Peres and Solomyak asked the question: Do there exist self-similar sets with positive Lebesgue measure and empty interior? This question was answered in the affirmative by Cs\"{o}rnyei et al. They gave a parameterised family of iterated…
We consider a special one-parameter family of d-dimensional random, homogeneous self-similar iterated function systems (IFSs) satisfying the finite type condition. The object of our study is the positivity of Lebesgue measure and the…
Let $K\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set defined on $\mathbb{R}$. It is easy to prove that if the Lebesgue measure of $K$ is zero, then for Lebesgue almost every $t$, $$K+t=\{x+t:x\in K\}$$ only consists of irrational or…
In relation to the Erd\H os similarity problem (show that for any infinite set $A$ of real numbers there exists a set of positive Lebesgue measure which contains no affine copy of $A$) we give some new examples of infinite sets which are…
We consider nonlinear, or "event-dependent", sampling, i.e. such that the sampling instances {tk} depend on the function being sampled. The use of such sampling in the construction of Lebesgue's integral sums is noted and discussed as…
We introduce a notion of density point and prove results analogous to Lebesgue's density theorem for various well-known ideals on Cantor space and Baire space. In fact, we isolate a class of ideals for which our results hold. In contrast to…
We show that for any two homogeneous Cantor sets with sum of Hausdorff dimensions that exceeds 1, one can create an interval in the sumset by applying arbitrary small perturbations (without leaving the class of homogeneous Cantor sets). In…
The class of generic structures among those consisting of the measure algebra of a probability space equipped with an automorphism is axiomatizable by positive sentences interpreted using an approximate semantics. The separable generic…
In the present paper, we study a set that can be treated as a generalised set of subsums for a geometric series. This object was discovered independently in various mathematical aspects. For instance, it is closely related to various…
We show that for any pair of self-similar Cantor sets with sum of Hausdorff dimensions greater than 1, one can create an interval in the sumset by applying arbitrary small perturbations (without leaving the class of self-similar Cantor…
The structure of a self-similar set with open set condition does not change under magnification. For self-affine sets the situation is completely different. We consider planar self-affine Cantor sets E of the type studied by Bedford,…
We calculate the almost sure Hausdorff dimension of uniformly random self-similar fractals. These random fractals are generated from a finite family of similarities, where the linear parts of the mappings are independent uniformly…
We analyze a class of piecewise linear parabolic maps on the torus, namely those obtained by considering a linear map with double eigenvalue one and taking modulo one in each component. We show that within this two parameter family of maps,…
Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a rotation and reflection free self-similar set satisfying the strong separation condition, with dimension $\dim K = s > 1$. Intersecting $K$ with translates of a fixed line, one can study the $(s -…
We show that for any infinite set $A$ in ${\mathbb R}$, there exists a compact set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of positive Lebesgue measure that does not contain any non-trivial affine copy of $A$. This proves the Erd\"os similarity…
In this paper, we study the smoothness of the density function of absolutely continuous measures supported on random self-similar sets on the line. We show that the natural projection of a measure with symbolic local dimension greater than…
A classical theorem of Lusin states that all analytic sets are Lebesgue-measurable. In this article we established the reverse mathematical strength of Lusin's theorem, which depends on how precisely it is formalized. By doing so, we answer…
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…
Suppose $a_n$ is a real, nonnegative sequence that does not increase exponentially. For any $p<1$ we contruct a Lebesgue measurable set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ which has measure at least $p$ in any unit interval and which contains no…
In a series of papers, M.Talagrand, the second author and others investigated at length the properties and structure of pointwise compact sets of measurable functions. A number of problems, interesting in themselves and important for the…
