Abstract

We study not necessarily self-similar Dirichlet forms on the Sierpiński gasket that can be described as limits of compatible resistance networks on the sequence of graphs approximating the gasket. We describe the compatibility conditions in detail, and we also present an alternative description, based on just 3 conductance values and the 3-dimensional space of harmonic functions. In addition, we show how to parameterize all the Dirichlet forms by a set of independent variables.
