Introduction: The Disturbance Constant c
A usual fixed point iteration looks like this:z0 = s
z1 = f(z0)
z2 = f(z1)
zn+1 = f(zn)
A constant c added to the iteration can be viewed as a disturbance disturbing the usual fixed point iteration:
z0 = s
z1 = f(z0) + c
z2 = f(z1) + c
zn+1 = f(zn) + c
A more general approach is just not to add the constant c:
z0 = s
z1 = f(z0,c)
z2 = f(z1,c)
zn+1 = f(zn,c)
Disturbing the disturbance
What if the disturbance c is a function(disturbance) of c itself ?z0 = s
c0 = c
z1 = f(z0,c0)
c1 = g(c0)
z2 = f(z1,c1)
c2 = g(c1)
zn+1 = f(zn,cn)
cn+1 = g(cn)
Keeping the perfectness perfect
Unfortunately I'm not a mathematician and proving anything fractal is out of my scope.As far as I have found out by trial and error is: perfectness (inifinite apple manikins)
is preserved under the condition that the disturbance c stays constant with the start value c periodically.
E.g. g(c) = 1/c, results in c,1/c,c,1/c,c,1/c
E.g. g(c) = -c, results in c,-c,c,-c,c,-c
By the way 1/c and -c are Babbage Functions (Involutions): Wiki Functional Equations
