This paper studies polar sets of anisotropic Gaussian random fields, i.e. sets which a Gaussian random field does not hit almost surely. The main assumptions are that the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix are bounded from below and that…

We study the Hausdorff dimension of self-similar sets and measures on the line. We show that if the dimension is smaller than the minimum of 1 and the similarity dimension, then at small scales there are super-exponentially close cylinders.…

We obtain positive lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of sets of real numbers given by expressions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{a_n b_n}$, where $b_n$ satisfies some growth condition and $a_n$ lies in some set, possibly…

Motivated by the random covering problem and the study of Dirichlet uniform approximable numbers, we investigate the uniform random covering problem. Precisely, consider an i.i.d. sequence $\omega=(\omega_n)_{n\geq 1}$ uniformly distributed…

We prove two conjectures in this paper. The first conjecture is by Lund, Pham and Thu: Given a Borel set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\dim A\in (k,k+1]$ for some $k\in\{1,\dots,n-1\}$. For $0<s<k$, we have \[ \text{dim}(\{y\in…
