Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$ and $E$ be a set in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. The distance set of $E$ is defined by $\Delta(E):=\{\lVert x-y \rVert :x,y\in E\}$, where $\lVert \alpha \rVert=\alpha_1^2+\dots+\alpha_d^2$. Iosevich,…

This paper establishes connections between the group-Fourier transform and the geometry of measures in the Heisenberg group. Firstly, it is shown that if the Fourier transform of a compactly supported, finite, Radon measure is square…

Let $R$ be a finite valuation ring of order $q^r$ where $q$ is odd and $A$ be a subset of $R$. In the present paper, we prove that there exists a point $u$ in the Cartesian product set $A\times A\subset R^2$ such that the size of the pinned…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p>2$ and $A\subset F$ have sufficiently small cardinality in terms of $p$. We improve the state of the art of a variety of sum-product type inequalities. In particular, we prove that $$ |AA|^2|A+A|^3…

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…

We improve upon an Omega result due to Soundararajan with respect to general trigonometric polynomials having positive Fourier coefficients. Instead of Dirichlet's approximation theorem we employ the resonance method and this leads to…

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 <…

We prove that if $\alpha\in (0,1/2]$, then the packing dimension of a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ for which there exists a set of lines of dimension $1$ intersecting $E$ in dimension $\ge \alpha$ is at least $1/2+\alpha+c(\alpha)$ for some…

For a fixed $\theta^2=1/m$, $m \in \mathbb{N}_+$, let $x \in [0, \theta)$ and $[a_1(x) \theta, a_2(x) \theta, \ldots]$ be the $\theta$-expansion of $x$. Our first goal is to extend for $\theta$-expansions the results of Jarnik \cite{J-1928}…

In this paper, we study the problem of finding the Euclidean distance to a convex cone generated by a set of discrete points in $\mathbb{R}^n_+$. In particular, we are interested in problems where the discrete points are the set of feasible…

In this paper, we determine the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points with divergent trajectories on the product of certain homogeneous spaces. The flow is allowed to be weighted with respect to the factors in the product space. The…

For an infinite iterated function system $\mathbf{f}$ on $[0,1]$ with an attractor $\Lambda(\mathbf{f})$ and for an infinite subset $D\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, consider the set \[ \mathbb E(\mathbf{f},D)= \{ x \in \Lambda(\mathbf{f}):…

In this paper it is shown that if $E\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is an $s$-AD regular compact set, with $s\in [n-\frac12,n)$, and $E$ is contained in a hyperplane or, more generally, in an $n$-dimensional $C^1$ manifold, then the Hausdorff…

We show that if the upper Assouad dimension of the compact set $E\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is positive, then given any $D>\dim_{A}E$ there is a measure with support $E$ and upper Assouad (or regularity) dimension $D$. Similarly, given any…

Let X be a compact topological space, and let D be a subset of X. Let Y be a Hausdorff topological space. Let f be a continuous map of the closure of D to Y such that f(D) is open. Let E be any connected subset of the complement (to Y) of…

The connected part of a metric space $E$ is defined to be the union of non-trivial connected components of $E$. We proved that for a class of self-affine sets called slicing self-affine sponges, the connected part of $E$ either coincides…

In this paper, we study inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation with rational numbers of reduced form. The central object to study is the set $W(f,\theta)$ as follows, \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{x\in [0,1]:\left…

We establish the dimension version of Falconer's distance set conjecture for sets of equal Hausdorff and packing dimension (in particular, for Ahlfors-regular sets) in all ambient dimensions. In dimensions $d=2$ or $3$, we obtain the first…

Let $E$ be a two-dimensional real normed space. In this paper we show that if the unit circle of $E$ does not contain any line segment such that the distance between its endpoints is greater than 1, then every transformation $\phi\colon…

We consider the Hausdorff dimension of the divergence set on which the pointwise convergence $\lim_{t\rightarrow 0} e^{it\sqrt{-\Delta}} f(x) = f(x)$ fails when $f \in H^s(\mathbb R^d)$. We especially prove the conjecture raised by…
