A set $X \subseteq 2^\omega$ with positive measure contains a perfect subset. We study such perfect subsets from the viewpoint of computability and prove that these sets can have weak computational strength. Then we connect the existence of…
This survey synthesizes the principal descriptive set-theoretic perspectives on deterministic Cantor sets on the real line and charts directions for future study. After recounting their historical genesis and compiling an up-to-date…
We describe recent advances in the study of random analogues of combinatorial theorems.
We introduce a non real-valued measure on the definable sets contained in the finite part of a cartesian power of an o-minimal field $R$. The measure takes values in an ordered semiring, the Dedekind completion of a quotient of $R$. We show…
We construct "large" Cantor sets whose complements resemble the unit disk arbitrarily well from the point of view of the squeezing function, and we construct "large" Cantor sets whose complements do not resemble the unit disk from the point…
Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…
This paper proves the existence of nonmeasurable dense sets with additional properties using combinatorial techniques.
For any $0 < \alpha <1$, we construct Cantor sets on the parabola of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$ such that they are Salem sets and each associated measure $\nu$ satisfies the estimate $\|{\widehat{f d\nu}}\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)} \leq C_p…
We answer a question of Darji and Keleti by proving that there exists a compact set $C_0\subset\RR$ of measure zero such that for every perfect set $P\subset\RR$ there exists $x\in\RR$ such that $(C_0+x)\cap P$ is uncountable. Using this…
We show that for any pair of self-similar Cantor sets with sum of Hausdorff dimensions greater than 1, one can create an interval in the sumset by applying arbitrary small perturbations (without leaving the class of self-similar Cantor…
The uncountability of $\mathbb{R}$ is one of its most basic properties, known far outside of mathematics. Cantor's 1874 proof of the uncountability of $\mathbb{R}$ even appears in the very first paper on set theory, i.e. a historical…
The Doob convergence theorem implies that the set of divergence of any martingale has measure zero. We prove that, conversely, any $G\_{\delta\sigma}$ subset of the Cantor space with Lebesgue-measure zero can be represented as the set of…
Techniques of combinatorial set theory are applied to the following algebraic problem. Suppose G is an abelian group such that, for all countable subgroups C, the divisible part of the quotient G/C is countable. What can one conclude about…
We construct a class of homogeneous Cantor-Moran measures with all contraction ratios being reciprocal of integers, and prove that they are pointwise absolutely normal. Our approach relies on methods developed by Davenport, Erd{\H{o}}s, and…
In this article we give necessary and sufficient conditions that a complex number must satisfy to be a continuous eigenvalue of a minimal Cantor system. Similarly, for minimal Cantor systems of finite rank, we provide necessary and…
Let $X = [0,1]^{n}$, $n \geq1$. We show that the typical (in the sense of Baire category) compact subset of $X$ is not only a zero dimensional Cantor space but it satisfies the property of being strongly microscopic, which is stronger than…
We investigate some relations between number theory and spectral measures related to the harmonic analysis of a Cantor set. Specifically, we explore ways to determine when an odd natural number $m$ generates a complete or incomplete Fourier…
We study experimentally systems of orthogonal polynomials with respect to self-similar measures. When the support of the measure is a Cantor set, we observe some interesting properties of the polynomials, both on the Cantor set and in the…
Cameron introduced a bijection between the set of sum-free sets and the set of all zero-one sequences. In this paper, we study the sum-free sets of natural numbers corresponding to certain zero-one sequences which contain the Cantor-like…
We prove a version of $Z$-set unknotting theorem for uncountable products of real numbers.
