We introduce a class of Falconer distance problems, which we call of restricted type, lying between the classical version and its pinned variant. Prototypical restricted distance sets are the diagonal distance sets, $k$-point configuration…

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 study the following two problems: (1) Given $n\ge 2$ and $\al$, how large Hausdorff dimension can a compact set $A\su\Rn$ have if $A$ does not contain three points that form an angle $\al$? (2) Given $\al$ and $\de$, how large Hausdorff…

The classical Khintchine--Jarn\'ik Theorem provides elegant criteria for determining the Lebesgue measure and Hausdorff measure of sets of points approximated by rational points, which has inspired much modern research in metric Diophantine…

Let $M$ be a compact $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold without a boundary. Given $E \subset M$, let $\Delta_{\rho}(E)=\{\rho(x,y): x,y \in E \}$, where $\rho$ is the Riemannian metric on $M$. Let $\Delta_{\rho}^x$ denote the pinned…

Let $\{s_n\}$ and $\{t_n\}$ be two sequences of positive real numbers. Under some mild conditions on $\{s_n\}$ and $\{t_n\}$, we give the precise formula of the Hausdorff dimension of the set \[ \mathbb{E}(\{s_n\},\{t_n\}):=\Big\{x\in(0,1):…

We consider the Hausdorff dimension of the divergence set on which the pointwise convergence $\lim_{t\rightarrow 0} e^{it\sqrt{-\Delta}} f(x) = f(x)$ fails when $f \in H^s(\mathbb R^d)$. We especially prove the conjecture raised by…

We prove that for any $E\subset{\Bbb R}^2$, $\dim_{\mathcal{H}}(E)>1$, there exists $x\in E$ such that the Hausdorff dimension of the pinned distance set $$\Delta_x(E)=\{|x-y|: y \in E\}$$ is no less than…

In this paper, we present a second partial solution for the problem of cardinality calculation of the set of fractals for its subcategory of the random virtual ones. Consistent with the deterministic case, we show that for the given…

Fix positive integers $a$ and $b$ such that $a> b\geq 2$ and a positive real $\delta>0$. Let $S$ be a planar set of diameter $\delta$ having the following property: for every $a$ points in $S$, at least $b$ of them have pairwise distances…

We study a variant of the Falconer distance problem for dot products. In particular, for fractal subsets $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $a,x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study sets of the form \[ \Pi_x^a(A) := \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R} : (a-x)\cdot y=…

We establish the dimension version of Falconer's distance set conjecture for sets of equal Hausdorff and packing dimension (in particular, for Ahlfors-regular sets) in all ambient dimensions. In dimensions $d=2$ or $3$, we obtain the first…

We show that for Gibbs measures on self-conformal sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d\ge2)$ satisfying certain minimal assumptions, without requiring any separation condition, the Hausdorff dimension of orthogonal projections to $k$-dimensional…

The main result of this paper is the following. Given countably many multivariate polynomials with rational coefficients and maximum degree $d$, we construct a compact set $E\subset \R^n$ of Hausdorff dimension $n/d$ which does not contain…

Given $E \subset {\Bbb R}^d$, define the \emph{volume set} of $E$, ${\mathcal V}(E)= \{det(x^1, x^2, ... x^d): x^j \in E\}$. In $\R^3$, we prove that ${\mathcal V}(E)$ has positive Lebesgue measure if either the Hausdorff dimension of…

For a fixed $\theta^2=1/m$, $m \in \mathbb{N}_+$, let $x \in [0, \theta)$ and $[a_1(x) \theta, a_2(x) \theta, \ldots]$ be the $\theta$-expansion of $x$. Our first goal is to extend for $\theta$-expansions the results of Jarnik \cite{J-1928}…

We study the Erd\H os-Falconer distance problem for a set $A\subset \mathbb{F}^2$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a field of positive characteristic $p$. If $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{F}_p$ and the cardinality $|A|$ exceeds $p^{5/4}$, we prove that $A$…

It has been recently understood that the harmonic measure on the boundary $E = \partial \Omega$ of a domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is absolutely continuous with respect to the Hausdorff measure $\mathcal{H}^{n - 1}$ on $E$ if and only…

In this paper we investigate the Erd\"os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We prove a good upper bound for spherical means that have been…

In this article we introduce the notion of badly approximable matrices of higher order using higher sucessive minima in $\mathbb R^d$. We prove that for order less than $d$, they have Lebesgue measure zero and the gaps between them still…
