In this paper we study the Hausdorff dimension of a elliptic measure $\mu_{f}$ in space associated to a positive weak solution to a certain quasilinear elliptic PDE in an open subset and vanishing on a portion of the boundary of that open…
We examine exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n \le X} w(n) e^{2\pi i\alpha n^k}$, for $k=1,2$, where $\alpha$ satisfies a generalized Diophantine approximation and where $w$ are different arithmetic functions that might be multiplicative,…
We prove that for any real polynomial $f(x) \in\mathbb{R} [x]$ the set $$ \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R}: \liminf_{n\to \infty} n\log n ||\alpha f(n)|| >0\} $$ has positive Hausdorff dimension. Here $||\xi ||$ means the distance from $\xi $ to the…
We study dimensions of sumsets and iterated sumsets and provide natural conditions which guarantee that a set $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ satisfies $\overline{\dim}_\text{B} F+F > \overline{\dim}_\text{B} F$ or even $\dim_\text{H} n F \to 1$.…
We study several distinct but related Fourier analytic variants of the well-known Kakeya and Furstenberg set problems in the plane. For example, given $0<s,t<1$, we call a set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ an $(s,t)$-Kakeya set if there exists…
Let $\{x\_n\}\_{n\geq 0}$ be a sequence of $[0,1]^d$, $\{\lambda\_n\} \_{n\geq 0}$ a sequence of positive real numbers converging to 0, and $\delta>1$. Let $\mu$ be a positive Borel measure on $[0,1]^d$, $\rho\in (0,1]$ and $\alpha>0$.…
We establish that the set of pairs $(\alpha, \beta)$ of real numbers such that $$ \liminf_{q \to + \infty} q \cdot (\log q)^2 \cdot \Vert q \alpha \Vert \cdot \Vert q \beta \Vert > 0, $$ where $\Vert \cdot \Vert$ denotes the distance to the…
We study the L^q -dimensions of self-affine measures and the Kaenmaki measure on a class of self-affine sets similar to the class considered by Hueter and Lalley. We give simple, checkable conditions under which the Lq -dimensions are equal…
We fully resolve the Furstenberg set conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^2$, that a $(s, t)$-Furstenberg set has Hausdorff dimension $\ge \min(s+t, \frac{3s+t}{2}, s+1)$. As a result, we obtain an analogue of Elekes' bound for the discretized…
We show that if $B \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $E \subset A(n,k)$ is a nonempty collection of $k$-dimensional affine subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that every $P \in E$ intersects $B$ in a set of Hausdorff dimension at least $\alpha$ with…
In this article we calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the set \begin{equation*} \mathcal{F}(\Phi )=\left\{ x\in \lbrack 0,1):\begin{aligned}a_{n+1}(x)a_n(x) \geq \Phi(n) \ {\rm for \ infinitely \ many \ } n\in \mathbb N \ {\rm and } \\…
Arithmetic progressions of length $3$ may be found in compact subsets of the reals that satisfy certain Fourier -- as well as Hausdorff -- dimensional requirements. It has been shown that a very similar result holds in the integers under…
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a non-degenerate planar curve. We show that the curve is of Khintchine-type for convergence in the case of simultaneous approximation with two independent approximation functions; that is if a certain sum converges then…
In this paper we derive estimates for linear potentials that hold away from thin subsets. And, inspired by the celebrated work of Huber, we verify that, for a subset that is thin at a point, there is always a geodesic that reaches to the…
We establish uniformization results for metric spaces that are homeomorphic to the euclidean plane or sphere and have locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. Applying the geometric definition of quasiconformality, we give a necessary and…
Diophantine approximation is traditionally the study of how well real numbers are approximated by rationals. We propose a model for studying Diophantine approximation in an arbitrary totally bounded metric space where the rationals are…
Let $\varepsilon>0$. We construct an explicit, full-measure set of $\alpha \in[0,1]$ such that if $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}$ then, for almost all $\beta \in[0,1]$, if $\delta \in \mathbb{R}$ then there are infinitely many integers $n\geq 1$…
We prove that almost all random subsets of a finite vector space are weak Salem sets (small Fourier coefficient), which extends a result of Hayes to a different probability model.
We prove that if a quasiconvex subset $X$ of a metric space $Y$ has finite Nagata dimension and is Lipschitz $k$-connected or admits Euclidean isoperimetric inequalities up to dimension $k$ for some $k$ then $X$ is isoperimetrically…
We show that Mahler's classification of real numbers $\zeta$ with respect to the growth of the sequence $(w_{n}(\zeta))_{n\geq 1}$ is equivalently induced by certain natural assumptions on the decay of the sequence…
