Fractal Sets and Boundary Theory


Abstract

We discuss how the concept of a boundary can be used to describe fractal sets. This is done by two examples: 1. Polynomial endomorphisms of C2 and their Julia sets 2. Selfsimilar fractals, in particular the Sierpinski gasket.  The boundaries used are Shilov-, Martin-, Furstenberg- and Poisson-boundaries. We will show some pictures of the fractal sets arising in 1. which show many features which still are not quite well understood.
