For $\lambda\in(0,1/3]$ let $C_\lambda$ be the middle-$(1-2\lambda)$ Cantor set in $\mathbb R$. Given $t\in[-1,1]$, excluding the trivial case we show that \[ \Lambda(t):=\left\{\lambda\in(0,1/3]:…

In this paper we obtain the rates of convergence of the algorithms given in [13] and [14] for an automatic computation of the centered Hausdorff and packing measures of a totally disconnected self-similar set. We evaluate these rates…

We show that every finite dimensional Hausdorff (not necessarily paracompact, not necessarily second countable) $C^r$-manifold can be embedded into a weakly complete vector space, i.e. a locally convex topological vector space of the form…

In this paper we prove that among pairs $K,\,K' \subset \mathbb{C}$ of conformal dynamically defined Cantor sets with sum of Hausdorff dimensions $HD(K)+HD(K')>2$, there is an open and dense subset of such pairs verifying…

Electron-phonon ($e$-ph) interactions are pervasive in condensed matter, governing phenomena such as transport, superconductivity, charge-density waves, polarons and metal-insulator transitions. First-principles approaches enable accurate…

Let $N\ge 2$ and $\rho\in(0,1/N^2]$. The homogenous Cantor set $E$ is the self-similar set generated by the iterated function system \[ \left\{f_i(x)=\rho x+\frac{i(1-\rho)}{N-1}: i=0,1,\ldots, N-1\right\}. \] Let $s=\dim_H E$ be the…

More than 80 years ago Kolmogorov asked the following question. Let $E\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a measurable set with $\lambda^{2}(E)<\infty$, where $\lambda^2$ denotes the two-dimensional Lebesgue measure. Does there exist for every…

We prove that if $E\subseteq \R^2$ is analytic and $1<d < \dim_H(E)$, there are ``many'' points $x\in E$ such that the Hausdorff dimension of the pinned distance set $\Delta_x E$ is at least $d\left(1 -…

Let F1 and F2 be independent copies of correlated fractal percolation, with Hausdorff dimensions dimH(F1) and dimH(F2). Consider the following question: does dimH(F1)+dimH(F2)>1 imply that their algebraic difference F1-F2 will contain an…

Let $K$ be the attractor of a linear iterated function system (IFS) $S_j(x)=\rho_jx+b_j,$ $j=1,\cdots,m$, on the real line satisfying the generalized finite type condition (whose invariant open set $\mathcal{O}$ is an interval) with an…

If $(X,d)$ is a metric space then the map $f\colon X\to X$ is defined to be a weak contraction if $d(f(x),f(y))<d(x,y)$ for all $x,y\in X$, $x\neq y$. We determine the simplest non-closed sets $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ in the sense of…

Let $C_a$ be the central Cantor set obtained by removing a central interval of length $1-2a$ from the unit interval, and continuing this process inductively on each of the remaining two intervals. We prove that if $\log b/\log a$ is…

A set A of natural numbers is finitely embeddable in another such set B if every finite subset of A has a rightward translate that is a subset of B. This notion of finite embeddability arose in combinatorial number theory, but in this paper…

For $0 < \alpha \leq 1$, let $E$ be a compact subset of the $d$-dimensional moment curve in $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $N(E,\varepsilon) \lesssim \varepsilon^{-\alpha}$ for $0 <\varepsilon <1$ where $N(E,\varepsilon)$ is the smallest number…

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…

In this paper we shall show that there exists a polynomial unimodal map f: [0,1] -> [0,1] which is 1) non-renormalizable(therefore for each x from a residual set, $\omega(x)$ is equal to an interval), 2) for which $\omega(c)$ is a Cantor…

We prove that for two connected sets $E,F\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ with cardinalities greater than $1$, if one of $E$ and $F$ is compact and not a line segment, then the arithmetic sum $E+F$ has non-empty interior. This improves a recent result…

We compare Hofer's geometries on two spaces associated with a closed symplectic manifold M. The first space is the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. The second space L consists of all Lagrangian submanifolds of $M \times M$ which are…

A self-affine tiling of a compact set G of positive Lebesgue measure is its partition to parallel shifts of a compact set which is affinely similar to G. We find all polyhedral sets (unions of finitely many convex polyhedra) that admit…

A digraph $D=\langle V,E\rangle$ ($E\subset V\times V$) is Cantor if Cantor's theorem - for no set there is a surjection from it to its power set - holds in $D$, in the sense we explain. We construct a ZF formula $\varphi$ with length $494$…
