Abstract

We consider the family of measures with values in a reflexive Banach space. In we introduce the notion of a Markov operator and using an extension of the Fortet-Mourier norm we show some criteria of the asymptotic stability. Asymptotically stable Markov operators can be used to construct coloured fractals.

Keywords

vector measures, Fortet-Mourier norm, Markov operators, asymptotic stability, iterated function systems
