Abstract. A new type of fractal measures Xs, 1 < s < 2, defined on the subsets of the graph of a continuous function is introduced. The ^-dimension defined by this measure is 'closer' to the Hausdorff dimension than the other fractal dimensions in recent literatures. For the Weierstrass type functions defined by W(x) = £S°'k-aig()Jx), where X > 1 , 0 < a < 1 , and g is an almost periodic Lipschitz function of order greater than a , it is shown that thê -dimension of the graph of W equals to 2 -a , this conclusion is also equivalent to certain rate of the local oscillation of the function. Some problems on the ' knot ' points and the nondifferentiability of W are also discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
