This paper establishes connections between the group-Fourier transform and the geometry of measures in the Heisenberg group. Firstly, it is shown that if the Fourier transform of a compactly supported, finite, Radon measure is square…

Let $\beta>1$. We define a class of similitudes \[S:=\left\{f_{i}(x)=\dfrac{x}{\beta^{n_i}}+a_i:n_i\in \mathbb{N}^{+}, a_i\in \mathbb{R}\right\}.\] Taking any finite similitudes $\{f_{i}(x)\}_{i=1}^{m} $ from $S$, it is well known that…

For a compact subset K of the plane and a point x, we define the visible part of K from x to be the set K_x={u\in K : [x,u]\cap K={u}}. (Here [x,u] denotes the closed line segment joining x to u.) In this paper, we use energies to show that…

A local Hausdorff dimension is defined on a metric space. We study its properties and use it to define a local Hausdorff measure. We show that in the case that in the local Hausdorff measure is finite we can recover the global Hausdorff…

We prove that for any $E\subset{\Bbb R}^2$, $\dim_{\mathcal{H}}(E)>1$, there exists $x\in E$ such that the Hausdorff dimension of the pinned distance set $$\Delta_x(E)=\{|x-y|: y \in E\}$$ is no less than…

Let $X=\bigcup\varphi_{i}X$ be a strongly separated self-affine set in $\mathbb{R}^2$ (or one satisfying the strong open set condition). Under mild non-compactness and irreducibility assumptions on the matrix parts of the $\varphi_{i}$, we…

We consider metrics on Euclidean domains $\Omega\subset\R^n$ that are induced by continuous densities $\rho\colon\Omega\rightarrow(0,\infty)$ and study the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of the boundary of $\Omega$ with respect to these…

This paper is partly an exposition, and partly an extension of our work [1] to the multiparameter case. We consider certain classes of parametrized dynamically defined measures. These are push-forwards, under the natural projection, of…

We investigate several aspects of the Assouad dimension and the lower dimension, which together form a natural `dimension pair'. In particular, we compute these dimensions for certain classes of self-affine sets and quasi-self-similar sets…

We prove the existence of similar and multi-similar point configurations (or simplexes) in sets of fractional Hausdorff measure in Euclidean space. These results can be viewed as variants, for thin sets, of theorems for sets of positive…

We study the set of irregular points for topologically mixing subshifts of finite type. It is well known that despite the irregular set having zero measure for every invariant measure, it has full topological entropy and full Hausdorff…

We introduce {\it (W')-specification} in terms of language decompositions of subshifts, and show that any recurrence set of a subshift with this property has full Hausdorff dimension. Our main result applies to a wide class of subshifts…

We study the iteration of functions in the exponential family. We construct a number of sets, consisting of points which escape to infinity `slowly', and which have Hausdorff dimension equal to 1. We prove these results by using the idea of…

We consider the question which compact metric spaces can be obtained as a Lipschitz image of the middle third Cantor set, or more generally, as a Lipschitz image of a subset of a given compact metric space. In the general case we prove that…

David maps are generalizations of classical planar quasiconformal maps for which the dilatation is allowed to tend to infinity in a controlled fashion. In this note we examine how these maps distort Hausdorff dimension. We show \vs…

We compute the Hausdorff dimension of the image X(E) of a non random Borel set E $\subset$ [0, 1], where X is a L\'evy multistable process in R. This extends the case where X is a classical stable L\'evy process by letting the stability…

We prove that a compact metric space (or more generally an analytic subset of a complete separable metric space) of Hausdorff dimension bigger than $k$ can be always mapped onto a $k$-dimensional cube by a Lipschitz map. We also show that…

Following in the footsteps of P. Erd\H{o}s and A. R\'enyi we compute the Hausdorff dimension of sets of numbers whose digits with respect to their $Q$-Cantor series expansions satisfy various statistical properties. In particular, we…

Let $T\colon\mathbb{T}^d\to \mathbb{T}^d$, defined by $T x=Ax(\bmod 1)$, where $A$ is a $d\times d$ integer matrix with eigenvalues $1<|\lambda_1|\le|\lambda_2|\le\dots\le|\lambda_d|$. We investigate the Hausdorff dimension of the…

The set of badly approximable $m \times n $ matrices is known to have Hausdorff dimension $mn $. Each such matrix comes with its own approximation constant $c$, and one can ask for the dimension of the set of badly approximable matrices…
