The study of the geometry of $n$-uniform measures in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ has been an important question in many fields of analysis since Preiss' seminal proof of the rectifiability of measures with positive and finite density. The…
For $\alpha$ in $(0,1]$, a subset $E$ of $\RR$ is called Furstenberg set of type $\alpha$ or $F_\alpha$-set if for each direction $e$ in the unit circle there is a line segment $\ell_e$ in the direction of $e$ such that the Hausdorff…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space, $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a continuous transformation with the specification property. we consider non-dense orbit set $E(z_0)$ and show that for any non-transitive point $z_0\in X$, this set $E(z_0)$ is…
We study $n$-dimensional matrices with $\{0,1\}$-entries ($n$-cubes) such that all their $2$-dimensional slices are incidence matrices of symmetric designs. A known construction of these objects obtained from difference sets is generalized…
A celebrated result of Beck shows that for any set of $N$ points on $\mathbb{S}^d$ there always exists a spherical cap $B \subset \mathbb{S}^d$ such that number of points in the cap deviates from the expected value $\sigma(B) \cdot N$ by at…
By juxtaposing ideas from fractal geometry and dynamical systems, Furstenberg proposed a series of conjectures in the late 1960's that explore the relationship between digit expansions with respect to multiplicatively independent bases. In…
Self-projective sets are natural fractal sets which describe the action of a semigroup of matrices on projective space. In recent years there has been growing interest in studying the dimension theory of self-projective sets, as well as…
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…
According to the Wik theorem, there exist massive Helson sets on the circle. In particular, they can be of Hausdorff dimension one. We extend Wik's result to the multidimensional case.
In this paper we study convex subcomplexes of spherical buildings. We pay special attention to fixed point sets of type-preserving isometries of spherical buildings. This sets are also convex subcomplexes of the natural polyhedral structure…
Given a point and an expanding map on the unit interval, we consider the set of points for which the forward orbit under this map is bounded away from the given point. For maps like multiplication by an integer modulo 1, such sets have full…
It is shown that if a $d$-dimensional cube is decomposed into n cubes, the side lengths of which belong to the interval $\left(1-\frac{1}{n^{1/d}+1}, 1\right], then $n$ is a perfect $d$-th power and all cubes are of the same size. This…
A finite relational structure A is called compact if for any infinite relational structure B of the same type, the existence of a homomorphism from B to A is equivalent to the existence of homomorphisms from all finite substructures of B to…
We continue our study, initiated in our earlier paper, of Riemann surfaces with constant curvature and isolated conic singularities. Using the machinery developed in that earlier paper of extended configuration families of simple divisors,…
We study {\it permeable} sets. These are sets \(\Theta \subset \mathbb{R}^d\) which have the property that each two points \(x,y\in \mathbb{R}^d\) can be connected by a short path \(\gamma\) which has small (or even empty, apart from the…
A variant of the Circle Packing Theorem states that the combinatorial class of any convex polyhedron contains elements midscribed to the unit sphere centered at the origin, and that these representatives are unique up to M\"obius…
Answering a recent question of Patchell and Spiro, we show that when a $d$-dimensional cube of side length $n$ is filled with letters, the word $\mathsf{CAT}$ can appear contiguously at most $(3^{d-1}/2)n^d$ times (allowing diagonals); we…
In this article, we provide a simple and systematic way to represent general (inhomogeneous) fractals that may look different at different scales and places. By using set-valued compression maps, we express these general fractals as…
A \emph{chain} in the unit $n$-cube is a set $C\subset [0,1]^n$ such that for every $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ and $\mathbf{y}=(y_1,\ldots,y_n)$ in $C$ we either have $x_i\le y_i$ for all $i\in [n]$, or $x_i\ge y_i$ for all $i\in [n]$.…
We give several partial positive answers to a question of Juhasz and Szentmiklossy regarding the minimum number of discrete sets required to cover a compact space. We study the relationship between the size of discrete sets, free sequences…
