摘要
In this paper the Hausdorff measure of sets of integral and fractional dimensions was introduced and applied to control systems. A new concept, namely, pseudo-self-similar set was also introduced. The existence and uniqueness of such sets were then proved, and the formula for calculating the dimension of self-similar sets was extended to the pseudo-self-similar case. Using the previous theorem, it was shown that the reachable set of a control system may have fractional dimensions. It is expected that as a new approach the geometry of fractal sets will be a proper tool to analyze the controllability and observability of nonlinear systems.
