In this paper we survey some results on minimality of projections with respect to numerical radius. We note that in the cases $L^p$, $p=1,2,\infty$, there is no difference between the minimality of projections measured either with respect…
It is shown that if $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^3$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension $\dim A>1$, and if $\rho_{\theta}$ is orthogonal projection to the line spanned by $( \cos \theta, \sin \theta, 1 )$, then $\rho_{\theta}(A)$ has positive…
We show that if no $m$-plane contains almost all of an $m$-rectifiable set $E \subset \R^{n}$, then there exists a single $(m - 1)$-plane $V$ such that the radial projection of $E$ has positive $m$-dimensional measure from every point…
Let $\gamma: [-1, 1]\to \mathbb{R}^n$ be a smooth curve that is non-degenerate. Take $m\le n$ and a Borel set $E\subset [0, 1]^n$. We prove that the orthogonal projection of $E$ to the $m$-th order tangent space of $\gamma$ at $\theta\in…
We study projections onto non-degenerate one-dimensional families of lines and planes in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Using the classical potential theoretic approach of R. Kaufman, one can show that the Hausdorff dimension of at most…
A covering path for a finite set $P$ of points in the plane is a polygonal path such that every point of $P$ lies on a segment of the path. The vertices of the path need not be at points of $P$. A covering path is plane if its segments do…
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…
A Borel set $B \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ is visible from $x \in \mathbb{R}^{n}$, if the radial projection of $B$ with base point $x$ has positive $\mathcal{H}^{n - 1}$ measure. I prove that if $\dim B > n - 1$, then $B$ is visible from every…
We develop quantitative algorithmic information bounds for orthogonal projections and distances in the plane. Under mild independence conditions, the distance $|x-y|$ and a projection coordinate $p_e x$ each retain at least half the…
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…
This paper is concerned with restricted families of projections in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ be a Borel set with Hausdorff dimension $\dim K = s > 1$. If $\mathcal{G}$ is a smooth and sufficiently well-curved…
A point set $M$ in the Euclidean plane is called a planar integral point set if all the distances between the elements of $M$ are integers, and $M$ is not situated on a straight line. A planar integral point set is called to be in…
We prove that a purely unrectifiable self-similar set of finite 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure in the plane, satisfying the Open Set Condition, has radial projection of zero length from every point.
We study dimensions of sets projected to an $(n-2)$-dimensional family of hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ under curvature conditions. Let $n\ge 3$ and $\Sigma \subset S^{n-1}$ be an $(n-2)$-dimensional $C^2$ manifold such that $\Sigma$ has…
Consider the projections of a finite set $A\subset R^n$ onto the coordinate hyperplanes. How small can the sum of the sizes of these projections be, given the size of $A$? In a different form, this problem has been studied earlier in the…
We show that for any finite set $P$ of points in the plane and $\epsilon>0$ there exist $\displaystyle O\left(\frac{1}{\epsilon^{3/2+\gamma}}\right)$ points in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$, for arbitrary small $\gamma>0$, that pierce every convex set…
This paper contains the following $\delta$-discretised projection theorem for Ahlfors regular sets in the plane. For all $C,\epsilon > 0$ and $s \in [0,1]$, there exists $\kappa > 0$ such that the following holds for all $\delta > 0$ small…
The local theory of regular or multi-regular systems aims at finding sufficient local conditions for a Delone set $X$ to be a regular or multi-regular system. One of the main goals is to estimate the regularity radius $\hat{\rho}_d$ for…

Let E be a plane self-affine set defined by affine transformations with linear parts given by matrices with positive entries. We show that if mu is a Bernoulli measure on E with dim_H mu = dim_L mu, where dim_H and dim_L denote Hausdorff…
