“Iterated Function Systems and the Inverse Problem”

We introduce iterated function systems, a subset of discrete dynamical systems. A few examples of self similar sets generated by such systems and motivation for the inverse problem of approximation are given. We show some work towards a practical solution of the inverse problem, speci

“Schnorr Randomness”

We will show that the notion of Schnorr randomness is consistent with intuition and leads to the desired statistical properties of random sets. Also we will prove the nice facts we have stated about the Schnorr test.

“Stronger Notions of Randomness”

Last semester we studied Martin-Lof randomness, and the weaker notion of Schnorr ran- domness. We will now introduce 2-randomness and weak 2-randomness, which are stronger notions than Martin-Lof randomness.
