Generalizing Moran's Theorem

This work is aimed by the spirit of 1946 Moran's Theorem, which ensures that both the box and the Hausdorff dimensions for any attractor could be calculated as the solution of an equation involving only its similarity factors. To achieve such result, the open set condition (OSC, herein) is required to be satisfied by the pieces of the attractor in order to guarantee that they do not overlap too much. In this paper, we generalize the classical Moran's through a fractal dimension model which allows to obtain the fractal dimension of any IFS-attractor equipped with its natural fractal structure without requiring the OSC to be satisfied.
