Abstract

Motivated by the random covering problem and the study of Dirichlet uniform approximable numbers, we investigate the uniform random covering problem. Precisely, consider an i.i.d. sequence ω=(ωn)n1\omega=(\omega_n)_{n\geq 1} uniformly distributed on the unit circle T\mathbb{T} and a sequence (rn)n1(r_n)_{n\geq 1} of positive real numbers with limit 00. We investigate the size of the random set U(ω):={yT: N1, nN, s.t. ωny<rN}. \mathcal U (\omega):=\{y\in \mathbb{T}: \ \forall N\gg 1, \ \exists n \leq N, \ \text{s.t.} \ \| \omega_n -y \| < r_N \}. Some sufficient conditions for U(ω)\mathcal U(\omega) to be almost surely the whole space, of full Lebesgue measure, or countable, are given. In the case that U(ω)\mathcal U(\omega) is a Lebesgue null measure set, we provide some estimations for the upper and lower bounds of Hausdorff dimension.
