We prove that if the Hausdorff dimension of $E\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$ is greater than $\frac{d}{2}+\frac{1}{3}$, the set of gaps of $2$-chains inside $E$, $$\Delta_2(E)=\{(|x-y|, |y-z|): x, y, z\in E \}\subset\mathbb{R}^2$$ has…

We analyze a class of piecewise linear parabolic maps on the torus, namely those obtained by considering a linear map with double eigenvalue one and taking modulo one in each component. We show that within this two parameter family of maps,…

We prove new bounds on the dimensions of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar sets. Among other results, we show that if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension $s>1$, then its distance set has Hausdorff…

In this paper, we consider the isoperimetric problem in the space $\mathbb{R}^N$ with density. Our result states that, if the density f is l.s.c. and converges to a positive limit at infinity, being smaller than this limit far from the…

A set S of unit vectors in n-dimensional Euclidean space is called spherical two-distance set, if there are two numbers a and b, and inner products of distinct vectors of S are either a or b. The largest cardinality g(n) of spherical…

We show that there exists some $\delta > 0$ such that, for any set of integers $B$ with $B\cap[1,Y]\gg Y^{1-\delta}$ for all $Y \gg 1$, there are infinitely many primes of the form $a^2+b^2$ with $b\in B$. We prove a quasi-explicit formula…

If $S$ is an infinite sequence over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ and $\beta$ is a probability measure on $\Sigma$, then the {\it dimension} of $ S$ with respect to $\beta$, written $\dim^\beta(S)$, is a constructive version of Billingsley…

LLet $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb P^ 2$ of degree $d \geq 2$. We estimate the local directional dimensions of closed positive currents $S$ with respect to ergodic dilating measures $\nu$. We infer several applications. The…

We show that every $N \geq 2$ can be written as the sum of positive integers $a$ and $b$ where $\Omega(ab) \leq 40$. The result is obtained through the direct application of an explicit lower bound Selberg sieve along with some computation…

We show that for $0<\gamma, \gamma' <1$ and for measurable subsets of the unit square with Lebesgue measure $\gamma$ there exist bi-Lipschitz maps with bounded Lipschitz constant (uniformly over all such sets) which are identity on the…

This paper proves shrinking target results for IETs. Let {a_1\geq a_2 \geq...} be a sequence of positive real numbers with divergent sum. Then for almost every IET T, the limsup of B(T^ix,a_i) has full Lebesgue measure (where B(z, e) is the…

In this article, we show that a function $f\in M^{s,p}(X),$ $0<s\leq 1,$ $0<p<1,$ where $X$ is a doubling metric measure space, has generalized Lebesgue points outside a set of $\mathcal{H}^h$-Hausdorff measure zero for a suitable gauge…

In this paper we study the following quantitative isoperimetric inequality in the plane: $\lambda_0^2(\Omega) \leq C \delta(\Omega)$ where $\delta$ is the isoperimetric deficit and $\lambda_0$ is the barycentric asymmetry. Our aim is to…

For a given planar convex compact set $K$, consider a bisection $\{A,B\}$ of $K$ (i.e., $A\cup B=K$ and whose common boundary $A\cap B$ is an injective continuous curve connecting two boundary points of $K$) minimizing the corresponding…

We study how small is the set of critical values of the distance function from a compact (resp. closed) set in the plane or in a connected complete two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. We show that for a compact set, the set of critical…

In relation to the Erd\H os similarity problem (show that for any infinite set $A$ of real numbers there exists a set of positive Lebesgue measure which contains no affine copy of $A$) we give some new examples of infinite sets which are…

For $S_g(x,y)=x-g(y), x,y\in\mathbb{R}^n, g\in O(n),$ we investigate the Lebesgue measure and Hausdorff dimension of $S_g(A)$ given the dimension of $A$, both for general Borel subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ and for product sets.

The theory of uniform approximation of real numbers motivates the study of products of consecutive partial quotients in regular continued fractions. For any non-decreasing positive function $\varphi:\mathbb{N}\to [2,\infty)$, we determine…
