Let $E$ be a set in $\mathbb R^d$ with finite $n$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $H^n$ such that $\liminf_{r\to0}r^{-n} H^n(B(x,r)\cap E)>0$ for $H^n$-a.e. $x\in E$. In this paper it is shown that $E$ is $n$-rectifiable if and only if…

We show that the space $\tilde{A}_{d}(m,n)$ consisting of all real projective classes of $(n+1)$-tuples of real coefficients homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ in $(m+1)$ variables, without common real roots except zero, has the same…

We classify all closed 1-connected manifolds $M$ which look like projective planes, i.e. with integral homology $H_*(M)=Z^3$. Furthermore, we give an explicit construction of these manifolds as Thom spaces of open disk bundles.

Let {\mathbb{V} = V x R^l : V \in G(n-l,m-l)} be the family of m-dimensional subspaces of R^n containing {0} x R^l, and let \pi_{\mathbb{V}} : R^n --> \mathbb{V} be the orthogonal projection onto \mathbb{V}. We prove that the mapping V…

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…

Here is an example of a plane set of vanishing area and consisting of line-segments whose directions cover an angle : let E be a Cantor set of dissection ratio 1/4 (therefore dimension 1/2) carried by the horizontal axis and E' the image of…

Let $L^m_p(R^n)$, $p\in [1,\infty]$, be the homogeneous Sobolev space, and let $E\subset R^n$ be a closed set. For each $p>n$ and each non-negative integer $m$ we give an intrinsic characterization of the restrictions to $E$ of $m$-jets…

We observe that Hall's free projective extension $P \mapsto F(P)$ of partial planes is a Borel map, and use a modification of the construction introduced in [9] to conclude that the class of countable non-Desarguesian projective planes is…

A central question in geometric measure theory is whether geometric properties of a set translate into analytical ones. In 1960, E. R. Reifenberg proved that if an $n$-dimensional subset $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$ is well approximated by…

We present a model of set theory, in which, for a given $n\ge2$, there exists a non-ROD-uniformizable planar lightface $\varPi^1_n$ set in $\mathbb R\times\mathbb R$, whose all vertical cross-sections are countable sets (and in fact Vitali…

In this paper we study the set of projective maps between compact proper convex real projective manifolds. We show that this set contains only finitely many distinct homotopy classes and each homotopy class has the structure of a real…

A real X is defined to be relatively c.e. if there is a real Y such that X is c.e.(Y) and Y does not compute X. A real X is relatively simple and above if there is a real Y <_T X such that X is c.e.(Y) and there is no infinite subset Z of…

We first prove that in a sigma-finite von Neumann factor M, a positive element $a$ with properly infinite range projection R_a is a linear combination of projections with positive coefficients if and only if the essential norm ||a||_e with…

It is proved that for a 3-dimensional compact metrizable space X the infinite real projective space is an absolute extensor of X if and only if the real projective plane is an absolute extensor of X.

We show that if $\mu$ is a self-affine measure on the plane defined by an iterated function system of contractions with diagonal linear parts, then under an irrationality assumption on the entries of the linear parts, $$ \dim_{\rm H} \mu…

We prove that, for every polyhedral or $C^1$ norm on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and every set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ of packing dimension $s$, the packing dimension of the distance set of $E$ with respect to that norm is at least $\tfrac{s}{d}$.…

Let $k$ be a field, $m$ a positive integer, $\mathbb{V}$ an affine subvariety of $\mathbb{A}^{m+3}$ defined by a linear relation of the form $x_{1}^{r_{1}}\cdots x_{m}^{r_{m}}y=F(x_{1}, \ldots , x_{m},z,t)$, $A$ the coordinate ring of…

We give a counterexample to a conjecture of S.E. Morris by showing that there is a compact plane set X such that R(X) has no non-zero, bounded point derivations but such that R(X) is not weakly amenable. We also give an example of a…

We characterize observable sets for 1-dim Schr\"{o}dinger equations in $\mathbb{R}$: $i \partial_t u = (-\partial_x^2+x^{2m})u$ (with $m\in \mathbb{N}:=\{0,1,\dots\}$). More precisely, we obtain what follows: First, when $m=0$,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with the unit element. It is shown that an ideal $I$ in $R$ is pure if and only if Ann$(f)+I=R$ for all $f\in I$. If $J$ is the trace of a projective $R$-module $M$, we prove that $J$ is generated by the…
