Abstract

We generalize the recent results on radial projections by Orponen, Shmerkin, Wang using two different methods. In particular, we show that given X,YRnX,Y\subset \mathbb{R}^n Borel sets and XX\neq \emptyset. If dimY(k,k+1]\dim Y \in (k,k+1] for some k{1,,n1}k\in \{1,\dots, n-1\}, then supxXdimπx(Y{x})min{dimX+dimYk,k}. \sup_{x\in X} \dim \pi_x(Y\setminus \{x\}) \geq \min \{\dim X + \dim Y - k, k\}. Our results give a new approach to solving a conjecture of Lund-Pham-Thu in all dimensions and for all ranges of dimY\dim Y. The first of our two methods for proving the above theorem is shorter, utilizing a result of the first author and Gan. Our second method, though longer, follows the original methodology of Orponen--Shmerkin--Wang, and requires a higher dimensional incidence estimate and a dual Furstenberg-set estimate for lines. These new estimates may be of independent interest.
