Imagine a typical living room in a large house. It has a tiger rug on the floor, a statue of a little girl on the window sill, and an armchair. And they talk. The tiger cannot see anything except the base-board because he is lying on the floor, and the chair can only look at the opposite wall. And then the statue comes to life. The conversation that ensues is highly individual.

This self-contained book lays the foundations for a systematic understanding of potential theoretic and uniformization problems on fractal Sierpiński carpets, and proposes a theory based on the latest developments in the field of analysis on metric spaces. The first part focuses on the development of an innovative theory of harmonic functions that is suitable for Sierpiński carpets but differs from the classical approach of potential theory in metric spaces. The second part describes how this theory is utilized to prove a uniformization result for Sierpiński carpets. This book is intended for researchers in the fields of potential theory, quasiconformal geometry, geometric group theory, complex dynamics, geometric function theory and PDEs.
