The Erd\H{o}s--Hajnal Theorem asserts that non-universal graphs, that is, graphs that do not contain an induced copy of some fixed graph $H$, have homogeneous sets of size significantly larger than one can generally expect to find in a…
A subset of the Cantor cube is null-additive if its algebraic sum with any null set is null. We construct a set of cardinality continuum such that: all continuous images of the set into the Cantor cube are null-additive, it contains a…
The enumeration degrees of sets of natural numbers can be identified with the degrees of difficulty of enumerating neighborhood bases of points in a universal second-countable $T_0$-space (e.g. the $\omega$-power of the Sierpi\'nski space).…
This paper provides some counterexamples to Cantor's contributions to the foundations of Set Theory. The first counterexample forces Cantor's Diagonal Method (DM) to yield one of the numbers in the target list. To study this anomaly, and…
The embracing of actual infinity in mathematics leads naturally to the question of comparing the sizes of infinite collections. The basic dilemma is that the Cantor Principle (CP), according to which two sets have the same size if there is…
Erd\H{o}s asked many mathematical questions. Some lead to exciting research, others turned out to be easily solved. In this article, we provide evidence that one of his questions, Erd\H{o}s problem \#278 , has no general answer. We do so by…
The Hausdorff-Alexandroff Theorem states that any compact metric space is the continuous image of Cantor's ternary set $C$. It is well known that there are compact Hausdorff spaces of cardinality equal to that of $C$ that are not continuous…
In this paper, we study the analogous Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture in higher dimensions and generalize the Eigen-Falconer theorem. We show that if $A=\{\boldsymbol{x}_n\}_{n=1}^\infty \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ is a sequence of non-zero…
We give a proof of the Universality Conjecture for orthogonal and symplectic ensembles of random matrices in the scaling limit for a class of weights w(x)=exp(-V(x)) where V is a polynomial, V(x)=kappa_{2m}x^{2m}+..., kappa_{2m}>0. For such…
In spaces of metrics, we investigate topological distributions of the doubling property, the uniform disconnectedness, and the uniform perfectness, which are the quasi-symmetrically invariant properties appearing in the David--Semmes…
We consider Delone sets with finite local complexity. We characterize validity of a subadditive ergodic theorem by uniform positivity of certain weights. The latter can be considered to be an averaged version of linear repetitivity. In this…
We introduce the concept of hereditarily non uniformly perfect sets, compact sets for which no compact subset is uniformly perfect, and compare them with the following: Hausdorff dimension zero sets, logarithmic capacity zero sets, Lebesgue…
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…
Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture was proposed by P. Erd\H{o}s in 1974. The conjecture remains open for exponentially decaying sequences as well as Cantor sets that have both Newhouse thickness and Hausdorff dimension zero. In this article,…
In the paper, we investigate the following fundamental question. For a set $\mathcal{K}$ in $\mathbb{L}^0(\mathbb{P})$, when does there exist an equivalent probability measure $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $\mathcal{K}$ is uniformly integrable in…
The theory of regular model sets is highly developed, but does not cover examples such as the visible lattice points, the k-th power-free integers, or related systems. They belong to the class of weak model sets, where the window may have a…
Erd\H{o}s conjectured that for any set $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ with positive lower asymptotic density, there are infinite sets $B,C\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ such that $B+C\subseteq A$. We verify Erd\H{o}s' conjecture in the case that $A$ has…
We prove that if $V=L$ then there is a $\Pi^1_1$ maximal orthogonal (i.e. mutually singular) set of measures on Cantor space. This provides a natural counterpoint to the well-known Theorem of Preiss and Rataj that no analytic set of…
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…
Like the classical potential theory, it was conjectured that there exists equivalence between locally and globally pluripolar and complete pluripolar sets, namely, Problem I of Lelong, and was solved by Josefson, Bedford - Taylor and…
