Let us assume that we are given two metric spaces, where the Hausdorff dimension of the first space is strictly smaller than the one of the second space. Suppose further that the first space has sigma-finite measure with respect to the…
Odifreddi asked whether every non-irreducible many-one degree must contain an infinite antichain of one-one degrees. Positive answers are known for computably enumerable many-one degrees (Degtev) and, more recently, for many-one degrees…
In 1969, Osofsky proved that a chained ring (i.e., local arithmetical ring) with zero divisors has infinite weak global dimension; that is, the weak global dimension of an arithmetical ring is 0, 1, or infinite. In 2007, Bazzoni and Glaz…
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…
We show that whenever a separable subset $S$ of a complete metric space $X$ admits a $d$-dimensional weak tangent field, the set $S$ is close to being $d$-dimensional in the following sense. Whenever $\mu$ is a Borel finite measure on $X$…
We study isoperimetric inequalities on "slabs", namely weighted Riemannian manifolds obtained as the product of the uniform measure on a finite length interval with a codimension-one base. As our two main applications, we consider the case…
The purpose of this note is to record a consequence, for general metric spaces, of a recent result of David Bate. We prove the following fact: Let $X$ be a compact metric space of topological dimension $n$. Suppose that the $n$-dimensional…
The type II_1 unprojection is, by definition, the generic complete intersection type II unprojection, in the sense of [Papadakis, Type II unprojection, J. Algebraic Geometry, 15 (2006) 399--414] Section 3.1, for the parameter value k = 1,…
This paper introduces a new variant of hypercubes, which we call Z-cubes. The n-dimensional Z-cube $H_n$ is obtained from two copies of the (n-1)-dimensional Z-cube $H_{n-1}$ by adding a special perfect matching between the vertices of…
For a map $T \colon [0,1] \to [0,1]$ with an invariant measure $\mu$, we study, for a $\mu$-typical $x$, the set of points $y$ such that the inequality $|T^n x - y| < r_n$ is satisfied for infinitely many $n$. We give a formula for the…
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=…
One of the most classical results in extremal set theory is Sperner's theorem, which says that the largest antichain in the Boolean lattice $2^{[n]}$ has size $\Theta\big(\frac{2^n}{\sqrt{n}}\big)$. Motivated by an old problem of Erd\H{o}s…
A homemorphism between domains in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$ is quasiconformal, with its intricate analytic and geometric consequences, if the (pointwise) linear dilatation -- a purely metric quantity -- is uniformly bounded. Gehring proved…
The Kakeya conjecture is generally formulated as one the following statements: every compact/Borel/arbitrary subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$ that contains a (unit) line segment in every direction has Hausdorff dimension $n$; or, sometimes, that…
Wasserstein projections in the convex order were first considered in the framework of weak optimal transport, and found application in various problems such as concentration inequalities and martingale optimal transport. In dimension one,…
A carpet is a metric space which is homeomorphic to the standard Sierpi\'nski carpet in $\mathbb{R}^2$, or equivalently, in $S^2$. A carpet is called thin if its Hausdorff dimension is $<2$. A metric space is called Q-Loewner if its…
We prove that the set of $n$-point configurations for which the solution of the planar Steiner problem is not unique has the Hausdorff dimension at most $2n-1$ (as a subset of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$). Moreover, we show that the Hausdorff…
The convex and metric structures underlying probabilistic physical theories are generally described in terms of base normed vector spaces. According to a recent proposal, the purely geometrical features of these spaces are appropriately…
We prove that if pure derivatives with respect to all coordinates of a function on $\mathbb{R}^n$ are signed measures, then their lower Hausdorff dimension is at least $n-1$. The derivatives with respect to different coordinates may be of…
We establish a structure theorem for minimizing sequences for the isoperimetric problem on noncompact $\mathsf{RCD}(K,N)$ spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathcal{H}^N)$. Under the sole (necessary) assumption that the measure of unit balls is…
