Let $C$ be the middle-third Cantor set. Define $C*C=\{x*y:x,y\in C\}$, where $*=+,-,\cdot,\div$ (when $*=\div$, we assume $y\neq0$). Steinhaus \cite{HS} proved in 1917 that \[ C-C=[-1,1], C+C=[0,2]. \] In 2019, Athreya, Reznick and Tyson…

We investigate variants of the Erd\H{o}s similarity problem for Cantor sets. We prove that under a mild Hausdorff or packing logarithmic dimension assumption, Cantor sets are not full measure universal, significantly improving the known…

We show that for Gibbs measures on self-conformal sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d\ge2)$ satisfying certain minimal assumptions, without requiring any separation condition, the Hausdorff dimension of orthogonal projections to $k$-dimensional…

We study experimentally systems of orthogonal polynomials with respect to self-similar measures. When the support of the measure is a Cantor set, we observe some interesting properties of the polynomials, both on the Cantor set and in the…

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…

Recently, considerable attention has been given to the study of the arithmetic sum of two planar sets. We focus on understanding the interior $\left(A+\Gamma\right)^{\circ}$, when $\Gamma$ is a piecewise $\mathcal{C}^2$ curve and $A\subset…

We continue the analysis of random series associated to the multidimensional harmonic oscillator $-\Delta + |x|^2$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with d \geq 2$$. More precisely we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition to get the almost sure…

Suppose that $K$ and $ K'$ are two affine Cantor sets. It is shown that the sum set $K+K'$ has equal box and Hausdorff dimensions and in this number named $s$, $H^s(K+K')<\infty$. Moreover, for almost every pair $(K,K')$ satisfying…

We investigate how the Hausdorff dimension and measure of a self-similar set $K\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{d}$ behave under linear images. This depends on the nature of the group $\mathcal{T}$ generated by the orthogonal parts of the defining maps…

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…

We establish several optimal estimates for exceptional parameters in the projection of fractal measures: (1) For a parametric family of self-similar measures satisfying a transversality condition, the set of parameters leading to a…

In this survey article, we review some results and conjectures related to orthogonal polynomials on Cantor sets. The main purpose of this paper is to emphasize the role of equilibrium measures in order to have a general theory of…

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…

For any $0 < \alpha <1$, we construct Cantor sets on the parabola of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$ such that they are Salem sets and each associated measure $\nu$ satisfies the estimate $\|{\widehat{f d\nu}}\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)} \leq C_p…

We describe absolutely ordered $p$-normed spaces, for $1 \le p \le \infty$ which presents a model for "non-commutative" vector lattices and includes order theoretic orthogonality. To demonstrate its relevance, we introduce the notion of…
