We make progress on two interrelated problems at the intersection of geometric measure theory, additive combinatorics and harmonic analysis: the discretised sum-product problem, and the dimension of Furstenberg sets. Along the way, we…
In this paper we use the theory of computing to study fractal dimensions of projections in Euclidean spaces. A fundamental result in fractal geometry is Marstrand's projection theorem, which shows that for every analytic set E, for almost…
This article is a study guide for ``On the Hausdorff dimension of Furstenberg sets and orthogonal projections in the plane" by Orponen and Shmerkin. We begin by introducing Furstenberg set problem and exceptional set of projections and…
We define two notions of discrete dimension based on the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions in the continuous setting. After proving some basic results illustrating these definitions, we apply this machinery to the study of connections…
We survey the history and recent developments around two decades-old problems that continue to attract a great deal of interest: the slicing $\times 2$, $\times 3$ conjecture of H. Furstenberg in ergodic theory, and the distance set problem…
We survey recent (and not so recent) results concerning arrangements of lines, points and other geometric objects and the applications these results have in theoretical computer science and combinatorics. The three main types of problems we…
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…
The behavior of the Hausdorff dimension of a set when projected onto a subspace is a fundamental question in fractal geometry. In this paper, we settle a question of Fassler and Orponen concerning the dimension of a set when projected onto…
This paper contains new results on two classical topics in fractal geometry: projections, and intersections with affine planes. To keep the notation of the abstract simple, we restrict the discussion to the planar cases of our theorems. Our…
We apply the theory of Peres and Schlag to obtain estimates for generic Hausdorff dimension distortion under orthogonal projections on simply connected two dimensional Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature. As a conclusion we obtain…
We discuss a unified approach to a class of geometric combinatorics incidence problems in $2D$, of the Erd\"os distance type. The goal is obtaining the second moment estimate, that is given a finite point set $S$ and a function $f$ on…
The Wasserstein distance is a distance between two probability distributions and has recently gained increasing popularity in statistics and machine learning, owing to its attractive properties. One important approach to extending this…
We consider the problem of bounding the number of exceptional projections (projections which are smaller than typical) of a subset of a vector space over a finite field onto subspaces. We establish bounds that depend on $L^p$ estimates for…
We prove an incidence theorem for points and planes in the projective space $\mathbb P^3$ over any field $\mathbb F$, whose characteristic $p\neq 2.$ An incidence is viewed as an intersection along a line of a pair of two-planes from two…
Let $X$ be a $d$-dimensional random vector and $X_\theta$ its projection onto the span of a set of orthonormal vectors $\{\theta_1,...,\theta_k\}$. Conditions on the distribution of $X$ are given such that if $\theta$ is chosen according to…
We generalize a Furstenberg-type result of Orponen-Shmerkin to higher dimensions, leading to an $\epsilon$-improvement in Kaufman's projection theorem for hyperplanes and an unconditional discretized radial projection theorem in the spirit…
In this paper we study multi-parameter projection theorems for fractal sets. With the help of these estimates, we recover results about the size of $A \cdot A+...+A \cdot A$, where $A$ is a subset of the real line of a given Hausdorff…
We resolve a conjecture of F\"assler and Orponen on the dimension of exceptional projections to one-dimensional subspaces indexed by a space curve in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We do this by obtaining sharp $L^p$ bounds for a variant of the Wolff…
Motivated by recent results on radial projections and applications to the celebrated Falconer distance problem, we study radial projections in the setting of finite fields. More precisely, we extend results due to Mattila and Orponen…
Let $A$ and $B$ be sets in a finite vector space. In this paper, we study the magnitude of the set $A\cap f(B)$, where $f$ runs through a set of transformations. More precisely, we will focus on the cases that the set of transformations is…
