We construct a combinatorially large measure zero subset of the Cantor set.
In this note we provide a quasisymmetric taming of uniformly perfect and uniformly disconnected sets that generalizes a result of MacManus from 2 to higher dimensions. In particular, we show that a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ is…
Four constructions result from a desire to create enhancements to Cantor's infinite real set cardinality. Each continues to keep Cantor's cardinality formulation in place while providing new comparisons of arbitrary infinite sets. To…
We show that products of sufficiently thick Cantor sets generate trees in the plane with constant distance between adjacent vertices. Moreover, we prove that the set of choices for this distance has non-empty interior. We allow our trees to…
We provide in a unified way quantitative forms of strong convergence results for numerous iterative procedures which satisfy a general type of Fejer monotonicity where the convergence uses the compactness of the underlying set. These…
Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space, $f: X \to X$ be a continuous transformation with the almost weak specification property and $\varphi: X \to \mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function. We consider the set (called the irregular set for…
If $(X,d)$ is a metric space then the map $f\colon X\to X$ is defined to be a weak contraction if $d(f(x),f(y))<d(x,y)$ for all $x,y\in X$, $x\neq y$. We determine the simplest non-closed sets $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ in the sense of…
Let $K=2^\mathbb{N}$ be the Cantor set, let $\mathcal{M}$ be the set of all metrics $d$ on $K$ that give its usual (product) topology, and equip $\mathcal{M}$ with the topology of uniform convergence, where the metrics are regarded as…
We prove that if $V=L$ then there is a $\Pi^1_1$ maximal orthogonal (i.e. mutually singular) set of measures on Cantor space. This provides a natural counterpoint to the well-known Theorem of Preiss and Rataj that no analytic set of…
Some limit theorems of the type $\int_{\Omega}f_n dm_n -- --> \int_{\Omega}f dm$ are presented for scalar, (vector), (multi)-valued sequences of m_n-integrable functions f_n. The convergences obtained, in the vector and multivalued…
We study the relationship between the sigma-ideal generated by closed measure zero sets and the ideals of null and meager sets. We show that the additivity of the ideal of closed measure zero sets is not bigger than covering for category.…
We investigate some relations between number theory and spectral measures related to the harmonic analysis of a Cantor set. Specifically, we explore ways to determine when an odd natural number $m$ generates a complete or incomplete Fourier…
Given a sequence converging to zero, we consider the set of numbers which are sums of (infinite, finite, or empty) subsequences. When the original sequence is not absolutely summable, the subsum set is an unbounded closed interval which…
We consider equally-weighted Cantor measures $\mu_{q,b}$ arising from iterated function systems of the form ${b^{-1}(x+i)}$, $i=0,1,...,q-1$, where $q<b$. We classify the $(q,b)$ so that they have infinitely many mutually orthogonal…
By the Galvin-Mycielski-Solovay theorem, a subset $X$ of the line has Borel's strong measure zero if and only if $M+X\neq\mathbb{R}$ for each meager set $M$. A set $X\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ is meager-additive if $M+X$ is meager for each meager…
A pattern is called universal in another collection of sets, when every set in the collection contains some linear and translated copy of the original pattern. Paul Erd\H{o}s proposed a conjecture that no infinite set is universal in the…
We introduce a notion of weak convergence in arbitrary metric spaces. Metric functionals are key in our analysis: weak convergence of sequences in a given metric space is tested against all the metric functionals defined on said space. When…
We investigate the power of weak measurements in the framework of quantum state discrimination. First, we define and analyze the notion of weak consecutive measurements. Our main result is a convergence theorem whereby we demonstrate when…
A. Sannami constructed an example of the differentiable Cantor set embedded in the real line whose difference set has a positive measure. In this paper, we generalize the definition of the difference sets for sets of the two dimensional…
Following Darji, we say that a Borel subset $B$ of an abelian Polish group $G$ is Haar meager if there is a compact metric space $K$ and a continuous function $f : K \to G$ such that the preimage of the translate, $f^{-1}(B+g)$ is meager in…
