In this paper, we prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the Rauzy gasket is less than 2. By this result, we answer a question addressed by Pierre Arnoux. Also, this question is a very particular case of the conjecture stated by S.P. Novikov…

The Rauzy gasket $R$ is the maximal invariant set of a certain renormalization procedure for special systems of isometries naturally appearing in the context of Novikov's problem in conductivity theory for monocrystals. It was conjectured…

We present a purely elementary proof that the Rauzy gasket has Hausdorff dimension strictly smaller than two.

The Rauzy gasket is the attractor of a parabolic, nonconformal iterated function system on the projective plane which describes an exceptional parameter set in various important topological and dynamical problems. Since 2009 there have been…

In this article, we establish the variational principle of the affinity exponent of Borel Anosov representations. We also establish such a principle of the Rauzy gasket. In Li-Pan-Xu, they obtain a dimension formula of the stationary…

The Apollonian gasket is a well-studied circle packing. Important properties of the packing, including the distribution of the circle radii, are governed by its Hausdorff dimension. No closed form is currently known for the Hausdorff…

We prove a packing exponent formula for the upper box-counting dimension of attractors of certain projective iterated function systems. This partially affirms a conjecture of De Leo, and gives that the box-counting dimension of the Rauzy…

We obtain new lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar Borel sets of dimension slightly larger than $1$, improving recent estimates of Keleti and Shmerkin, and of Liu in this regime. In…

We prove that the infinitely generated Apollonian gasket has full Hausdorff dimension spectrum. Our proof, which is computer assisted, relies on an iterative technique introduced by the first three authors in [3] and on a flexible method…

The authors have recently obtained a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension of the sets of vectors $(x_1, \ldots, x_d)\in [0,1)^d$ with large Weyl sums, namely of vectors for which $$ \left| \sum_{n=1}^{N}\exp(2\pi i (x_1 n+\ldots +x_d…

We adapt a recent theory for the random close packing of polydisperse spheres in three dimensions [R. S. Farr and R. D. Groot, J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 131} 244104 (2009)] in order to predict the Hausdorff dimension $d_{A}$ of the Apollonian…

Katz and Zahl used a planebrush argument to prove that Kakeya sets in $\mathbb{R}^4$ have Hausdorff dimension at least 3.059. In the special case when the Kakeya set is plany, their argument gives a better lower bound of 10/3. We give a…

We provide an estimate from below for the lower Hausdorff dimension of measures on the unit circle based on the arithmetic properties of their spectra. We obtain our bounds via application of a general result for abstract $q$-regular…

We produce an upper bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the graph of a Weierstrass-type function. Whilst strictly weaker than existing results, it has the advantage of being directly computable from the theory of hyperbolic iterated…

In this work, we determine a sharp upper bound on the orthogonality defect of HKZ reduced bases up to dimension $3$. Using this result, we determine a general upper bound for the orthogonality defect of HKZ reduced bases of arbitrary rank.…

The Hausdorff dimension of the set of points that are covered infinitely many times by a sequence of randomly distributed balls in the unit cube can be expressed in terms of the sizes of the balls. This note presents a new proof of the…

In this article, the Hausdorff dimension is estimated using the box-counting dimension and the information dimension. It is shown that the former is an upper bound for the Hausdorff dimension, while the latter is a lower bound for the…

Let $A, B$, be finite subsets of an abelian group, and let $G \subset A \times B$ be such that $# A, # B, # \{a+b: (a,b) \in G \} \leq N$. We consider the question of estimating the quantity $# \{a-b: (a,b) \in G \}$. Recently Bourgain…

We prove new bounds on the dimensions of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar sets. Among other results, we show that if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension $s>1$, then its distance set has Hausdorff…

We prove that any Besicovitch set in $\mathbb{R}^3$ must have Hausdorff dimension at least $5/2+\epsilon_0$ for some small constant $\epsilon_0>0$. This follows from a more general result about the volume of unions of tubes that satisfy the…
