We study infinite iterated functions systems (IIFSs) consisting of bi-Lipschitz mappings instead of conformal contractions, focusing on IFSs that do not satisfy the open set condition. By assuming the logarithmic distortion property and some cardinality growth condition, we obtain a formula for the Hausdorff, box, and packing dimensions of the limit set in terms of certain topological pressure. By assuming, in addition, the weak separation condition, we show that these dimensions are equal to the growth dimension of the limit set.

We study affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties in the affine flag manifold of an algebraic group, and in particular the question, which affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties are non-empty. Under mild assumptions on the group, we provide a complete answer to this question in terms of the underlying affine root system. In particular, this proves the corresponding conjecture for split groups stated in \cite{GHKR2}. The question of non-emptiness of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties is closely related to the relationship between certain natural stratifications of moduli spaces of abelian varieties in positive characteristic.
