Let $\{S_i\}_{i=1}^\ell$ be an iterated function system (IFS) on $\R^d$ with attractor $K$. Let $(\Sigma,\sigma)$ denote the one-sided full shift over the alphabet $\{1,..., \ell\}$. We define the projection entropy function $h_\pi$ on the…
In a previous paper, dealing with "Applications in $\mathbb{R}^1$," the authors developed a new approach to the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of an iterated function system or IFS and studied some applications…
Let $\{x\_n\}\_{n\geq 0}$ be a sequence of $[0,1]^d$, $\{\lambda\_n\} \_{n\geq 0}$ a sequence of positive real numbers converging to 0, and $\delta>1$. Let $\mu$ be a positive Borel measure on $[0,1]^d$, $\rho\in (0,1]$ and $\alpha>0$.…
We prove a new Elekes-Szab\'o type estimate on the size of the intersection of a Cartesian product $A\times B\times C$ with an algebraic surface $\{f=0\}$ over the reals. In particular, if $A,B,C$ are sets of $N$ real numbers and $f$ is a…
We establish a uniform Hausdorff dimension result for the inverse image sets of real-valued strictly $\alpha$-stable L\'evy processes with $1< \alpha\le 2$. This extends a theorem of Kaufman for Brownian motion. Our method is different from…
If $E \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ is a compact set of Hausdorff dimension greater than $5/4$, we prove that there is a point $x \in E$ so that the set of distances $\{ |x-y| \}_{y \in E}$ has positive Lebesgue measure.
A celebrated result due to Wolff says if $E$ is a compact subset of ${\Bbb R}^2$, then the Lebesgue measure of the distance set $\Delta(E)=\{|x-y|: x,y \in E \}$ is positive if the Hausdorff dimension of $E$ is greater than $\frac{4}{3}$.…
Given a finite set $\mathcal{A} \subseteq \mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ we study the dimension of the attractor $K_\mathcal{A}$ of the iterated function system induced by the projective action of $\mathcal{A}$. In particular, we generalise a…
We prove that for any $\eta$ that belongs to the closure of the interior of the Markov and Lagrange spectra, the sets $k^{-1}((-\infty,\eta])$ and $k^{-1}(\eta)$, which are the sets of irrational numbers with best constant of Diophantine…
Let $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ be a union of line segments and $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ the set obtained from $E$ by extending each line segment in $E$ to a full line. Keleti's line segment extension conjecture posits that the Hausdorff…
We develop a new approach to the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of an iterated function system or IFS. In the one dimensional case that we consider here, our methods require only $C^3$ regularity of the maps in…
In this article we aim to investigate the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points $x \in [0,1)$ such that for any $r\in\mathbb{N},$ \begin{align*} a_{n+1}(x)a_{n+2}(x)\cdots a_{n+r}(x)\geq e^{\tau(x)(h(x)+\cdots+h(T^{n-1}(x)))} {align*}…
In this article, we study two problems concerning the size of the set of finite point configurations generated by a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$. The first problem concerns how the Lebesgue measure or the Hausdorff dimension of the…
We prove that for any $1 \le k<n$ and $s\le 1$, the union of any nonempty $s$-Hausdorff dimensional family of $k$-dimensional affine subspaces of ${\mathbb R}^n$ has Hausdorff dimension $k+s$. More generally, we show that for any $0 <…
In \cite{B} Bourgain proves that Sarnak's disjointness conjecture holds for a certain class of Three-interval exchange maps. In the present paper we slightly improve the Diophantine condition of Bourgain and estimate the constants in the…
Let $T_1,\ldots, T_m$ be a family of $d\times d$ invertible real matrices with $\|T_i\|<1/2$ for $1\leq i\leq m$. For ${\bf a}=(a_1,\ldots, a_m)\in \Bbb R^{md}$, let $\pi^{{\bf a}}:\; \Sigma=\{1,\ldots, m\}^{\Bbb N}\to \Bbb R^d$ denote the…
Let $1 \leq k \leq d$ and consider a subset $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$. In this paper, we study the problem of how large the Hausdorff dimension of $E$ must be in order for the set of distinct noncongruent $k$-simplices in $E$ (that is,…
We present strong versions of Marstrand's projection theorems and other related theorems. For example, if E is a plane set of positive and finite s-dimensional Hausdorff measure, there is a set X of directions of Lebesgue measure 0, such…
We investigate the Hausdorff dimension of level sets defined by digit growth rates in $\theta$-expansions, a generalization of regular continued fractions. For any $\alpha \geq 0$, we prove that the set \[ E_\theta(\alpha) = \left\{ x \in…
