A homemorphism between domains in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$ is quasiconformal, with its intricate analytic and geometric consequences, if the (pointwise) linear dilatation -- a purely metric quantity -- is uniformly bounded. Gehring proved…

This paper extends some results of [M5] and [M3], in particular, removing assumptions of positive lower density. We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}^{m}, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal…

Let $t \in (1,2)$, and let $B \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a Borel set with $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} B > t$. I show that $$\mathcal{H}^{1}(\{e \in S^{1} : \dim_{\mathrm{H}} (B \cap \ell_{x,e}) \geq t - 1\}) > 0$$ for all $x \in \mathbb{R}^{2} \,…

We prove a series of results on the size of distance sets corresponding to sets in the Euclidean space. These distances are generated by bounded convex sets and the results depend explicitly on the geometry of these sets. We also use a…

The Erd\H os unit distance conjecture in the plane says that the number of pairs of points from a point set of size $n$ separated by a fixed (Euclidean) distance is $\leq C_{\epsilon} n^{1+\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$. The best known…

We consider the problem of digitalizing Euclidean segments. Specifically, we look for a constructive method to connect any two points in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The construction must be {\em consistent} (that is, satisfy the natural extension of…

Distance function to a compact set plays a central role in several areas of computational geometry. Methods that rely on it are robust to the perturbations of the data by the Hausdorff noise, but fail in the presence of outliers. The…

We prove that for any $1 \le k<n$ and $s\le 1$, the union of any nonempty $s$-Hausdorff dimensional family of $k$-dimensional affine subspaces of ${\mathbb R}^n$ has Hausdorff dimension $k+s$. More generally, we show that for any $0 <…

This paper has been withdrawn Any real number $x$ in the unit interval can be expressed as a continued fraction $x=[n_1,...,n_{_N},...]$. Subsets of zero measure are obtained by imposing simple conditions on the $n_{_N}$. By imposing…

Let $\{p_1, \ldots , p_n \} \subset {\Bbb{R}}^2$ be a separated point set, i.e., any two points have a distance at least $1$. Let $k \ge 1$ be an integer, and $1 \le t_1 < \ldots < t_k$ be real numbers. Let $\delta > 0$. Suppose for all $1…

The Hausdorff distance, the Gromov-Hausdorff, the Fr\'echet and the natural pseudo-distances are instances of dissimilarity measures widely used in shape comparison. We show that they share the property of being defined as $\inf_\rho…

A finite set of the Euclidean space is called an $s$-distance set provided the number of Euclidean distances in the set is $s$. Determining the largest possible $s$-distance set for the Euclidean space of a given dimension is challenging.…

For a fixed, compactly supported probability measure $\mu$ on the $d$-dimensional space $\mathbb{R}^d$, we consider the problem of minimizing the $p^{\mathrm{th}}$-power average distance functional over all compact, connected $\Sigma…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and $\mathcal M_X$ be the set of isometry classes of compact metric spaces $Y$ such that the Lipschitz distance $d_L(X,Y)$ is finite. We show that $(\mathcal M_X, d_L)$ is not separable when $X$ is a closed…

Given a $k$-point configuration $x\in (\mathbb{R}^d)^k$, we consider the $\binom{k}{d}$-vector of volumes determined by choosing any $d$ points of $x$. We prove that a compact set $E\subset \R^d$ determines a positive measure of such volume…

Expansions in non-integer bases have been investigated abundantly since their introduction by R\'enyi. It was discovered by Erd\H{o}s et al. that the sets of numbers with a unique expansion have a much more complex structure than in the…

We obtain box-counting estimates for the pinned distance sets of (dense subsets of) planar discrete Ahlfors-regular sets of exponent $s>1$. As a corollary, we improve upon a recent result of Orponen, by showing that if $A$ is…

For $ E\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$, let $\Delta(E)$ denote the distance set determined by pairs of points in $E$. By using additive energies of sets on a paraboloid, Koh, Pham, Shen, and Vinh (2020) proved that if $E,F\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d $…

The Mattila integral, $$ {\mathcal M}(\mu)=\int {\left( \int_{S^{d-1}} {|\widehat{\mu}(r \omega)|}^2 d\omega \right)}^2 r^{d-1} dr,$$ developed by Mattila, is the main tool in the study of the Falconer distance problem. In this paper, with…

In the literature, the Minkowski-sum and the metric-sum of compact sets are highlighted. While the first is associative, the latter is not. But the major drawback of the Minkowski combination is that, by increasing the number of summands,…
