Abstract

Let 0 < λ < μ < 1 and λ + μ > 1. In this paper, we prove that for the vast majority of such parameters the top of the planar attractor Aλ,μ of the IFS {(λx,μy), (μx + 1 − μ,λy + 1 − λ)} is the graph of a continuous, strictly increasing function. Despite this, for most parameters, Aλ,μ has a lower box dimension strictly greater than 1, showing that the upper boundary is not representative of the complexity of the fractal. Finally, we prove that if λμ ≥ 2−1/6, then Aλ,μ has a non-empty interior.
