We study a variant of the Falconer distance problem for dot products. In particular, for fractal subsets $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $a,x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study sets of the form \[ \Pi_x^a(A) := \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R} : (a-x)\cdot y=…

We show a new method of estimating the Hausdorff measure (of the proper dimension) of a fractal set from below. The method requires computing the subsequent closest return times of a point to itself.
