Self-tiling fractal using one size of tile vs. does not tile itself with a single size of itself.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	CROSSREFS	`This is BP344 ("rep-tiles") but for fractals.` `See BP1119 for the version with multiple different sizes of tile allowed.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP527 BP528 BP529 BP530 BP531 * BP533 BP534 BP535 BP536 BP537`

Contains self somewhere within any area around any point within self vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Very similar to the less clearly-defined solution "tiles itself with infinitely many copies (different sizes allowed) vs. does not".` `The left hand side of this is a weaker condition than the left hand side of BP1241.`

Tiled by finitely many smaller copies of itself (different sizes allowed) vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`These are sometimes called "irreptiles".`

No same-sized copies of self overlap vs. distinct same-sized copies overlap.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`With mathematical jargon:` `No distinct same-sized copies of self overlap on a subset with positive measure in the Hausdorff measure using the Hausdorff dimension.` `For a covering of a fractal by finitely many scaled down copies of itself, the condition of that no two have an intersection with positive measure is equivalent to the condition that the Hausdorff dimension coincides with the similarity dimension.` `(There is another similar condition in this context called the "open set condition" which implies this but is not equivalent. The open set condition is equivalent to the condition that the Hausdorff measure using the similarity dimension is nonzero.)`

Fractal topologically closed (each white point has a neighborhood of pure white surrounding it) vs. not

Any point contained in (arbitrarily) smaller version of self vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Note if any point is contained in some smaller version of the whole, then any point is contained in arbitrarily smaller versions of the whole.` `It isn't possible to unambiguously communicate in a picture whether or not a few specific points are included in the fractal. The pictures are interpreted as what is intuitively simplest. To make matters less ambiguous, all the fractals here contain all points arbitrarily close to points in them. (They are topologically closed. See also BP1239.)` `The left hand side of this is a stronger condition than the left hand side of BP1116.`
