In 1994, John Cobb asked: given $N>m>k>0$, does there exist a Cantor set in $\mathbb R^N$ such that each of its projections into $m$-planes is exactly $k$-dimensional? Such sets were described for $(N,m,k)=(2,1,1)$ by L.Antoine (1924) and…

Hausdorff measure and Hausdorff dimension are useful tools to describe fractals. This paper investigates the bounds on the $d\log_32$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the $d$-fold Cartesian product of the $1/3$ Cantor set, $\mathcal C^d$.…

Given a sequence of subsets A_n of {0,...,n-1}, the Furstenberg correspondence principle provides a shift-invariant measure on Cantor space that encodes combinatorial information about infinitely many of the A_n's. Here it is shown that…

We consider Cantor measures on the line, with contraction factor $N^{-1}=p^{-\alpha}$ (where $p$ a positive prime, $\alpha$ a positive integer) and $m$ positive integer digits lying in distinct residue classes modulo $N$. We obtain a…

A class of ultrametric Cantor sets $(C, d_{u})$ introduced recently in literature (Raut, S and Datta, D P (2009), Fractals, 17, 45-52) is shown to enjoy some novel properties. The ultrametric $d_{u}$ is defined using the concept of {\em…

We show that for a large class of planar $1$-dimensional random fractals $S$, the Favard length $\operatorname{Fav}(S(r))$ of the neighborhood $S(r)$ is comparable to $\log^{-1}(1/r)$, matching a universal lower bound; up to now, this was…

In 1994, J.Cobb constructed a tame Cantor set in $\mathbb R^3$ each of whose projections into $2$-planes is one-dimensional. We show that an Antoine's necklace can serve as an example of a Cantor set all of whose projections are…

We consider a model of randomness for self-similar Cantor sets of finite and positive $1$-Hausdorff measure. We find the sharp rate of decay of the probability that a Buffon needle lands $\delta$-close to a Cantor set of this particular…

We show that products of sufficiently thick Cantor sets generate trees in the plane with constant distance between adjacent vertices. Moreover, we prove that the set of choices for this distance has non-empty interior. We allow our trees to…

In 1954 Marstrand proved that if K is a subset of R^2 with Hausdorff dimension greater than 1, then its one-dimensional projection has positive Lebesgue measure for almost-all directions. In this article, we give a combinatorial proof of…

We consider (not self-similar) Cantor sets defined by a sequence of piecewise linear functions. We prove that the dimension of the harmonic measure on such a set is strictly smaller than its Hausdorff dimension. Some Hausdorff measure…

This survey synthesizes the principal descriptive set-theoretic perspectives on deterministic Cantor sets on the real line and charts directions for future study. After recounting their historical genesis and compiling an up-to-date…

A new lower bound for the maximal length of a multivector is obtained. It is much closer to the best known upper bound than previously reported lower bound estimates. The maximal length appears to be unexpectedly large for $n$-vectors, with…

We consider a fractal with a variable fractal dimension, which is a generalization of the well known triadic Cantor set. In contrast with the usual Cantor set, the fractal dimension is controlled using a scaling factor, and can vary from…

We consider digits-deleted sets or Cantor-type sets with $\beta$-expansions. We calculate the Hausdorff dimension $d$ of these sets and show that $d$ is continuous with respect to $\beta$. The $d$-dimentional Hausdorff measure of these sets…

We recall the definition of the $\epsilon$-distortion complexity of a set defined in \cite{bcc} and the results obtained in this paper for Cantor sets of the interval defined by iterated function systems. We state an analogous definition…

After the correction of an inaccurate result in the reference, the author uses five different methods, and gets five different inequalities on the Hausdorff measure of the Cartesian product of the middle third Cantor set with itself: $$H^s…

For any $0 < \alpha <1$, we construct Cantor sets on the parabola of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$ such that they are Salem sets and each associated measure $\nu$ satisfies the estimate $\|{\widehat{f d\nu}}\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)} \leq C_p…

We prove that the dimension of the harmonic measure of the complementary of a translation-invariant type of Cantor sets as a continuous function of the parameters determining these sets. This results extend a previous one of the author and…

Let $C$ be the middle-third Cantor set. Define $C*C=\{x*y:x,y\in C\}$, where $*=+,-,\cdot,\div$ (when $*=\div$, we assume $y\neq0$). Steinhaus \cite{HS} proved in 1917 that \[ C-C=[-1,1], C+C=[0,2]. \] In 2019, Athreya, Reznick and Tyson…
