We prove the following restricted projection theorem. Let $n\ge 3$ and $\Sigma \subset S^{n}$ be an $(n-1)$-dimensional $C^2$ manifold such that $\Sigma$ has sectional curvature $>1$. Let $Z \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ be analytic and let $0…
Dimension conservation for almost every projection has been well-established by the work of Marstrand, Mattila and Hunt and Kaloshin. More recently, Hochman and Shmerkin used CP-chains, a tool first introduced by Furstenberg, to prove all…
We establish several optimal estimates for exceptional parameters in the projection of fractal measures: (1) For a parametric family of self-similar measures satisfying a transversality condition, the set of parameters leading to a…
Furstenberg (1967) calculated the Hausdorff and Minkowski dimensions of one-sided subshifts in terms of topological entropy. We generalize this to $\mathbb{Z}^2$-subshifts. Our generalization involves mean dimension theory. We calculate the…
We study Smale skew product endomorphisms (introduced in [27]) now over countable graph directed Markov systems, and we prove the exact dimensionality of conditional measures in fibers, and then the global exact dimensionality of the…
We give a new proof of a sumset conjecture of Furstenberg that was first proved by Hochman and Shmerkin in 2012: if $\log r / \log s$ is irrational and $X$ and $Y$ are $\times r$- and $\times s$-invariant subsets of $[0,1]$, respectively,…
In this paper we use the theory of computing to study fractal dimensions of projections in Euclidean spaces. A fundamental result in fractal geometry is Marstrand's projection theorem, which shows that for every analytic set E, for almost…
We investigate the Fourier dimension, $\dim_F\mu$, of Mandelbrot multiplicative cascade measures $\mu$ on the $d$-dimensional unit cube. We show that if $\mu$ is the cascade measure generated by a sub-exponential random variable then…
We use recent advances in the theory of Furstenberg sets to prove new incidence results of Szemer\'edi--Trotter strength for $\delta$-discretized structures with Cartesian product flavor. We use these results to make progress on a number of…
We prove the following extension of the Wiener--Wintner Theorem in Ergodic Theor and the Carleson Theorem on pointwise convergence of Fourier series: For all measure preserving flows $ (X,\mu , T_t)$ and $ f\in L^p (X,\mu)$, there is a set…
In the analysis on self-similar fractal sets, the Kusuoka measure plays an important role (cf. \cite{kusuoka2}, \cite{kajino}, \cite{str3}). Here we investigate the Kusuoka measure from an ergodic theoretic viewpoint, seen as an invariant…
We give examples of sequences defined by smooth functions of intermediate growth, and we study the Furstenberg systems that model their statistical behavior. In particular, we show that the systems are Bernoulli. We do so by studying…
We exhibit proofs of two ergodic-theoretic results in the study of multiple recurrence using an analog of the density-increment argument of Roth and Gowers: Furstenberg's Multiple Recurrence Theorem (which implies Szemer\'edi's Theorem),…
We prove the Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser conjecture on the hyperbolicity of the renormalization transformation of bounded type. This gives the first computer-free proof of the original Feigenbaum observation of the universal parameter…
Let $\Lambda = \{\lambda_{k}\}$ denote a sequence of complex numbers and assume that that the counting function $#\{\lambda_{k} \in \Lambda : | \lambda_{k}| < T\} =O(T^{n})$ for some integer $n$. From Hadamard's theorem, we can construct an…
We establish convergence in norm and pointwise almost everywhere for the non-conventional (in the sense of Furstenberg) bilinear polynomial ergodic averages \[ A_N(f,g)(x) := \frac{1}{N} \sum_{n =1}^N f(T^nx) g(T^{P(n)}x)\] as $N \to…
We show that in many parametrized families of self-similar measures, their projections, and their convolutions, the set of parameters for which the measure fails to be absolutely continuous is very small - of co-dimension at least one in…
Let $L$ be a holomorphic line bundle on a compact complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n,$ and let $e^{-\phi}$ be a continuous metric on $L.$ Fixing a measure $d\mu$ on $X$ gives a sequence of Hilbert spaces consisting of holomorphic sections…
We present strong versions of Marstrand's projection theorems and other related theorems. For example, if E is a plane set of positive and finite s-dimensional Hausdorff measure, there is a set X of directions of Lebesgue measure 0, such…
We investigate the occurrence of additive and multiplicative structures in random subsets of the natural numbers. Specifically, for a Bernoulli random subset of $\mathbb{N}$ where each integer is included independently with probability…
