Multifractal Analysis and Dimension Spectrum of Unions
Consider the classical Multifractal Analysis, and the decomposition of the state space $X$ into level sets
$$X=\bigcup_{\alpha}\left\{x\mid d_\mu(x)=\alpha\right\}\cup\left\{x\mid d_\mu(x) \,\mathrm{...

Calculate Hausdorff measure with Frostman measures
Fix a metrix space $(X,d)$ and consider the Hausdorff (outer) measures $\mathcal{H}^s$ on $X$.
A Frostman measure on $X$ is a finite Borel measure $\mu$ such that there exists $C,t,r_0>0$ with $\...

The relation between Hausdorff dimension of an $n$-manifold and $n$
It is known that for a topological space with different metrics, the Hausdorff dimensions may not be equal in general.
For the case of manifolds, suppose $M$ is a $n$-manifold with a metric(distance)...

Geometric measures different from 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 $A\subset \RR^n$...

Are there additive subgroups of reals of dimension 1 with no subgroups of dimension strictly between 0 and 1?
I will use $dimA$ to denote the Hausdorff dimension of a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$. Being a null set means having Lebesgue measure zero.
In the 1966 paper "Additive gruppen mit vorgegebener ...

Can Hausdorff dimension make sets into a Tropical Semiring?
If $X$ is a metric space, we construct Hausdorff $d$ measure from the outer measure
\begin{equation}
H^d(U) = \lim_{\delta \to 0}\inf\left\{\sum_{i=1}^\infty \left(\text{diam}(E_i)\right)^d : \...

Hausdorff measure of the zero set
Let $f : \mathbb R^n\to \mathbb R$ continuous, for which there exist $x,y\in\mathbb R^n$, such that $f(x)f(y)<0$.
Is it true that the Hausdorff dimension of the zero set of $f$ is at least $n-1$?

Are there any good techniques for calculating Hausdorff measure?
I'm aware that many techniques have been developed for the purpose of calculating Hausdorff dimension (although I'm fairly unfamiliar with them), but my question is whether or not we have any good ...

Hausdorff metric on C[0,1]
Let us consider $C[0,1]$, the space of continuous functions $f\colon [0,1] \to \mathbb{R}$. It comes usually with the metric of the maximum, or of the supremum, $d_{L^{\infty}}$. Each element $f$ in $...

Isometrically-invariant measures and dilation of the Cantor set
Let $C$ be the Cantor middle-thirds set. Let $\mu$ be a finitely-additive isometrically-invariant measure on all subsets of $\mathbb R$. Then $\mu(3C)=2\mu(C)$, where $aB = \{ ax : x \in B \}$. ...

Hausdorff dimension of Julia sets of quadratics not in the Mandelbrot set.
What are the bounds on the possible values of the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia sets of quadratics not in the Mandelbrot set? In particular, assume we have a quadratic $q_c: z \mapsto z^2 + c$ on ...

Simple definition of the Hausdorff measure using squared paper
I am giving a "non-technical" seminar in which I would like to give an elementary introduction to the Hausdorff dimension and measure.
For simplicity, I was hoping to give a more intuitive ...
