We show that, for every set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional unit cube, there is an empty axis-parallel box of volume at least $\Omega(d/n)$ as $n\to\infty$ and $d$ is fixed. In the opposite direction, we give a construction without an…

This paper is concerned with orthonormal systems in real intervals, given with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. More specifically, our interest is in systems with a skew-symmetric differentiation matrix (this excludes orthonormal…

We prove a reduction theorem for capacity of positive maps of finite dimensional C*-algebras, thus reducing the computation of capacity to the case when the image of a nonscalar projection is never a projection.

We generalize the Li-Yang notion of self-similar $k$-graph $(G,\Lambda)$ and its $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$ to any finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We then introduce an inverse semigroup model for $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$…

This paper is an erratum to our paper, entitled "On an application of Guth-Katz theorem", Math. Res. Lett. 18 (2011), no. 4, 691-697. Let $F$ be the real or complex field and $\omega$ a non-degenerate skew-symmetric bilinear form in the…

Let $C$ be the attractor of the IFS $\{f_{d}(z) = (-n+i)^{-1}(z+d): d\in D\}$, $D\subset\{0, 1, \ldots, n^{2}\}$ and let $\dim$ denote the box-counting dimension. It is known that for all $\lambda\in[0, 1]$, that the set of complex numbers…

Can we find a self-similar set on the line with positive Lebesgue measure and empty interior? Currently, we do not have the answer for this question for deterministic self-similar sets. In this paper we answer this question negatively for…

Let $s\in (0,1)$, and let $F\subset \mathbb{R}$ be a self similar set such that $0 < \dim_H F \leq s$ . We prove that there exists $\delta= \delta(s) >0$ such that if $F$ admits an affine embedding into a homogeneous self similar set $E$…

We prove that it is relatively consistent with ZFC that in any perfect Polish space, for every nonmeager set A there exists a nowhere dense Cantor set C such that A intersect C is nonmeager in C. We also examine variants of this result and…

The classical Besicovitch-Federer projection theorem implies that the d-dimensional Hausdorff measure of a set in Euclidean space with non-negligible d-unrectifiable part will strictly decrease under orthogonal projection onto almost every…

For $x\in (0,1)$, let $\langle d_1(x),d_2(x),d_3(x),\cdots \rangle$ be the Engel series expansion of $x$. Denote by $\lambda(x)$ the exponent of convergence of the sequence $\{d_n(x)\}$, namely \begin{equation*} \lambda(x)= \inf\left\{s…

We generalize Bourgain's discretized projection theorem to higher rank situations. Like Bourgain's theorem, our result yields an estimate for the Hausdorff dimension of the exceptional sets in projection theorems formulated in terms of…

For $\lambda>0$, let $E_{\lambda}$ be the self-similar set generated by the iterated function system (IFS) $\left \{ \frac{x}{3}, \frac{x+\lambda}{3} \right \}$. In this paper we study the structure of parameters $\lambda$ in which…

For $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$, we study the bi-continuity of the canonical embedding of $A^{**}\ot_{\gamma} B^{**}$ ($A^{**}\hat{\ot} B^{**}$) into $(A \ot_{\gamma} B)^{**}$ (resp. $(A \hat{\ot} B)^{**}$), and its isomorphism. Ideal…

The main aim of the paper is to introduce a new class of (semigroup-valued) measures that are ultrahomogeneous on the Boolean algebra of all clopen subsets of the Cantor space and to study their automorphism groups. A characterisation, in…

We introduce and analyze a natural geometric version of Renegar's condition number R for the homogeneous convex feasibility problem associated with a regular cone C subseteq R^n. Let Gr_{n,m} denote the Grassmann manifold of m-dimensional…

We study homeomorphisms of a Cantor set with $k$ ($k < +\infty$) minimal invariant closed (but not open) subsets; we also study crossed product C*-algebras associated to these Cantor systems and their certain orbit-cut sub-C*-algebras. In…

It is shown that if $$ \sum_{n=1}^{N}n\left|c_{n}\right|=O(N), $$ then Lebesgue summability, $(\mathrm{C},\beta)$ summability ($\beta>0$), Abel summability, Riemann summability, and $(\gamma,\kappa)$ summability ($\kappa\geq 1$) of the…

We investigate C-sets in almost zero-dimensional spaces, showing that closed $\sigma$C-sets are C-sets. As corollaries, we prove that every rim-$\sigma$-compact almost zero-dimensional space is zero-dimensional and that each cohesive almost…

We provide a sufficient condition for a finite number of closed subspaces of a Hilbert space to be linearly independent and their sum to be closed. Under this condition a formula for the orthogonal projection onto the sum is given. We also…
