Abstract
We call a metric space -negligible iff its -dimensional Hausdorff measure vanishes. We show that every countably -rectifiable subset of can be displaced from every -negligible subset by a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism that is arbitrarily -close to the identity. As a consequence, every countably -rectifiable and -negligible subset of is arbitrarily symplectically squeezable. Both results are sharp w.r.t. the parameter in the -negligibility assumption. The proof of our squeezing result uses folding. Potentially, our folding method can be modified to show that the Gromov width of equals for every countably -rectifiable closed subset of the open unit ball . This means that is not a barrier.
