We determine polynomial eigenfunctions of $T .$ As a consequence, we obtain eigenvalues of $H$ and natural polynomial approximations of the self-similar measure. Bernoulli convolutions are studied as an example.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-12-07T14:07:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "28A80", "37C30" ], "keywords": [ "self-similar measure", "transfer operator", "natural polynomial approximations", "determine polynomial eigenfunctions", "bernoulli convolutions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
