Continued Radicals And Cantor Sets, Thomas Tyler Clark

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

We examine the formation of sets homeomorphic to the ternary Cantor set by continued radicals. We determine properties of bridges and gaps and calculate the thickness of the Cantor set. From this we apply information from continued fractions to continued radicals to obtain new results. We also consider the measure of several Cantor sets.
