This eigenvalue problem is then approximated by a collocation method at the extended Chebyshev points of each subinterval using continuous piecewise polynomials of arbitrary degree $r$. Using an extension of the Perron theory of positive matrices to matrices that map a cone $K$ to its interior and explicit a priori bounds on the derivatives of the strictly positive eigenfunction $v_s$, we give rigorous upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimension $s_*$, and these bounds converge rapidly to $s_*$ as the mesh size decreases and/or the polynomial degree increases.
We develop a new approach to the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of an iterated function system or IFS. In the one dimensional case, our methods require only C^3 regularity of the maps in the IFS. The key idea, which has been known in varying degrees of generality for many years, is to associate to the IFS a parametrized family of positive, linear, Perron-Frobenius operators L_s. The operators L_s can typically be studied in many different Banach spaces. Here, unlike most of the literature, we study L_s in a Banach space of real-valued, C^k functions, k >= 2; and we note that L_s is not compact, but has a strictly positive eigenfunction v_s with positive eigenvalue lambda_s equal to the spectral radius of L_s. Under appropriate assumptions on the IFS, the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of the IFS is the value s=s_* for which lambda_s =1. This eigenvalue problem is then approximated by a collocation method using continuous piecewise linear functions (in one dimension) or bilinear functions (in two dimensions). Using the theory of positive linear operators and explicit a priori bounds on the derivatives of the strictly positive eigenfunction v_s, we give rigorous upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimension s_*, and these bounds converge to s_* as the mesh size approaches zero.

We compare two families of continued fractions algorithms, the symmetrized Rosen algorithm and the Veech algorithm. Each of these algorithms expands real numbers in terms of certain algebraic integers. We give explicit models of the natural extension of the maps associated with these algorithms; prove that these natural extensions are in fact conjugate to the first return map of the geodesic flow on a related surface; and, deduce that, up to a conjugacy, almost every real number has an infinite number of common approximants for both algorithms.

We give an exponential upper bound on the probabilitywith which the denominator of the $n$th convergent in the regular continued fraction expansion stays away from the mean $frac{npi^2}{12log2}$. The exponential rate is best possible, given by an analytic function related to the dimension spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for the Gauss transformation.
