Let $K\subset\mathbb R^d$ be a compact subset equipped with a $\delta$-Ahlfors regular measure $\mu$. For any $\tau>1/d$ and any ``inhomogeneous'' vector $\boldsymbol{\theta}\in\mathbb R^d$, let $W_d(\psi_\tau,\boldsymbol{\theta})$ denote…

Let $k,d,\lambda\geqslant1$ be integers with $d\geqslant\lambda $. Let $m(k,d,\lambda)$ be the maximum positive integer $n$ such that every set of $n$ points (not necessarily in general position) in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ has the property that…

For any j_1,...,j_n>0 with j_1+...+j_n=1 and any x \in R^n, we consider the set of points y \in R^n for which max_{1\leq i\leq n}(||qx_i-y_i||^{1/j_i})>c/q for some positive constant c=c(y) and all q\in N. These sets are the `twisted'…

Let Q_i, i=1,...,t, be real nondegenerate indefinite quadratic forms in d variables. We investigate under what conditions the closure of the set {(Q_1(x),...,Q_t(x)): x\in Z^d-{0}} contains (0,..,0). As a corollary, we deduce several…

We derive two fixed point theorems for a class of metric spaces that includes all Banach spaces and all complete Busemann spaces. We obtain our results by the use of a 1-Lipschitz barycenter construction and an existence result for…

A $1$-Lipschitz map $f$ from a convex compact set to itself has fixed points. This consequence of Brouwer's or Schauder's fixed point theorem has more elementary proofs by approximating $f$ by $\lambda$-contractions, $f_\lambda$. We study…

Let $\mathfrak h_t$ be the KPZ fixed point started from any initial condition that guarantees $\mathfrak h_t$ has a maximum at every time $t$ almost surely. For any fixed $t$, almost surely $\max \mathfrak h_t$ is uniquely attained.…

Let $S \subset {\mathbb R}^d$ be contained in the unit ball. Let $\Delta(S)=\{||a-b||:a,b \in S\}$, the Euclidean distance set of $S$. Falconer conjectured that the $\Delta(S)$ has positive Lebesque measure if the Hausdorff dimension of $S$…

This work is motivated by the problem of finding locally compact group topologies for piecewise full groups (a.k.a.~ topological full groups). We determine that any piecewise full group that is locally compact in the compact-open topology…

The ternary Cantor set $\mathcal{C}$, constructed by George Cantor in 1883, is the best known example of a perfect nowhere-dense set in the real line. The present article we study the basic properties $\mathcal{C}$ and also study in detail…

We study open point sets in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{R}^d$ without a pair of points an integral distance apart. By a result of Furstenberg, Katznelson, and Weiss such sets must be of Lebesgue upper density zero. We are interested in how…

The total disaster may be controllable if not preventable. We will explore this phenomenon for singularities in metric spaces. A point in an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space is called regular if its tangent cone is isometric to $\mathbb…

Denoting the Hausdorff dimension of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian with coupling $\lambda$ by $\mathrm{HD}_\lambda$, we prove that for all but countably many $\lambda$, the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum of the square Fibonacci Hamiltonian…

We show that the group of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set $H(K)$ has ample generics, that is, for every $m$ the diagonal conjugacy action $g\cdot(h_1,h_2,..., h_m)=(gh_1g^{-1},gh_2g^{-1},..., gh_mg^{-1})$ of $H(K)$ on $H(K)^m$ has a…

Let $CLB_H(X)$ denote the hyperspace of closed bounded subsets of a metric space $X$, endowed with the Hausdorff metric topology. We prove, among others, that natural dense subspaces of $CLB_H(R^m)$ of all nowhere dense closed sets, of all…

We construct a combinatorially large measure zero subset of the Cantor set.

We consider Cantor measures on the line, with contraction factor $N^{-1}=p^{-\alpha}$ (where $p$ a positive prime, $\alpha$ a positive integer) and $m$ positive integer digits lying in distinct residue classes modulo $N$. We obtain a…

We consider digits-deleted sets or Cantor-type sets with $\beta$-expansions. We calculate the Hausdorff dimension $d$ of these sets and show that $d$ is continuous with respect to $\beta$. The $d$-dimentional Hausdorff measure of these sets…

We consider a family of discrete Jacobi operators on the one-dimensional integer lattice, with the diagonal and the off-diagonal entries given by two sequences generated by the Fibonacci substitution on two letters. We show that the…

We study the topology of all possible subsums of the generalized multigeometric series $k_1f(x)+k_2f(x)+\dots+k_mf(x)+\dots + k_1f(x^n)+\dots+k_mf(x^n)+\dots,$ where $k_1, k_2, \dots, k_m$ are fixed positive real numbers and $f$ runs along…
