We provide sharp lower and upper bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of the intersection of a typical random covering set with a fixed analytic set both in Ahlfors regular metric spaces and in the $d$-dimensional torus. In metric spaces, we…
We prove a natural inequality which implies the known lower bounds for the $(n-1)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of nodal sets for smooth compact manifolds.
We introduce a new family of fractal dimensions by restricting the set of diameters in the coverings in the usual definition of the Hausdorff dimension. Among others, we prove that this family contains continuum many distinct dimensions,…
Let $\{x\_n\}\_{n\geq 0}$ be a sequence of $[0,1]^d$, $\{\lambda\_n\} \_{n\geq 0}$ a sequence of positive real numbers converging to 0, and $\delta>1$. Let $\mu$ be a positive Borel measure on $[0,1]^d$, $\rho\in (0,1]$ and $\alpha>0$.…
We use the arithmetic-combinatorial method of Katz and Tao to give mixed-norm estimates for the x-ray transform on R^d when d \geq 4. As an application, we obtain an improved estimate for the Hausdorff dimension of (d,k) sets, which are…
In this paper we introduce a notion of dimension and codimension for every element of a distributive bounded lattice $L$. These notions prove to have a good behavior when $L$ is a co-Heyting algebra. In this case the codimension gives rise…
Let A be a bounded subset of IR^d. We give an upper bound on the volume of the symmetric difference of A and f(A) where f is a translation, a rotation, or the composition of both, a rigid motion. The volume is measured by the d-dimensional…
A subset of the Hamming cube over $n$-letter alphabet is said to be $d$-maximal if its diameter is $d$, and adding any point increases the diameter. Our main result shows that each $d$-maximal set is either of size at most $(n+o(n))^d$ or…
A compact set $E\subset {\Bbb R}^d$ is said to be arithmetically thick if there exists a positive integer $n$ so that the $n$-fold arithmetic sum of $E$ has non-empty interior. We prove the arithmetic thickness of $E$, if $E$ is uniformly…
We prove a quantitative distortion theorem for iterated function systems that generate sets of continued fractions. As a consequence, we obtain upper and lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of any set of real or complex continued…
The celebrated theorem of Ahlswede and Khachatrian determines the maximum size of a family of $k$-element subsets of an $n$-element set where the intersection of any two subsets has at least $r$ elements. This survey first gives a…
This paper aims to propose a direct approach to solve the Plateau's problem in codimension higher than one. The problem is formulated as the minimization of the Hausdorff measure among a family of $d$-rectifiable closed subsets of $\mathbb…
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 $X$…
Let us say that an element of a given family $\A$ of subsets of $\R^d$ can be reconstructed using $n$ test sets if there exist $T_1,...,T_n \subset \R^d$ such that whenever $A,B\in \A$ and the Lebesgue measures of $A \cap T_i$ and $B \cap…
We consider the question which compact metric spaces can be obtained as a Lipschitz image of the middle third Cantor set, or more generally, as a Lipschitz image of a subset of a given compact metric space. In the general case we prove that…
We construct a compact metric space that has any other compact metric space as a tangent, with respect to the Gromov-Hausdorff distance, at all points. Furthermore, we give examples of compact sets in the Euclidean unit cube, that have…
Consider all the level sets of a real function. We can group these level sets according to their Hausdorff dimensions. We show that the Hausdorff dimension of the collection of all level sets of a given Hausdorff dimension can be…
We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set $\mathbf{x}\in [0,1)^d$, such that $$ \left|\sum_{n=1}^N \exp\left(2 \pi i\left(x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right) \right|\ge c N^{1/2} $$ holds for infinitely many natural numbers $N$, is at…
Let us consider a sphere $S^{n-1}$ of radius $r$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, where we have fixed poles $N$ and $S$. Suppose that $K$ is a set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ containing a translated copy of each meridian (that is an $S^{n-2}$-sphere) of $S^{n-1}$.…
We prove essentially sharp bounds for Ramsey numbers of ordered hypergraph matchings, inroduced recently by Dudek, Grytczuk, and Ruci\'{n}ski. Namely, for any $r \ge 2$ and $n \ge 2$, we show that any collection $\mathcal H$ of $n$ pairwise…
