Our aim is to find the minimal Hausdorff dimension of the union of scaled and/or rotated copies of the $k$-skeleton of a fixed polytope centered at the points of a given set. For many of these problems, we show that a typical arrangement in…

We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\R^n\to\R^m, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal projections which guarantee that the Hausdorff dimension formula $\dim A\cap P_{\lambda}^{-1}\{u\}=s-m$ holds generically for measurable…

I. J. Good (1941) showed that the set of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose partial quotients $a_n$ tend to infinity is of Hausdorff dimension $1/2$. A number of related results impose restrictions of the type $a_n\in B$ or $a_n\geq f(n)$,…

Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),a_3(x),\cdots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of $x\in (0,1)$. This paper is concerned with certain sets of continued fractions with non-decreasing partial quotients. As a main result, we obtain the Hausdorff…

We obtain positive lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of sets of real numbers given by expressions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{a_n b_n}$, where $b_n$ satisfies some growth condition and $a_n$ lies in some set, possibly…

Let $A$ be an isotropic, sub-gaussian $m \times n$ matrix. We prove that the process $Z_x := \|Ax\|_2 - \sqrt m \|x\|_2$ has sub-gaussian increments. Using this, we show that for any bounded set $T \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, the deviation of…

Arithmetic progressions of length $3$ may be found in compact subsets of the reals that satisfy certain Fourier -- as well as Hausdorff -- dimensional requirements. It has been shown that a very similar result holds in the integers under…

Let $(R,{\frak{m}}_R)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring. Assuming that ${\frak{m}}_R=$$I\oplus J$ is a direct sum decomposition, where $I$ and $J$ are non-zero ideals of $R$, we describe the structure of the Tor algebra of $R$ in…

We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…

Let $E \subseteq R^n$ be a closed set of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$. For $m \geq n$, let $\{B_1,\ldots,B_k\}$ be $n \times (m-n)$ matrices. We prove that if the system of matrices $B_j$ is non-degenerate in a suitable sense, $\alpha$ is…

We study the problem of Nadler and Quinn from 1972, which asks whether, given an arc-like continuum $X$ and a point $x \in X$, there exists an embedding of $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ for which $x$ is an accessible point. We develop the notion of…

Investigating a model of scale-invariant random spatial network suggested by Aldous, Kendall constructed a random metric $T$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, for which the distance between points is given by the optimal connection time, when travelling…

We study the existence of infinite-dimensional invariant tori in a mechanical system of infinitely many rotators weakly interacting with each other. We consider explicitly interactions depending only on the angles, with the aim of…

The first result of the paper (Theorem 1.1) is an explicit construction of unimodal maps that are semiconjugate, on the post-critical set, to the circle rotation by an arbitrary irrational angle $\theta\in(3/5,2/3)$. Our construction is a…

In many low-dimensional dynamical systems transport coefficients are very irregular, perhaps even fractal functions of control parameters. To analyse this phenomenon we study a dynamical system defined by a piece-wise linear map and…

Every sufficiently big matrix with small spectral norm has a nearby low-rank matrix if the distance is measured in the maximum norm (Udell & Townsend, SIAM J Math Data Sci, 2019). We use the Hanson--Wright inequality to improve the estimate…

We study the properties of sets $\Sigma$ which are the solutions of the maximal distance minimizer problem, i.e. of sets having the minimal length (one-dimensional Hausdorff measure) over the class of closed connected sets $\Sigma \subset…

Let $(X_n)$ be an unbounded sequence of finite, connected, vertex transitive graphs such that $ |X_n | = o(diam(X_n)^q)$ for some $q>0$. We show that up to taking a subsequence, and after rescaling by the diameter, the sequence $(X_n)$…

For the interaction energy with repulsive-attractive potentials, we give generic conditions which guarantee the radial symmetry of the local minimizers in the infinite Wasserstein distance. As a consequence, we obtain the uniqueness of…

We consider systems of multiple Brownian particles in one dimension that repel mutually via a logarithmic potential on the real line, more specifically the Dyson model. These systems are characterized by a parameter that controls the…
