It is a folk conjecture that for alpha > 1/2 there is no alpha-Hoelder surface in the subRiemannian Heisenberg group. Namely, it is expected that there is no embedding from an open subset of R^2 into the Heisenberg group that is Hoelder…
The existence and nonexistence of $\lambda$-harmonic functions in unbounded domains of $\mathbb{H}^n$ are investigated. We prove that if the $(n-1)/2$ Hausdorff measure of the asymptotic boundary of a domain $\Omega$ is zero, then there is…
In 1994, John Cobb asked: given $N>m>k>0$, does there exist a Cantor set in $\mathbb R^N$ such that each of its projections into $m$-planes is exactly $k$-dimensional? Such sets were described for $(N,m,k)=(2,1,1)$ by L.Antoine (1924) and…
We provide a definition of a new critical exponent $\beta$ that has the interpretation of a type of local walk dimension, and may be defined on any compact metric space. We then specialize to the case of random walks that jump uniformly in…
Let $g_0$ be a smooth pinched negatively curved Riemannian metric on a complete surface $N$, and let $\Lambda_0$ be a basic hyperbolic set of the geodesic flow of $g_0$ with Hausdorff dimension strictly smaller than two. Given a small…
In this work, we are interested in characterizing typical (generic) dimensional properties of invariant measures associated with the full-shift system, $T$, in a product space whose alphabet is a perfect and separable metric space (thus,…
By applying a 2014 result on the distribution of full cylinders, we give a proof of the useful folklore: for any $\beta>1$, the Hausdorff dimension of an arbitrary set in the shift space $S_\beta$ is equal to the Hausdorff dimension of its…
The aim of this work is to give a pointfree description of the Cantor set. It can be shown that the Cantor set is homeomorphic to the $p$-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_{p}:=\{x\in\mathbb{Q}_{p}: |x|_p\leq 1\}$ for every prime number $p$. To…
We present a construction of a proper holomorphic embedding $f\colon \Bbb P^1\setminus C\hookrightarrow \Bbb C^2$, where C is a Cantor set obtained by removing smaller and smaller vertical and horizontal strips from a square of side 2,…
We consider the spectrum of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian for small values of the coupling constant. It is known that this set is a Cantor set of zero Lebesgue measure. Here we study the limit, as the value of the coupling constant approaches…
Let $\{ B(t) \colon 0\leq t\leq 1\}$ be a linear Brownian motion and let $\dim$ denote the Hausdorff dimension. Let $\alpha>\frac12$ and $1\leq \beta \leq 2$. We prove that, almost surely, there exists no set $A\subset[0,1]$ such that $\dim…
Let $\mathcal{C}\subseteq[0,1]$ be a Cantor set. In the classical $\mathcal{C}\pm\mathcal{C}$ problems, modifying the ``size'' of $\mathcal{C}$ has a magnified effect on $\mathcal{C}\pm\mathcal{C}$. However, any gain in $\mathcal{C}$…
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…
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…
Given $\lambda\in(0, 1)$, let $E_\lambda$ be the self-similar set generated by the iterated function system $\{x/3,(x+\lambda)/3,(x+2)/3\}$. Then $E_\lambda$ is a self-similar set with overlaps. We obtain the necessary and sufficient…
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…
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…
By introducing new deformations on symbolic Cantor sets and ultrametric spaces, we prove that doubling ultrametric spaces admit bilipschitz embedding into Cantor sets. If in addition the spaces are uniformly perfect, we show that they are…
We study the nodal sets of Neumann Laplace eigenfunctions in a bounded domain with $\mathcal{C}^{1,1}$ boundary. We show that for $u_\lambda$ such that $\Delta u_\lambda + \lambda u_\lambda = 0 $ with the Neumann boundary condition…
In this paper we consider the relationship between the Assouad and box-counting dimension and how both behave under the operation of taking products. We introduce the notion of `equi-homogeneity' of a set, which requires a uniformity in the…
