Dimension (in)equalities and H\"older continuous curves in fractal percolation

Probability 2012-03-08 v2

Abstract

We relate various concepts of fractal dimension of the limiting set C in fractal percolation to the dimensions of the set consisting of connected components larger than one point and its complement in C (the "dust"). In two dimensions, we also show that the set consisting of connected components larger than one point is a.s. the union of non-trivial H\"older continuous curves, all with the same exponent. Finally, we give a short proof of the fact that in two dimensions, any curve in the limiting set must have Hausdorff dimension strictly larger than 1.
