Let $A\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ be Lebesgue-measurable and let $0<\alpha<1$ be its Hausdorff dimension. For a given $0<\beta <\alpha$ can we find a subset $B\subset A$ with Hausdorff ...

$\newcommand{\RR}{\mathbb{R}}\newcommand{\calF}{\mathcal{F}}\newcommand{\diam}{\mathrm{diam}}$ In geometric measure theory there are various notions of $m$-dimensional measure for sets $A\subset \RR^n$...

Let $M$ be a metric space. For any subset $A\subset M$ let $\dim(A)$ denote its Hausdorff dimension. For $x\in M$, define the dimension of $M$ at $x$ by $\dim(x)=\lim_{r\to0}\dim(B(x,r))$; this limit ...

Are there any famous examples of fractals, or other closed sets, of cardinality continuum but Hausdorff dimension 0? I can think of something ad hoc like a Cantor middle $\frac13$ set where the ...
