Work in the measure algebra of the Lebesgue measure on the Cantor space: for comeager many $[A]$ the set of points $x$ such that the density of $x $ at $A$ is not defined is $\Sigma^{0}_{3}$-complete; for some compact $K$ the set of points…

Given $b > 1$ and $y \in \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$, we consider the set of $x\in \mathbb{R}$ such that $y$ is not a limit point of the sequence $\{b^n x \bmod 1: n\in\mathbb{N}\}$. Such sets are known to have full Hausdorff dimension, and in…

Suppose $D$ is a suitably admissible compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^k$ having a smooth boundary with possible zones of zero curvature. Let \mbox{$R(T,\theta,x)= N(T,\theta,x) - T^{k}\mathrm{vol}(D)$,} where $N(T,\theta,x)$ is the number of…

We give new arguments for sums and products of sufficient numbers of arbitrary central Cantor sets to produce large open intervals. We further discuss the same question for $C^1$ images of such central Cantor sets. This gives another…

We show how Lasry-Lions's result on regularization of functions defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$ or on Hilbert spaces by sup-inf convolutions with squares of distances can be extended to (finite or infinite dimensional) Riemannian manifolds $M$ of…

The classical Cantor's intersection theorem states that in a complete metric space $X$, intersection of every decreasing sequence of nonempty closed bounded subsets, with diameter approaches zero, has exactly one point. In this article, we…

We prove that it is consistent with ZFC that for every non-decreasing function $f:[0,1]\to [0,1]$, each subset of $[0,1]$ of cardinality $\mathfrak c$ contains a set of cardinality $\mathfrak c$ on which $f$ is uniformly continuous. We show…

In this note, we continue to highlight some applications of Theorem 1 of [3]. Here is a sample: Let $X$ be an open set in ${\bf C}^n$, $\Omega$ an open convex set in ${\bf C}$ and $f, g : X\to {\bf C}$ two holomorphic functions such that…

We investigate $(0,1)$-matrices that are {\em convex}, which means that the ones are consecutive in every row and column. These matrices occur in discrete tomography. The notion of ranked essential sets, known for permutation matrices, is…

We provide a comprehensive development of the basics of descriptive set theory for non-separable complete metric spaces whose weight is a singular cardinal $\lambda$ of countable confinality. Somewhat unexpectedly, the resulting theory is…

Let $n, m\ge 2$. Let $\Gamma<\text{SO}^\circ(n+1,1)$ be a Zariski dense convex cocompact subgroup and $\Lambda\subset\mathbb{S}^n$ be its limit set. Let $\rho : \Gamma \to \text{SO}^\circ(m+1,1)$ be a Zariski dense convex cocompact faithful…

In 1994, John Cobb asked: given $N>m>k>0$, does there exist a Cantor set in $\mathbb R^N$ such that each of its projections into $m$-planes is exactly $k$-dimensional? Such sets were described for $(N,m,k)=(2,1,1)$ by L.Antoine (1924) and…

High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to the sphere and the hyperbolic…

To any compact $K\subset\hat{\mathbb{C}}$ we associate a map $\lambda_K: \hat{\mathbb{C}}\rightarrow\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\}$ -- the lambda function of $K$ -- such that a planar continuum $K$ is locally connected if and only if…

Let $C\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ be a convex body. We introduce two notions of convexity associated to C. A set $K$ is $C$-ball convex if it is the intersection of translates of $C$, or it is either $\emptyset$, or ${\mathbb R}^n$. The $C$-ball…

A subset X of the Cantor space, 2^\omega, is a lambda-prime-set iff for every countable subset Y of the Cantor space Y is relatively G-delta in X union Y. In this paper we prove two forcing results about lambda-prime-sets. First we show…

Let $\mathcal C$ be the Cantor set. For each $n\geqslant 3$ we construct an embedding $A: \mathcal C \times \mathcal C \to \mathbb R^n$ such that $A(\mathcal C \times \{s\})$, for $s\in\mathcal C$, are pairwise ambiently incomparable…

We define a class of random measures, spatially independent martingales, which we view as a natural generalisation of the canonical random discrete set, and which includes as special cases many variants of fractal percolation and Poissonian…

Let $A(K)$ be the algebra of continuous functions on a compact set $K\subset\mathbb C$ which are analytic on the interior of $K$, and $R(K)$ the closure (with the uniform convergence on $K$) of the functions that are analytic on a…
