Intermediate dimensions of complementary sets

Abstract

Given a positive, non-increasing sequence aa with finite sum equal to 11, we consider the family of all closed subsets of [0,1][0,1] whose complementary open intervals have lengths given by a rearrangement of the sequence aa. We study the full range of possible θ\theta-intermediate dimensions of these sets and, under suitable assumptions on the sequence, we show that this range forms a closed interval, whose endpoints we compute explicitly. This paper fills a gap in the literature concerning the dimensional properties of complementary sets.
