Families of infinite parabolic IFS with overlaps: the approximating method

Abstract: This work is devoted to the study of families of infinite parabolic iterated function systems (PIFS) on a closed interval parametrized by vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with overlaps. We show that the Hausdorff dimension and absolute continuity of ergodic projections through a family of infinite PIFS are decided \emph{a.e.} by the growth rate of the entropy and Lyapunov exponents of the families of truncated PIFS with respect to the concentrating measures, under transversality of the family essentially. We also give an estimation on the upper bound of the Hausdorff dimension of parameters where the corresponding ergodic projections admit certain dimension drop. The setwise topology on the space of finite measures enables us to approximate a family of infinite systems by families of their finite truncated sub-systems, which plays the key role throughout our work.
