✦ Synopsis


This paper answers positively the open question of whether or not the Sierpiński curve is homogeneous with respect to monotone open maps. It constructs a monotone open map from the Sierpiński curve onto the Sierpiński curve. The map takes a boundary point of a complementary region onto a point which is not a boundary point of a complementary region and vice versa. We construct the map by building a continuous decomposition of the Sierpiński curve so that the decomposition space is homeomorphic to the Sierpiński curve. Each decomposition element is a nondegenerate cellular continuum except for one which is a simple closed curve: the boundary of a complementary region.

## Abstract Crossing numbers of Sierpiński graphs __S__(__n__,__k__) and their regularizations __S__^+^(__n__,__k__) and __S__^++^(__n__,__k__) are studied. Drawings of these graphs are presented and proved to be optimal for __S__^+^(__n__,__k__) and __S__^++^(__n__,__k__) for every __n__ ≥ 1 and _

As an application of Roth's theorem concerning the rational approximation of algebraic numbers, two sufficiency conditions are derived for an alternating series of rational terms to converge to a transcendental number. The first of these conditions represents an extension of an earlier condition of
