We use Kolmogorov complexity methods to give a lower bound on the effective Hausdorff dimension of the point (x, ax+b), given real numbers a, b, and x. We apply our main theorem to a problem in fractal geometry, giving an improved lower…

We study an analogue of Marstrand's circle packing problem for curves in higher dimensions. We consider collections of curves which are generated by translation and dilation of a curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb R^d$, i.e., $ x + t \gamma$,…

Let $\gamma: I \to S^2$ be a $C^2$ curve with $\det(\gamma, \gamma', \gamma'')$ nonvanishing, and for each $\theta \in I$ let $\rho_{\theta}$ be orthogonal projection onto the span of $\gamma(\theta)$. It is shown that if $A \subseteq…

We show that, almost surely, the Hausdorff dimension $s_0$ of a random covering set is preserved under all orthogonal projections to linear subspaces with dimension $k>s_0$. The result holds for random covering sets with a generating…

This paper is concerned with restricted families of projections in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ be a Borel set with Hausdorff dimension $\dim K = s > 1$. If $\mathcal{G}$ is a smooth and sufficiently well-curved…

Seventy years ago, John Marstrand published a paper which, among other things, relates the Hausdorff dimension of a plane set to the dimensions of its orthogonal projections onto lines. For some time this paper attracted little attention,…

We study dimensional properties of visible parts of fractal percolation in the plane. Provided that the dimension of the fractal percolation is at least 1, we show that, conditioned on non-extinction, almost surely all visible parts from…

Marstrand's celebrated projection theorem gives the Hausdorff dimension of the orthogonal projection of a Borel set in Euclidean space for almost all orthogonal projections. It is straightforward to see that sets for which the Fourier and…

We establish several optimal estimates for exceptional parameters in the projection of fractal measures: (1) For a parametric family of self-similar measures satisfying a transversality condition, the set of parameters leading to a…

We present strong versions of Marstrand's projection theorems and other related theorems. For example, if E is a plane set of positive and finite s-dimensional Hausdorff measure, there is a set X of directions of Lebesgue measure 0, such…

Let $0 \leq s \leq 1$ and $0 \leq t \leq 2$. An $(s,t)$-Furstenberg set is a set $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ with the following property: there exists a line set $\mathcal{L}$ of Hausdorff dimension $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} \mathcal{L} \geq t$…

Given a set in the plane, the average length of its projections over all directions is called Favard length. This quantity measures the size of a set, and is closely related to metric and geometric properties of the set such as…
