We determine the submaximal dimensions of the spaces of almost Einstein scales and normal conformal Killing fields for connected conformal manifolds. The results depend on the signature and dimension $n$ of the conformally nonflat conformal…

We prove that any Besicovitch set in $\mathbb{R}^3$ must have Hausdorff dimension at least $5/2+\epsilon_0$ for some small constant $\epsilon_0>0$. This follows from a more general result about the volume of unions of tubes that satisfy the…

We provide quantitative estimates for the supremum of the Hausdorff dimension of sets in the real line which avoid $\varepsilon$-approximations of arithmetic progressions. Some of these estimates are in terms of Szemer\'{e}di bounds. In…

We prove that a subset of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ that contains a hyperplane in any direction has size at least $q^{n}-O(q^2)$.

Given a Cantor-type subset $\Omega$ of a smooth curve in $\mathbb R^{d+1}$, we construct examples of sets that contain unit line segments with directions from $\Omega$ and exhibit analytical features similar to those of classical Kakeya…

For Cantor circle Julia sets of hyperbolic rational maps, we prove that they are quasisymmetrically equivalent to standard Cantor circles (i.e., connected components are round circles). This gives a quasisymmetric uniformization of all…

This paper considers the problem of establishing $L^p$-improving inequalities for Radon-like operators in intermediate dimensions (i.e., for averages overs submanifolds which are neither curves nor hypersurfaces). Due to limitations in…

Let $L$ be a set of lines of an affine space over a field and let $S$ be a set of points with the property that every line of $L$ is incident with at least $N$ points of $S$. Let $D$ be the set of directions of the lines of $L$ considered…

The arithmetic Kakeya conjecture, formulated by Katz and Tao in 2002, is a statement about addition of finite sets. It is known to imply a form of the Kakeya conjecture, namely that the upper Minkowski dimension of a Besicovitch set in…

For a finite vector space $V$ and a non-negative integer $r\le\dim V$ we estimate the smallest possible size of a subset of $V$, containing a translate of every $r$-dimensional subspace. In particular, we show that if $K\subset V$ is the…

A Kakeya set in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ is a set containing a line in every direction. We show that every Kakeya set in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ has density at least $1/2^{n-1}$, matching the construction by Dvir, Kopparty, Saraf and Sudan.

The dimension of Kakeya sets can be bounded using sum-difference exponents $\SD(R;s)$ for various sets of rational slopes $R$ and output slope $s$; the arithmetic Kakeya conjecture, which implies the Kakeya conjecture in all dimensions,…

Given an analytic function $f=u+iv$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, Zygmund's theorem gives the minimal growth restriction on $u$ which ensures that $v$ is in the Hardy space $h^1$. This need not be true if $f$ is a complex-valued harmonic…

A Besicovitch set is a subset of $\R^d$ that contains a unit line segment in every direction and the famous Kakeya conjecture states that Besicovitch sets should have full dimension. We provide a number of results in support of this…

We establish the following uniformization result for metric spaces $X$ of finite Hausdorff 2-measure. If $X$ is homeomorphic to a smooth 2-manifold $M$ with non-empty boundary, then we show that $X$ admits a quasiconformal almost…

Through the use of a nonstandard version of Frostman's lemma, the notion of Hausdorff dimension is formulated in nonstandard euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. This allows for a nonstandard proof of the Kakeya conjecture in two…

If the non-commutative L p space of SLn(Z) has the completely bounded approximation property for some non-trivial value of p, then some form of the Kakeya conjecture holds in dimension d, for all d $\le$ n+1 2 . The proof relies on a…

We construct a quasiconformal mapping of $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, $n \geq 2$, that simultaneously distorts the Hausdorff dimension of a nearly maximal collection of parallel lines by a given amount. This answers a question of…

The connections between quasi-Assouad dimension and tangents are studied. We apply these results to the calculation of the quasi-Assouad dimension for a class of planar self-affine sets. We also show that sets with decreasing gaps have…

In this article, we examine stretching and rotation of planar quasiconformal mappings on a line. We show that for almost every point on the line, the set of complex stretching exponents (describing stretching and rotation jointly) is…
