We study the geometry of dynamically defined Cantor sets in arbitrary dimensions, introducing a criterion for $\mathcal{C}^{1+\alpha}$ stable intersections of such Cantor sets, under a mild bunching condition. This condition is naturally…

Suppose that $K$ and $ K'$ are two affine Cantor sets. It is shown that the sum set $K+K'$ has equal box and Hausdorff dimensions and in this number named $s$, $H^s(K+K')<\infty$. Moreover, for almost every pair $(K,K')$ satisfying…

It is well known that a pair of compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d \in \mathbb{N}$) can be separated by small deformations if the sum of their upper box dimensions is less than $d$. In this paper, we demonstrate that this dimension…

We present a complete proof of a theorem of C.G. Moreira. Under mild checkable conditions, the theorem asserts that the Hausdorff dimension of the arithmetic sum of two dynamically defined Cantor subsets of the real line, equals either the…

In this paper, we construct (a) a pair of two regular Cantor sets in higher dimension which exhibits $C^1$-stable intersection and (b) a hyperbolic basic set which exhibits $C^2$-robust homoclinic tangency of the largest codimension for any…

As a model to provide a hands-on, elementary understanding of chaotic dynamics in dimension three, we introduce a $C^2$-open set of diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb R^3$ having two horseshoes with different dimensions of instability. We prove…

The criterion of the recurrent compact set was introduced by Moreira and Yoccoz to prove that stable intersections of regular Cantor sets on the real line are dense in the region where the sum of their Hausdorff dimensions is bigger than 1.…

We will prove a multidimensional conformal version of the scale recurrence lemma of Moreira and Yoccoz \cite{MY} for Cantor sets in the complex plane. We then use this new recurrence lemma, together with the ideas in \cite{M}, to prove that…

Let $m\in\mathbb N_{\ge 2}$, and let $\mathcal K=\{K_\lambda: \lambda\in(0, 1/m]\}$ be a class of Cantor sets, where $K_{\lambda}=\{\sum_{i=1}^\infty d_i\lambda^i: d_i\in\{0,1,\ldots, m-1\}, i\ge 1\}$. We investigate in this paper the…

We construct Ahlfors regular Cantor sets $K$ of small dimension in the plane, such that the Hausdorff measure on $K$ is equivalent to the harmonic measure associated to its complement. In particular the Green function in $R^2 \backslash K$…

For a compact subset K of the plane and a point x, we define the visible part of K from x to be the set K_x={u\in K : [x,u]\cap K={u}}. (Here [x,u] denotes the closed line segment joining x to u.) In this paper, we use energies to show that…

We investigate stable intersections of conformal Cantor sets and their consequences to dynamical systems. First we define this type of Cantor set and relate it to horseshoes appearing in automorphisms of $\C^2$. Then we study limit…

We show that under natural technical conditions, the sum of a $C^2$ dynamically defined Cantor set with a compact set in most cases (for almost all parameters) has positive Lebesgue measure, provided that the sum of the Hausdorff dimensions…

Let $\mathcal K=\langle\mathcal R, \delta\rangle$ be a closed ordered differential field, in the sense of M. Singer, and $C$ its field of constants. In this note, we prove that, for sets definable in the pair $\mathcal M=\langle \mathcal R,…

Inspired by the work of Newhouse in one real variable, we introduce a relevant notion of thickness for dynamical Cantor sets of the plane associated to a holomorphic IFS. Our main result is a complex version of Newhouse's Gap Lemma : we…

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 show that for all Cantor set $K_1$ on ${\mathbb R}^d$, it is always possible to find another Cantor set $K_2$ so that the sum $g(K_1)+ K_2$ (where $g$ is a $C^1$ local diffeomorphism) has non-empty interior, and the existence of the…

In this paper we introduce and study a certain intricate Cantor-like set $C$ contained in unit interval. Our main result is to show that the set $C$ itself, as well as the set of dissipative points within $C$, both have Hausdorff dimension…

For a compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^1$ and a family $\{C_\lambda\}_{\lambda\in J}$ of dynamically defined Cantor sets sufficiently close to affine with $\text{dim}_H\, K+\text{dim}_H\, C_\lambda>1$ for all $\lambda\in J$, under natural…

Let $C$ be the attractor of the IFS $\{f_{d}(z) = (-n+i)^{-1}(z+d): d\in D\}$, $D\subset\{0, 1, \ldots, n^{2}\}$ and let $\dim$ denote the box-counting dimension. It is known that for all $\lambda\in[0, 1]$, that the set of complex numbers…
