We prove a Marstrand type slicing theorem for the subsets of the integer square lattice. This problem is the dual of the corresponding projection theorem, which was considered by Glasscock, and Lima and Moreira, with the mass and counting…
The counting and (upper) mass dimensions are notions of dimension for subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d$. We develop their basic properties and give a characterization of the counting dimension via coverings. In addition, we prove Marstrand-type…
We propose a counting dimension for subsets of Z and prove that, under certain conditions on two such subsets E and F, for Lebesgue almost every real \lambda\ the counting dimension of E+[\lambda F] is at least the minimum between 1 and the…
In a paper from 1954, Marstrand proved that if $K\subset \mathbb{R}^2$ with Hausdorff dimension greater than 1, then its one-dimensional projection has positive Lebesgue measure for almost-all directions. In this article, we show that if…
Let $1 \leq m < s \leq n$ and let $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ be a Borel set of with $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $\mathcal{H}^s(A) > 0$. The classical Marstrand slicing theorem states that, for almost every $m$-dimensional subspace $V…
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…
We prove that for $1\le k<d$, if $E$ is a Borel subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ of Hausdorff dimension strictly larger than $k$, the set of $(k+1)$-volumes determined by $k+2$ points in $E$ has positive one-dimensional Lebesgue measure. In the…
In a paper from 1954 Marstrand proved that if K is a Borel subset of the plane with Hausdorff dimension greater than 1, then its one-dimensional projection has positive Lebesgue measure for almost-all directions. In this article, we give a…
In 1954 Marstrand proved that if K is a subset of R^2 with Hausdorff dimension greater than 1, then its one-dimensional projection has positive Lebesgue measure for almost-all directions. In this article, we give a combinatorial proof of…
We consider the problem of slicing a compact metric space \Omega with sets of the form \pi_{\lambda}^{-1}\{t\}, where the mappings \pi_{\lambda} \colon \Omega \to \R, \lambda \in \R, are \emph{generalized projections}, introduced by Yuval…
We consider Marstrand type projection theorems for closest-point projections in the normed space $\mathbb{R}^2$. We prove that if a norm on $\mathbb{R}^2$ is regular enough, then the analogues of the well-known statements from the Euclidean…
Assuming $V=L$, we construct a plane set $E$ of Hausdorff dimension $1$ whose every orthogonal projection onto straight lines through the origin has Hausdorff dimension $0$. This is a counterexample to J. M. Marstrand's seminal projection…
We extend a theorem of the second author on the $L^q$-dimensions of dynamically driven self-similar measures from the real line to arbitrary dimension. Our approach provides a novel, simpler proof even in the one-dimensional case. As…
We investigate the dimension of intersections of the Sierpi\'nski gasket with lines. Our first main result describes a countable, dense set of angles that are exceptional for Marstrand's theorem. We then provide a multifractal analysis for…
We prove the following variant of Marstrand's theorem about projections of cartesian products of sets: Consider the space $\Lambda_m=\set{(t,O), t\in\R, O\in SO(m)}$ with the natural measure and set…
Given an arbitrary set of high dimensional points in $\ell_1$, there are known negative results that preclude the possibility of always mapping them to a low dimensional $\ell_1$ space while preserving distances with small multiplicative…
Let $T$ be a $d\times d$ matrix with real coefficients. Then $T$ determines a self-map of the $d$-dimensional torus ${\Bbb T}^d={\mathbb{R}}^d/{\Bbb Z}^d$. Let $ \{E_n \}_{n \in \mathbb{N}} $ be a sequence of subsets of ${\Bbb T}^d$ and let…
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…
The connected part of a metric space $E$ is defined to be the union of non-trivial connected components of $E$. We proved that for a class of self-affine sets called slicing self-affine sponges, the connected part of $E$ either coincides…
We show that in many parametrized families of self-similar measures, their projections, and their convolutions, the set of parameters for which the measure fails to be absolutely continuous is very small - of co-dimension at least one in…
