We develop in detail the theory of c-projective geometry, a natural analogue of projective differential geometry adapted to complex manifolds. We realise it as a type of parabolic geometry and describe the associated Cartan or tractor…

Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…

In this paper we consider the relationship between the Assouad and box-counting dimension and how both behave under the operation of taking products. We introduce the notion of `equi-homogeneity' of a set, which requires a uniformity in the…

We describe a class of measurable subsets $\Omega$ in $\br^d$ such that $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthogonal basis of frequencies $e_\lambda(x)=e^{i2\pi\lambda\cdot x}(x\in\Omega)$ indexed by $\lambda\in\Lambda\subset\br^d$. We show that such…

Let $\gamma:[0,1]\rightarrow \mathbb{S}^{2}$ be a non-degenerate curve in $\mathbb{R}^3$, that is to say, $\det\big(\gamma(\theta),\gamma'(\theta),\gamma''(\theta)\big)\neq 0$. For each $\theta\in[0,1]$, let…

Let $C_a$ be the central Cantor set obtained by removing a central interval of length $1-2a$ from the unit interval, and continuing this process inductively on each of the remaining two intervals. We prove that if $\log b/\log a$ is…

We prove that there exists a C*-diagonal with Cantor spectrum in the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_k$ for $2 \le k < \infty$. Our method generalises to an uncountable family of UCT Kirchberg algebras with distinct K-theory. Moreover, we…

We study self-similar ultrametric Cantor sets arising from stationary Bratteli diagrams. We prove that such a Cantor set C is bi-Lipschitz embeddable in R^(d+1), where d denotes the integer part of its Hausdorff dimension. We compute this…

We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\R^n\to\R^m, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal projections which guarantee that the Hausdorff dimension formula $\dim A\cap P_{\lambda}^{-1}\{u\}=s-m$ holds generically for measurable…

Given a Cantor-type subset $\Omega$ of a smooth curve in $\mathbb R^{d+1}$, we construct examples of sets that contain unit line segments with directions from $\Omega$ and exhibit analytical features similar to those of classical Kakeya…

In this work we characterise the C*-algebras A generated by projections with the property that every pair of projections in A has positive angle, as certain extensions of abelian algebras by algebras of compact operators. We show that this…

Given $\lambda\in (0,1/2)$, let \begin{equation*} C_\lambda=\set{(1-\lambda)\sum_{i=1}^\infty d_i\lambda^{i-1}:d_i\in\set{0,1}} \end{equation*} be the middle Cantor sets with convex hull $[0, 1]$. We are interested in the set…

We prove that if $E$ is a planar self-similar set with similarity dimension $d$ whose defining maps generate a dense set of rotations, then the $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the orthogonal projection of $E$ onto any line is zero. We…

Let $(G, \Lambda)$ be a self-similar $k$-graph with a possibly infinite vertex set $\Lambda^0$. We associate a universal C*-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$ to $(G,\Lambda)$. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the ideal…

We study Schr\"odinger operators on $\R$ with measures as potentials. Choosing a suitable subset of measures we can work with a dynamical system consisting of measures. We then relate properties of this dynamical system with spectral…

We prove the following: Let $A$ be a C$^{\ast}$-algebra. Then for $a, b \in A^+ \setminus\{ 0 \}$, we have $a b = 0$ if and only is $\Vert \Vert c \Vert^{-1} c + \Vert d \Vert^{-1} d \Vert = 1$ whenever $0 < c \le a$ and $0 < d \le b$ in…

By using a multiscale analysis, we establish quantitative versions of the Besicovitch projection theorem (almost every projection of a purely unrectifiable set in the plane of finite length has measure zero) and a standard companion result,…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the left projectivity and biprojectivity of Banach algebras defined by locally trivial continuous fields of Banach algebras. We identify projective $C^*$-algebras $\A$ defined by locally…

Let C be a Cantor set. For a real number t let C+t be the translate of C by t, We say two real numbers s,t are equivalent if the intersection of C and C+s is a translate of the intersection of C and C+t. We consider a class of Cantor sets…
