Space filling curve

$begingroup$


Let $C$ be the Cantor set. Then the Cantor function $f:C to [0,1]$ can be extended to $F:[0,1]to [0,1]$ linearly as the end points of an removed interval takes the same value. For example $f(1/3)=f(2/3)$.



But in order to get the space filling curve, the map $g:C to [0,1]×[0,1]$ can't be extended linearly to [0,1] as $g(1/3)≠g(2/3)$. Then how to extend the map $g$ from $C$ to all over [0,1] to get a continuous space filling curve?



Edit: For any $t in C$, $t$ can be written uniquely as $t=0.(2a_1)(2a_2)(2a_3) dots $(base 3), where $a_i$ is either 0 or 1.



$f(t)=0.a_1a_2a_3dots$(base 2)



$g(t)=(x(t),y(t))$, where $x(t)=0.a_1a_3a_5dots$(base 2) and $y(t)=0.a_2a_4a_6dots$(base 2)

    You should perhaps explain what the Cantor function is. The relevant property is that it is continuous surjection. What is the map $g$?

Let us collect some well-known facts about the Cantor set $C$. Usually it is defined by iteratively deleting the open middle third from each closed line segment in a finite disjoint union of such segments. Start by deleting the open middle third from the interval $[0, 1]$ which leaves $[0,1/3] cup [2/3,1]$ and continue as described.



Fact 1. The map $varphi : P = prod_{n=1}^infty {0, 1 } to C, varphi((x_n)) = sum_{n=1}^infty frac{2x_n}{3^n}$, is a homeomorphism. Here the infinite product $P$ of copies of the discrete space ${0, 1 }$ is of course endowed with the product topology.



Fact 2. There exists a continuous surjection $f : C to [0,1]$. In fact, define $psi : P to [0,1], psi((x_n)) = sum_{n=1}^infty frac{x_n}{2^n}$. Then $f = psi varphi^{-1}$ will do.



Fact 3. There exists a homeomorphism $h : C to C times C$. In fact, we have the obvious homeomorphism $H : P to P times P, H((x_n)) = ((x_1,x_3,x_5,dots), (x_2,x_4,x_6,dots))$.



Now define
$$g = (f times f) h : C to [0,1] times [0,1] .$$
This is a continuous surjection. The Tietze extension theorem gives us a continuous extension $G : [0,1] to [0,1] times [0,1]$ which is again a continuous surjection. See for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tietze_extension_theorem.



You can also directly define an extension $G$ without applying Tietze's theorem. On each of the removed open intervals $(a,b)$ let $G(t) = (1-frac{t-a}{b-a})g(a) + frac{t-a}{b-a}g(b)$ (note that $[0,1] times [0,1]$ is a convex subset of $mathbb{R}^2$). It can easily be shown that $G$ is continuous.

How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

Image
3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title.
