Generalized Hausdorff dimension of irrationals with Lagrange value exactly 3
Abstract
We study the generalized Hausdorff dimension of some natural subsets of , where consists of the real numbers for which has infinitely many rational solutions for any but only finitely many for any . It is well known that is an uncountable set with Hausdorff dimension zero. Given any dimension function , we determine the exact "cut point" at which the generalized Hausdorff dimension drops from infinity to zero. In particular we show that such a measure is always zero or not --finite, and, as an application, we can classify topologically . Moreover, we show that the subset of attainable elements of has the same generalized Hausdorff dimension as , but the subset of non--attainable elements of has a "strictly smaller" generalized Hausdorff dimension.

This revised 28-page version refines our previous result for $K_3$ and establishes a more precise generalized Hausdorff dimension for the non--attainable elements of $k^{-1}(3)$
