The classical Besicovitch projection theorem states that if a planar set $E$ with finite length is purely unrectifiable, then almost all orthogonal projections of $E$ have zero length. We prove a quantitative version of this result: if…

By using a multiscale analysis, we establish quantitative versions of the Besicovitch projection theorem (almost every projection of a purely unrectifiable set in the plane of finite length has measure zero) and a standard companion result,…

The Favard length of a Borel set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is the average length of its orthogonal projections. We prove that if $E$ is Ahlfors 1-regular and it has large Favard length, then it contains a big piece of a Lipschitz graph. This…

The classical Besicovitch-Federer projection theorem implies that the d-dimensional Hausdorff measure of a set in Euclidean space with non-negligible d-unrectifiable part will strictly decrease under orthogonal projection onto almost every…

In this paper we establish a Besicovitch-Federer type projection theorem for general measures. Specifically, let $\mu$ be a finite Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and let $0 < m < n$ be an integer. We show that, under the sole assumption…

The purpose of this article is to prove a generalisation of the Besicovitch-Federer projection theorem about a characterisation of rectifiable and unrectifiable sets in terms of their projections. For an $m$-unrectifiable set…

Here is an example of a plane set of vanishing area and consisting of line-segments whose directions cover an angle : let E be a Cantor set of dissection ratio 1/4 (therefore dimension 1/2) carried by the horizontal axis and E' the image of…

We characterise purely $n$-unrectifiable subsets $S$ of a complete metric space $X$ with finite Hausdorff $n$-measure by studying arbitrarily small perturbations of elements of the set of all bounded 1-Lipschitz functions $f\colon X \to…

We construct a purely unrectifiable set of finite $\mathcal H^1$-measure in every infinite dimensional separable Banach space $X$ whose image under every $0\neq x^*\in X^*$ has positive Lebesgue measure. This demonstrates completely the…

The Favard length of a subset of the plane is defined as the average of its orthogonal projections. This quantity is related to the probabilistic Buffon needle problem; that is, the Favard length of a set is proportional to the probability…

We prove that if $E$ is a planar self-similar set with similarity dimension $d$ whose defining maps generate a dense set of rotations, then the $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the orthogonal projection of $E$ onto any line is zero. We…

We consider the following classical conjecture of Besicovitch: a $1$-dimensional Borel set in the plane with finite Hausdorff $1$-dimensional measure $\mathcal{H}^1$ which has lower density strictly larger than $\frac{1}{2}$ almost…

We study projections onto non-degenerate one-dimensional families of lines and planes in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Using the classical potential theoretic approach of R. Kaufman, one can show that the Hausdorff dimension of at most…

We prove that if $\Phi:X\to Y$ a mapping of weak bounded length distortion from a quasiconvex and complete metric space $X$ to any metric space $Y$, then for any Lipschitz mapping $f:\mathbb{R}^k\supset E\to X$ we have that ${\mathcal…

We prove that a purely unrectifiable self-similar set of finite 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure in the plane, satisfying the Open Set Condition, has radial projection of zero length from every point.

We prove that most one-dimensional projections of a discrete subset of a plane are either dense in R (the real line), or form a discrete subset of R. More precisely, the set E of exceptional directions (for which the indicated dichotomy…

In this paper we introduce the notion of rational Hausdorff divisor, we analyze the dimension and irreducibility of its associated linear system of curves, and we prove that all irreducible real curves belonging to the linear system are…

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…

A quasiplane $f(V)$ is the image of an $n$-dimensional Euclidean subspace $V$ of ${\Bbb R}^N$ ($1\leq n\leq N-1$) under a quasiconformal map $f:{\Bbb R}^N\to{\Bbb R}^N$ . We give sufficient conditions in terms of the weak quasisymmetry…

We study the pairs of projections $$ P_If=\chi_If ,\ \ Q_Jf= \left(\chi_J \hat{f}\right)\check{\ } , \ \ f\in L^2(\mathbb{R}^n), $$ where $I, J\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ are sets of finite Lebesgue measure, $\chi_I, \chi_J$ denote the…
