We study the density function of measurable subsets of the Cantor space. Among other things, we identify a universal set $\mathcal{U}$ for $\Sigma^{1}_{1}$ subsets of $( 0 ; 1 )$ in terms of the density function; specifically $\mathcal{U}$…

We construct Salem sets in $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ of any dimension (including $1$) which do not contain any arithmetic progressions of length $3$. Moreover, the sets can be taken to be Ahlfors regular if the dimension is less than $1$, and…

Recently, Charpentier showed that there exist holomorphic functions $f$ in the unit disk such that, for any proper compact subset $K$ of the unit circle, any continuous function $\phi$ on $K$ and any compact subset $L$ of the unit disk,…

Let $K$ be a compact set in the complex plane $\C$, such that its complement in the Riemann sphere, $(\C\cup\{\infty\})\sm K$, is connected. Also, let $U\subseteq\C$ be an open set which contains $K$. Then there exists a simply connected…

We present here quantitative versions in 1 dimension of Faltings'theorem according to which the set of the K-rational points (where K is a given number field) of an abelian variety A definied over K, which are close (with respect to a…

In this paper, we study the cardinality of the distance set $\Delta(A, B)$ determined by two subsets $A$ and $B$ of the $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Assuming that $A$ or $B$ lies in a $k$-coordinate plane…

We provide a sufficient Dini-type condition for a subset of a complete, quasiconvex metric space to be covered by a H\"older curve. This implies in particular that if the upper box-counting dimension of a set in a quasiconvex metric space…

We prove some results on when functions on compact sets $K \subset \mathbb C$ can be approximated by polynomials avoiding values in given sets. We also prove some higher dimensional analogues. In particular we prove that a continuous…

A compact packing is a set of non-overlapping discs where all the holes between discs are curvilinear triangles. There is only one compact packing by discs of size $1$. There are exactly $9$ values of $r$ which allow a compact packing by…

We provide estimates for the dimensions of sets in $\mathbb{R}$ which uniformly avoid finite arithmetic progressions. More precisely, we say $F$ uniformly avoids arithmetic progressions of length $k \geq 3$ if there is an $\epsilon>0$ such…

We show that if a closed discrete subset $A \subseteq \mathbf{R}^d$ is denser than a certain critical threshold, then $A$ is a Fourier uniqueness set, while if $A$ is sparser, then uniqueness fails and one can prescribe arbitrary values for…

We show that there exist $(d-1)$ - Ahlfors regular compact sets $E \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}, d\geq 2$ such that for any $t< d-1$, we have \[ \sup_T \frac{\mathcal{H}^{d-1}(E\cap T)}{w(T)^t}<\infty \] where the supremum is over all tubes $T$…

Our main result marks progress on an old conjecture of Vitushkin. We show that a compact set in the plane with plenty of big projections (PBP) has positive analytic capacity, along with a quantitative lower bound. A higher dimensional…

We say that a set of points $S\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is an $\varepsilon$-nearly $k$-distance set if there exist $1\le t_1\le \ldots\le t_k,$ such that the distance between any two distinct points in $S$ falls into…

For every integer $k \geq 2$ and every $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, we define the \emph{$k$-directions sets} of $A$ as $D^k(A) := \{{\bf a} / \|{\bf a}\| : {\bf a} \in A^k\}$ and $D^{\underline{k}}(A) := \{{\bf a} / \|{\bf a}\| : {\bf a} \in…

We apply quantitative (or controlled) $K$-theory to prove that a certain $L^p$ assembly map is an isomorphism for $p\in[1,\infty)$ when an action of a countable discrete group $\Gamma$ on a compact Hausdorff space $X$ has finite dynamical…

A subset of a metric space is a k-distance set if there are exactly k non-zero distances occuring between points. We conjecture that a k-distance set in a d-dimensional Banach space (or Minkowski space), contains at most (k+1)^d points,…

We show that if $f:X\to Y$ is a quasisymmetric mapping between Ahlfors regular spaces, then $\dim_H f(E)\leq\dim_H E$ for "almost every" bounded Ahlfors regular set $E\subseteq X$. If additionally, $X$ and $Y$ are Loewner spaces then…

Motivated by quite recent research involving the relationship between the dimension of a poset and graph-theoretic properties of its cover graph, we show that for every $d\geq 1$, if $P$ is a poset and the dimension of a subposet $B$ of $P$…

We give an explicit construction of two-dimensional point sets whose $L_p$ discrepancy is of best possible order for all $1\le p\le \infty$. It is provided by folding Hammersley point sets in base $b$ by means of the $b$-adic baker's…
