Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$. Iosevich and Rudnev (2005) proved that for any set $A\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$, if $|A|\gg q^{\frac{d+1}{2}}$, then the distance set $\Delta(A)$ contains a positive proportion of all…

Given a connected open set $U\ne\emptyset$ in $ R^d$, $d\ge 2$, a relatively closed set $A$ in $U$ is called \emph{unavoidable in $U$}, if Brownian motion, starting in $x\in U\setminus A$ and killed when leaving $U$, hits $A$ almost surely…

Let $E$ be a Frechet-Montel space and $(E_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ be a finite dimensional unconditional decomposition of $E$ with $\dim(E_n)\leq k$ for some fixed $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and for all $n \in \mathbb{N}$. Consider a sequence…

We consider the convex subset $[A,B]$ of all elements between two levels $A$ and $B$ of a finite distributive lattice, as a union of (or covered by) intervals $[a,b]$. A 1988 result of Voigt and Wegener shows that for such convex subsets of…

We consider expanding maps such that the unit interval can be represented as a full symbolic shift space with bounded distortion. There are already theorems about the Hausdorff dimension for sets defined by the set of accumulation points…

We prove that subsets of ${\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 4$ of large enough Hausdorff dimensions contain vertices of an equilateral triangle. It is known that additional hypotheses are needed to assure the existence of equilateral triangles in two…

Intermediate dimensions were recently introduced to interpolate between the Hausdorff and box-counting dimensions of fractals. Firstly, we show that these intermediate dimensions may be defined in terms of capacities with respect to certain…

Let $I=[0,1)$, $b\in \{2,3,\ldots\}$ and $f:I\to I$ be an injective piecewise $\frac{1}{b}$-affine map, that is, assume that there exists a partition of $I$ into intervals $I_1,\ldots,I_n$ such that $\vert f(x)-f(y)\vert\le\frac1b \vert…

We define and study two classes of uncountable $\subseteq^*$-chains: Hausdorff towers and Suslin towers. We discuss their existence in various models of set theory. Then, some of the results and methods are used to provide examples of…

In their celebrated paper [Ramsey-Type Theorems, Discrete Appl. Math. 25 (1989) 37-52], Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal asked the following: is it true, that for any finite graph H there exists a constant c(H) such that for any finite graph G, if G…

In a recent paper [Adv. Math. 305:165--196, 2017], Komornik et al.~proved a long-conjectured formula for the Hausdorff dimension of the set $\mathcal{U}_q$ of numbers having a unique expansion in the (non-integer) base $q$, and showed that…

We show that given any six numbers $r,s,t,u,v,w \in (0,1]$ satisfying $r \leq s \leq \min(t,u) \leq \max(t,u) \leq v \leq w$, it is possible to construct a compact subset of $[0,1]$ with Hausdorff dimension equal to $r$, lower modified box…

Falconer proved that there are sets $E\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ of Hausdorff dimension $n/2$ whose distance sets $\{|x-y| : x,y\in E\}$ are null with respect to Lebesgue measure. This led to the conjecture that distance sets have positive…

Topological semimetals, such as Dirac, Weyl, or line-node semimetals, are gapless states of matter characterized by their nodal band structures and surface states. In this work, we consider layered (topologically trivial) insulating systems…

L\"uroth series, like regular continued fractions, provide an interesting identification of real numbers with infinite sequences of integers. These sequences give deep arithmetic and measure-theoretic properties of subsets of numbers…

In this article we aim to investigate the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points $x \in [0,1)$ such that for any $r\in\mathbb{N},$ \begin{align*} a_{n+1}(x)a_{n+2}(x)\cdots a_{n+r}(x)\geq e^{\tau(x)(h(x)+\cdots+h(T^{n-1}(x)))} {align*}…

We study the fine scaling properties of sets satisfying various weak forms of invariance. For general attractors of possibly overlapping bi-Lipschitz iterated function systems, we establish that the Assouad dimension is given by the…

We investigate gaps of $n$-term arithmetic progressions $x, x+y, \ldots, x+(n-1)y$ inside a positive measure subset $A$ of the unit cube $[0,1]^d$. If lengths of their gaps $y$ are evaluated in the $\ell^p$-norm for any $p$ other than $1,…

In this paper we derive new upper bounds for the densities of measurable sets in R^n which avoid a finite set of prescribed distances. The new bounds come from the solution of a linear programming problem. We apply this method to obtain new…

Given finite configurations $P_1, \dots, P_n \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, let us denote by $\mathbf{m}_{\mathbb{R}^d}(P_1, \dots, P_n)$ the maximum density a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ can have without containing congruent copies of any…
