Using methods from ergodic theory along with properties of the Furstenberg measure we obtain conditions under which certain classes of plane self-affine sets have Hausdorff or box-counting dimensions equal to their affinity dimension. We…
We prove the existence of similar and multi-similar point configurations (or simplexes) in sets of fractional Hausdorff measure in Euclidean space. These results can be viewed as variants, for thin sets, of theorems for sets of positive…
Let $I=[0,1)$, $-1<\lambda<1$ and $f\colon I\to I$ be a piecewise $\lambda$-affine map of the interval $I$, i.e., there exist a partition $0=a_0<a_1<\cdots< a_{k-1}<a_k=1$ of the interval $I$ into $k\geq2$ subintervals and $b_1,\ldots,…
We prove that for any $1 \le k<n$ and $s\le 1$, the union of any nonempty $s$-Hausdorff dimensional family of $k$-dimensional affine subspaces of ${\mathbb R}^n$ has Hausdorff dimension $k+s$. More generally, we show that for any $0 <…
We prove that a purely unrectifiable self-similar set of finite 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure in the plane, satisfying the Open Set Condition, has radial projection of zero length from every point.
We show in detail that every compact countable subset of a metric space is homeomorphic to a countable ordinal number, which extends a result given by Mazurkiewicz and Sierpinski for finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces. In order to achieve…
We prove that for a compact subgroup $H$ of an almost connected locally compact Hausdorff group $G$, the following properties are mutually equivalent: (1) $H$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$, (2) $G/H$ is contractible, (3) $G/H$ is…
We show that every holomorphic map $f\in\mathcal{H}(\Omega\setminus K)$ ($K\subset\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n$, with $K$ compact, $\Omega$ open, and $n\ge2$), has a unique "\emph{Hartogs companion}" $\tilde f\in\mathcal{H}(\Omega)$ matching…
A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…
Compact sets in constructive mathematics capture our intuition of what computable subsets of the plane (or any other complete metric space) ought to be. A good representation of compact sets provides an efficient means of creating and…
In this paper we give several conditions for a space to be minimal for conformal dimension. We show that there are sets of zero length and conformal dimension 1 thus answering a question of Bishop and Tyson. Another sufficient condition for…
We show that any non-zero Banach space with a separable dual contains a totally disconnected, closed and bounded subset S of Hausdorff dimension 1 such that every Lipschitz function on the space is Fr\'echet differentiable somewhere in S.
We investigate how the Hausdorff dimension and measure of a self-similar set $K\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{d}$ behave under linear images. This depends on the nature of the group $\mathcal{T}$ generated by the orthogonal parts of the defining maps…
Let $\mu$ be a planar self-similar measure with similarity dimension exceeding $1$, satisfying a mild separation condition, and such that the fixed points of the associated similitudes do not share a common line. Then, we prove that the…
The main result of this paper is the proof of the simultaneous consistency, modulo a weakly compact cardinal, of the equality $2^{< \mathfrak{c}} = \mathfrak{c}$ with the following property (*) of partitions of pairs of $\mathfrak{c}$:…
We investigate variants of Marstrand's projection theorem that hold for sets of directions and classes of sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We say that a set of directions $D \subseteq\mathcal{S}^1$ is $\textit{universal}$ for a class of sets if, for…
Let $\alpha\in(0,1)$, $K\geq 1$, and $d=2\frac{1+\alpha K}{1+K}$. Given a compact set $E\subset\C$, it is known that if $\H^d(E)=0$ then $E$ is removable for $\alpha$-H\"older continuous $K$-quasiregular mappings in the plane. The sharpness…
The classical Hausdorff dimension of finite or countable sets is zero. We define an analog for finite sets, called finite Hausdorff dimension which is non-trivial. It turns out that a finite bound for the finite Hausdorff dimension…
We prove that compact Hausdorff spaces with a $\mathbb{P}$-diagonal are metrizable.
We prove that if $J$ is the limit set of an irreducible conformal iterated function system (with either finite or countably infinite alphabet), then the badly approximable vectors form a set of full Hausdorff dimension in $J$. The same is…
