By using a multiscale analysis, we establish quantitative versions of the Besicovitch projection theorem (almost every projection of a purely unrectifiable set in the plane of finite length has measure zero) and a standard companion result,…
The deck, $\mathcal{D}(X)$, of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}]\colon x \in X\}$, where $[Y]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Y$. A space $X$ is (topologically) reconstructible if whenever…
For $\lambda\in(0,1/2]$ let $K_\lambda \subset\mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set generated by the iterated function system $\{\lambda x, \lambda x+1-\lambda\}$. Given $x\in(0,1/2)$, let $\Lambda(x)$ be the set of $\lambda\in(0,1/2]$ such…
We say that a set is exhaustible if it admits algorithmic universal quantification for continuous predicates in finite time, and searchable if there is an algorithm that, given any continuous predicate, either selects an element for which…
We present a short proof of Cantor's Theorem (circa 1870s): if $a_n \cos nx + b_n \sin nx \to 0$ for each $x$ in some (nonempty) open interval, where $a_n, b_n$ are sequences of complex numbers, then $a_n$ and $b_n$ converge to 0.
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…
We construct a combinatorially large measure zero subset of the Cantor set.
We prove that every smooth $n$-dimensional knot in $\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ can be ambiently isotoped into the Menger $n$-dimensional continuum. In contrast with classical embedding theorems for universal compacta, our construction is explicit…
We introduce a topological object, called hairy Cantor set, which in many ways enjoys the universal features of objects like Jordan curve, Cantor set, Cantor bouquet, hairy Jordan curve, etc. We give an axiomatic characterisation of hairy…
It is known that if a compact set $E$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has Hausdorff dimension greater than $(d+1)/2$, then its $n$-chain distance set $$\Delta^n(E) = \left\{\left(\left|x^1-x^2\right|,\cdots, \left|x^{n}- x^{n+1}\right|\right)\in…
It was shown by Antunovi\'{c}, Burdzy, Peres, and Ruscher that a Cantor function added to one-dimensional Brownian motion has zeros in the middle $\alpha$-Cantor set, $\alpha \in (0,1)$, with positive probability if and only if $\alpha \neq…
The Cantor pairing polynomials are extended to larger 2D sub-domains and more complex mapping, of which the most important property is the bijectivity. If corners are involved inside (but not the borders of) domain, more than one connected…
We give sufficient conditions for two Cantor sets of the line to be nested for a positive set of translation parameters. This problem occurs in diophantine approximations. It also occurs as a toy model of the parameter selection for…
Bing-Whitehead Cantor sets were introduced by DeGryse and Osborne in dimension three and greater to produce examples of Cantor sets that were non standard (wild), but still had simply connected complement. In contrast to an earlier example…
We consider the Vietoris hyperspaces $\mathcal S(\mathbb R^n)$ of simple closed curves in $\mathbb R^n$, $n=2,3$, and their subspaces $\mathcal S_P(\mathbb R^2)$ of planar simple closed polygons, $\mathcal K_P$ of polygonal knots, and…
We write down an asymptotic expression for action coordinates in an integrable Hamiltonian system with a focus-focus equilibrium. From the singularity in the actions we deduce that the Arnol'd determinant grows infinitely large near the…
Nazarov, Peres and Volberg proved recently that the Favard length of the $n$-th iteration of the four-corner Cantor set is bounded from above by $n^{-c}$ for an appropriate $c$. We generalize this result to all product Cantor sets whose…
In this paper we study a class of random Cantor sets. We determine their almost sure Hausdorff, packing, box, and Assouad dimensions. From a topological point of view, we also compute their typical dimensions in the sense of Baire category.…
We construct a trigonometric series converging to zero everywhere on a subsequence, with coefficients tending to zero. We show that any such series must satisfy that the subsequence is very sparse, and that the support of the related…
In 1984, K. Mahler asked how well elements in the Cantor middle third set can be approximated by rational numbers from that set, and by rational numbers outside of that set. We consider more general missing digit sets $C$ and construct…
