If $X$ is a set with finite Assouad dimension, it is known that the Assouad dimension of $X-X$ does not necessarily obey any non-trivial bound in terms of the Assouad dimension of $X$. In this paper, we consider self-similar sets on the…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of asymptotic self-similar sets on general doubling metric spaces by extending the notion of self-similar sets, and determine their Hausdorff dimensions, which gives an extension of Balogh and Rohner…

We introduce a new concept of dimension for metric spaces, the so-called topological Hausdorff dimension. It is defined by a very natural combination of the definitions of the topological dimension and the Hausdorff dimension. The value of…

In this paper, we obtain new bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of planar elliptic measure via the application of quasiconformal mappings, with these bounds depending solely on the ellipticity constant of the matrix. In fact, in our case…

We produce an upper bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the graph of a Weierstrass-type function. Whilst strictly weaker than existing results, it has the advantage of being directly computable from the theory of hyperbolic iterated…

The set of badly approximable numbers, Bad, is known to be winning for Schmidt's game and hence has full Hausdorff dimension. It is also known that the set of inhomogeneously badly approximable numbers has full dimension. We prove that the…

A $(d,k)$-set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ containing a $k$-dimensional unit ball of all possible orientations. Using an approach of D.~Oberlin we prove various Fourier dimension estimates for compact $(d,k)$-sets. Our main interest is in…

We provide upper bounds for the size of subsets of finite fields lacking the polynomial progression $$ x, x+y, ..., x+(m-1)y, x+y^m, ..., x+y^{m+k-1}.$$ These are the first known upper bounds in the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for the…

Erd\H{o}s proved that any real number can be written as a sum, and a product, of two Liouville numbers. Motivated by these results, we study sumsets of classes of real numbers with prescribed (or bounded) irrationality exponents. We show…

We study the relation between critical exponents and Hausdorff dimensions of limit sets for projective Anosov representations. We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the symmetric limit set in $\mathbf{P}(\mathbb{R}^{n}) \times…

In this paper we prove the Hausdorff dimension of the set of (nondegenerate) singular two-dimensional vectors with uniform exponent $\mu$ $\in$ (1/2, 1) is 2(1 -- $\mu$) when $\mu$ $\ge$ $\sqrt$ 2/2, whereas for $\mu$ \textless{} $\sqrt$…

We construct a function that lies in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$ for every $p \in (1,\infty]$ and whose Fourier transform has no Lebesgue points in a Cantor set of full Hausdorff dimension. We apply Kova\v{c}'s maximal restriction principle to show…

In this paper, we study inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation over the completion $K_v$ of a global function field $K$ (over a finite field) for a discrete valuation $v$, with affine algebra $R_v$. We obtain an effective upper bound for…

This paper has been withdrawn Any real number $x$ in the unit interval can be expressed as a continued fraction $x=[n_1,...,n_{_N},...]$. Subsets of zero measure are obtained by imposing simple conditions on the $n_{_N}$. By imposing…

We consider the Assouad dimension analogues of two important problems in geometric measure theory. These problems are tied together by the common theme of `passing to weak tangents'. First, we solve an analogue of Falconer's distance set…

A Kakeya set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a compact set that contains a unit line segment $I_e$ in each direction $e \in S^{n-1}$. The Kakeya conjecture states that any Kakeya set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ has Hausdorff dimension $n$. We consider a…

Singular vectors are those for which the quality of rational approximations provided by Dirichlet's Theorem can be improved by arbitrarily small multiplicative constants. We provide an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of singular…

We prove that, for every norm on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and every $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the Hausdorff dimension of the distance set of $E$ with respect to that norm is at least $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} E - (d-1)$. An explicit construction follows,…

We study the Hausdorff and box-counting dimensions of cookie-cutter-like sets formed by sequential dynamics of a finite number of expanding maps. Under some natural conditions, these dimensions turn out to be the minimum and maximum of the…

We augment the method of Wooley (2015) by some new ideas and in a series of results, improve his metric bounds on the Weyl sums and the discrepancy of fractional parts of real polynomials with partially prescribed coefficients. We also…
