Abstract

A Lauwerier-type limiting case of a folded-towel diffeomorphism is considered. Its existence confirms the conjecture made previously that differentiable dynamical systems may possess bifractal (self-similar, in two directions) basin boundaries. A procedure how to search for such boundaries in realistic systems is indicated.
