Abstract

We generalise the notion of fractal interpolation functions (FIFs) to allow data sets of the form where I=[0,1]n. We introduce recurrent iterated function systems whose attractors G are graphs of continuous functions f:I, which interpolate the data. We show that the proposed constructions generalise the previously existed ones on . We also present some relations between FIFs and the Laplace partial differential equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Finally, the fractal dimensions of a class of FIFs are derived and some methods for the construction of functions of class Cp using recurrent iterated function systems are presented.
