Explicit interpolations among the Sierpinski, Rauzy, and Apollonian gaskets

Bernat Espigule

Abstract

We study explicit interpolations organized around the affine Sierpinski gasket. The affine-projective family connects the Sierpinski gasket with the Rauzy gasket; the conformal family connects the Sierpinski gasket with the equilateral Apollonian gasket. The boundary-normalized endpoint places the distinguished side on $[0,1]$ and identifies the Rauzy and Apollonian sides through the same fractional transformations on the base segment.

Finite approximants

All displayed fractals are finite-level approximants of the maps defined in the manuscript.
