MSc Math Defence: Attractors and Semi Attractors of IFS
CANDIDATE: MAXWELL FITZSIMMONS
ABSTRACT:
It is well known that a finite set of contractive self maps on a metric space, called an iterated function system (IFS), admit a nonempty compact invariant set called the attractor of the IFS. It is also well known that the chaos game converges to ``draw'' the attractor.

ABSTRACT:
Computational modeling can be used to reveal insights into the mechanisms and potential side effects of a new drug. Here we will focus on two major diseases: diabetes, which affects 1 in 10 people in North America, and hypertension, which affects 1 in 3 adults.
