and
the explicit closed formulas for the
Cantor set are[7]
or
This process of removing middle thirds is
a simple example of a nite subdivision
rule. The Cantor ternary set is an
example of a fractal string.
Composition
Since the Cantor set is dened as the set
of points not excluded, the proportion
(i.e., measure) of the unit interval
remaining can be found by total length
removed. This total is the geometric
progression
Properties
Cardinality
Conservation law
It has been found that some form of
conservation law is always responsible
behind scaling and self-similarity. In the
case of Cantor set it can be seen that the
th moment (where
is the fractal
dimension) of all the surviving intervals
at any stage of the construction process
is equal to constant which is equal to one
in the case of Cantor set [10][11] . We know
that there are intervals of size
present in the system at the th
step of its construction. Then if we level
the surviving intervals as
then the th moment
is since
.
The Hausdorff dimension of the Cantor
set is equal to ln(2)/ln(3)0.631.

pictures of the Egyptian columns before
he conceived the set...? We don't known,
but it is a possibility, because Cantor's
