The Hausdorff dimension of a set can be detected using the Riesz energy. Here, we consider situations where a sequence of points, $\{x_n\}$, ``fills in'' a set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in an appropriate sense and investigate the degree to…

Let $A$ be a compact set in $\mathbb{R}$, and $E=A^d\subset \mathbb{R}^d$. We know from the Mattila-Sj\"olin's theorem if $\dim_H(A)>\frac{d+1}{2d}$, then the distance set $\Delta(E)$ has non-empty interior. In this paper, we show that the…

Given a compact set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^{d - 1}$, $d \geq 1$, write $K_{E} := [0,1] \times E \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$. A theorem of C. Bishop and J. Tyson states that any set of the form $K_{E}$ is minimal for conformal dimension: if…

We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\R^n\to\R^m, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal projections which guarantee that the Hausdorff dimension formula $\dim A\cap P_{\lambda}^{-1}\{u\}=s-m$ holds generically for measurable…

Let $\ell_1,\ell_2,\dots$ be a countable collection of lines in ${\mathbb R}^d$. For any $t \in [0,1]$ we construct a compact set $\Gamma\subset{\mathbb R}^d$ with Hausdorff dimension $d-1+t$ which projects injectively into each $\ell_i$,…

We prove that if $E \subset {\Bbb F}_q^d$, $d \ge 2$, $F \subset \operatorname{Graff}(d-1,d)$, the set of affine $d-1$-dimensional planes in ${\Bbb F}_q^d$, then $|\Delta(E,F)| \ge \frac{q}{2}$ if $|E||F|>q^{d+1}$, where $\Delta(E,F)$ the…

In this paper, we characterize the rectifiability (both uniform and not) of an Ahlfors regular set, E, of arbitrary co-dimension by the behavior of a regularized distance function in the complement of that set. In particular, we establish a…

We prove that for all $s\in(0,d)$ and $c\in (0,1)$ there exists a self-similar set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with Hausdorff dimension $s$ such that $\mathcal{H}^s(E)=c|E|^s$. This answers a question raised by Zhiying Wen[16].

We consider four related problems. (1) Obtaining dimension estimates for the set of exceptional vantage points for the pinned Falconer distance problem. (2) Nonlinear projection theorems, in the spirit of Kaufman, Bourgain, and Shmerkin.…

In this paper we obtain improved dimensional thresholds for dot product sets corresponding to compact subsets of a paraboloid. As a direct application of these estimates, we obtain significant improvements to the best known dimensional…

The connected part of a metric space $E$ is defined to be the union of non-trivial connected components of $E$. We proved that for a class of self-affine sets called slicing self-affine sponges, the connected part of $E$ either coincides…

We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set $\mathbf{x}\in [0,1)^d$, such that $$ \left|\sum_{n=1}^N \exp\left(2 \pi i\left(x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right) \right|\ge c N^{1/2} $$ holds for infinitely many natural numbers $N$, is at…

The Erd\H os unit distance conjecture in the plane says that the number of pairs of points from a point set of size $n$ separated by a fixed (Euclidean) distance is $\leq C_{\epsilon} n^{1+\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$. The best known…

We present a (combinatorial) algorithm with running time close to $O(n^d)$ for computing the minimum directed $L_\infty$ Hausdorff distance between two sets of $n$ points under translations in any constant dimension $d$. This substantially…

Let Q be an infinite set of positive integers. Denote by W_{\tau, n}(Q) (resp. W_{\tau, n}) the set of points in dimension n simultaneously \tau--approximable by infinitely many rationals with denominators in Q (resp. in N*). A non--trivial…

We prove that if ${\mathcal E} \subset {\Bbb R}^{2d}$, $d \ge 2$, is an Ahlfors-David regular product set of sufficiently large Hausdorff dimension, denoted by $dim_{{\mathcal H}}({\mathcal E})$, and $\phi$ is a sufficiently regular…

We investigate the Lebesgue measure, Hausdorff dimension, and Fourier dimension of sets of the form $RY + Z, $ where $R \subseteq (0,\infty)$ and $Y, Z \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$. We prove a theorem on the Lebesgue measure and Hausdorff…

Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a lattice in $G$, and let $U$ be a subset of $X$ whose complement is compact. We use the exponential mixing results for diagonalizable flows on $X$ to give upper estimates for the…

Let $b\geq3$ be an integer and $C(b,D)$ be the set of real numbers in $[0,1]$ whose $b$-ary expansion consists of digits restricted to a given set $D\subseteq\{0,\ldots,b-1\}$. Given an integer $t\geq2$ and a real, positive function $\psi$,…

Generalising a construction of Falconer, we consider classes of $G_\delta$-subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the property that sets belonging to the class have large Hausdorff dimension and the class is closed under countable intersections. We…
