For a compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^1$ and a family $\{C_\lambda\}_{\lambda\in J}$ of dynamically defined Cantor sets sufficiently close to affine with $\text{dim}_H\, K+\text{dim}_H\, C_\lambda>1$ for all $\lambda\in J$, under natural…

In this article we study for which Cantor sets there exists a gauge-function h, such that the h-Hausdorff-measure is positive and finite. We show that the collection of sets for which this is true is dense in the set of all compact subsets…

Let $C(\lambda )\subset \lbrack 0,1]$ denote the central Cantor set generated by a sequence $ \lambda = \left( \lambda_{n} \right) \in \left( 0,\frac{1}{2} \right) ^{\mathbb{N}}$. By the known trichotomy, the difference set $ C(\lambda…

Let $C$ be a closed convex cone in ${\mathbb R}^n$, pointed and with interior points. We consider sets of the form $A=C\setminus A^\bullet$, where $A^\bullet\subset C$ is a closed convex set. If $A$ has finite volume (Lebesgue measure),…

Let $(a_n), (b_n)$ be linear recursive sequences of integers with characteristic polynomials $A(X),B(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ respectively. Assume that $A(X)$ has a dominating and simple real root $\alpha$, while $B(X)$ has a pair of conjugate…

A Cantor set is a non-empty, compact set that has neither interior nor isolated points. In this paper a Cantor set $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is constructed such that every set definable in $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot,K)$ is Borel. In addition, we…

Let $G=C_n\oplus C_{mn}$ with $n\geq 2$ and $m\geq 1$, and let $k\in [0,n-1]$. It is known that any sequence of $mn+n-1+k$ terms from $G$ must contain a nontrivial zero-sum of length at most $mn+n-1-k$. The associated inverse question is to…

In this paper we consider combinatorial numbers $C_{m, k}$ for $m\ge 1$ and $k\ge 0$ which unifies the entries of the Catalan triangles $ B_{n, k}$ and $ A_{n, k}$ for appropriate values of parameters $m$ and $k$, i.e., $B_{n,…

I begin with a simple modular form motivated proof of the following: Let $C_{n}$ in $Z/2[[t]]$ be defined by $C_{n+4} = C_{n+3} + (t^{4}+t^{3}+t^{2}+t)C_{n} + t^{n}(t^{2}+t)$, with initial values $0$, $1$, $t$ and $t^{2}$ for $C_{0}$,…

We work in the Cantor space $2^\omega$. The results of the paper adhere the following pattern. Let $\mathcal{I}\in \{\mathcal{M}, \mathcal{N}, \mathcal{M}\cap \mathcal{N}, \mathcal{E}\}$ and $T$ be a perfect, uniformly perfect or Silver…

A spin system is a sequence of self-adjoint unitary operators $U_1,U_2,...$ acting on a Hilbert space $H$ which either commute or anticommute, $U_iU_j=\pm U_jU_i$ for all $i,j$; it is is called irreducible when $\{U_1,U_2,...\}$ is an…

We use a characterization of Minkowski measurability to study the asymptotics of best packing on cut-out subsets of the real line with Minkowski dimension $d\in(0,1)$. Our main result is a proof that Minkowski measurability is a sufficient…

Our main result is a construction of four families C_1,C_2,B_1,B_2 which are equipollent with the power set of the real line R and satisfy the following properties. (i) The members of the families are proper subfields of R whose algebraic…

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…

Let C(a) be the central Cantor set generated by a sequence a with terms in (0,1). It is known that the difference set C(a)-C(a) of C(a) can has one of three possible forms: a finite union of closed intervals, a Cantor set, or a Cantorval.…

We find a semi-algebraic description of the Minkowski sum $\mathcal{A}_{3,n}$ of $n$ copies of the bounded twisted cubic $\{(t,t^2,t^3)\mid -1\leq t\leq 1\}$ for each integer $n\geq3$. These descriptions provide efficient membership tests…

\emph{Minkowski rings} are certain rings of simple functions on the Euclidean space $W = {\mathbb{R}}^d$ with multiplicative structure derived from Minkowski addition of convex polytopes. When the ring is (finitely) generated by a set…

A class of ultrametric Cantor sets $(C, d_{u})$ introduced recently in literature (Raut, S and Datta, D P (2009), Fractals, 17, 45-52) is shown to enjoy some novel properties. The ultrametric $d_{u}$ is defined using the concept of {\em…

Pairs of metrics in a three-dimensional linear vector space are considered, one of which is a Minkowski type metric with the signature (+,-,-). Such metric pairs are classified and canonical presentations for them in each class are…

An analogue of the Riemannian Geometry for an ultrametric Cantor set (C, d) is described using the tools of Noncommutative Geometry. Associated with (C, d) is a weighted rooted tree, its Michon tree. This tree allows to define a family of…
