Given an iterated function system (IFS) of contractive similitudes, the\ntheory of Gromov hyperbolic graph on the IFS has been established recently. In\nthe paper, we introduce a notion of simple augmented tree which is a Gromov\nhyperbolic graph. By generalizing a combinatorial device of rearrangeable\nmatrix, we show that there exists a near-isometry between the simple augmented\ntree and the symbolic space of the IFS, so that their hyperbolic boundaries are\nLipschitz equivalent. We then apply this to consider the Lipschitz equivalence\nof self-similar sets with or without assuming the open set condition. Moreover,\nwe also provide a criterion for a self-similar set to be a Cantor-type set\nwhich completely answers an open question raised in citeLaLu13. Our study\nextends the previous works.\n
