Our proof is based solely on the self-similarity and hypercubic symmetry of the associated Dirichlet form and on several very basic pieces of the theory of regular symmetric Dirichlet forms. We also present an application of this fact to the singularity of the energy measures with respect to the symmetric measure in this case, proved first by M.\\ Hino in [\\emph{Probab.\\ Theory Related Fields} \\textbf{132} (2005), no.\\ 2, 265--290].", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-05-05T22:42:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "28A80", "31C25", "31E05", "35K08", "60G30", "60J60" ], "keywords": [ "walk dimension", "brownian motion", "sierpiński carpets", "elementary proof", "regular symmetric dirichlet forms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
