Let f: A → ℝn be Hölder continuous with exponent α, 0 < α ≼ 1, where A ⊂ ℝm has finite m-dimensional Lebesgue measure. Then, as is easy to see and well-known, the s-dimensional Hausdorif measure HS(fA) is finite for s = m/α. Many fractal-type sets fA also have positive Hs measure. This is so for example if m = 1 and f is a natural parametrization of the Koch snow flake curve in ℝ2. Then s = log 4/log 3 and α = log 3/log 4. In this paper we study the question of what s-dimensional sets in can intersect some image fA in a set of positive Hs measure where A ⊂ ℝm and f: A → ℝn is (m/s)-Hölder continuous. In Theorem 3·3 we give a general density result for such Holder surfacesfA which implies for example that Hs(E fA) = 0 for any totally disconnected self-similar set. E in this situation. In Theorem 32 we shall first show that such fA has positive s-dimensional lower density H8 almost everywhere.

Following the question of Smítal and Štefánková we show that there exist continuous maps of [0,1]n, n=2,3,… possessing an ω-scrambled set of the full n-dimensional Lebesgue measure.

Let H(μ, θ) be the hyperplane in Rn (n ≥ 2) that is perpendicular to the unit vector 6 and perpendicular distance μ from the origin; that is, H(μ, θ) = (x ∈ Rn: x. θ = μ). (Note that H(μ, θ) and H(−μ, −θ) are the same hyperplanes.) Let X be a proper compact convex subset of Rm. If f(x) ∈ L1(X) we will denote by F(μ, θ) the projection of f perpendicular to θ; that is, the integral of f(x) over H(μ, θ) with respect to (n − 1)-dimensional Lebesgue measure. By Fubini's Theorem, if f(x) ∈ L1(X), F(μ, θ) exists for almost all μ for every θ. Our aim in this paper is, given a finite collection of unit vectors θ1, …, θN, to characterize the F(μ, θi) that are the projections of some function f(x) with support in X for 1 ≤ i ≤ N.

Let [Formula: see text] be the class of Moran sets with integer [Formula: see text] and real [Formula: see text] satisfying [Formula: see text]. It is well known that the Hausdorff dimension of any set in this class is [Formula: see text]. We show that for any [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] denotes [Formula: see text]-dimensional Hausdorff measure of [Formula: see text]. For any [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] there exists a self-similar set [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text].

Abstract For $n\geq 3$ , let $Q_n\subset \mathbb {C}$ be an arbitrary regular n-sided polygon. We prove that the Cauchy transform $F_{Q_n}$ of the normalised two-dimensional Lebesgue measure on $Q_n$ is univalent and starlike but not convex in $\widehat {\mathbb {C}}\setminus Q_n$ .

For any real function h(t) which is continuous and monotonic increasing for t > 0 with , Hausdorff (10) in 1918 denned a Carathéodory measure with respect to h(t) which has subsequently been known as Hausdorff measure. For analysing sets in Euclidean space, these measures have proved both useful and interesting. Given a real function Φ(t) which is continuous and monotonic decreasing for t > 0 with , Frostman(9) in 1935 denned capacity with respect to Φ(t). Lebesgue measure in Euclidean k-space is a special case of Hausdorff measure, and capacity with respect to Φ(t) becomes logarithmic capacity or Newtonian capacity in the cases , Φ(t)=1/t, respectively. The interrelationship between h-measure and Φ-capacity has been of interest in both directions: (i) in applications to function theory one may be able to determine whether or not a set has positive capacity by examining the h-measure for suitable h(t) (see, for example, (5)); (ii) it may be possible to determine the measure properties of a set from knowledge of its capacity (see, for example, (7) and (17)).

Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}\in (1,2)$ be a real number. For a function $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9}:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$, define $W_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9})$ to be the set of $x\in \mathbb{R}$ such that for infinitely many $n\in \mathbb{N},$ there exists a sequence $(\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}_{i})_{i=1}^{n}\in \{0,1\}^{n}$ satisfying $0\leq x-\sum _{i=1}^{n}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}_{i}/\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}^{i})\leq \unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9}(n)$. In Baker [Approximation properties of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}$-expansions. Acta Arith. 168 (2015), 269–287], the author conjectured that for Lebesgue almost every $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}\in (1,2)$, the condition $\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }2^{n}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9}(n)=\infty$ implies that $W_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9})$ is of full Lebesgue measure within $[0,1/(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}-1)]$. In this paper we make a significant step towards proving this conjecture. We prove that given a sequence of positive real numbers $(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty }$ satisfying $\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{n}=\infty$, for Lebesgue almost every $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}\in (1.497,\ldots ,2)$, the set $W_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{n}\cdot 2^{-n})$ is of full Lebesgue measure within $[0,1/(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}-1)]$. We also study the case where $\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }2^{n}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9}(n)<\infty$ in which the set $W_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9})$ has Lebesgue measure zero. Applying the mass transference principle developed by Beresnevich and Velani in [A mass transference principle and the Duffin–Schaeffer conjecture for Hausdorff measures. Ann. of Math. (2) 164(3) (2006), 971–992], we obtain some results on the Hausdorff dimension and the Hausdorff measure of $W_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F9})$.

AbstractIn this paper we shall give examples of rational maps on the Riemann sphere and also of polynomial interval maps which are transitive but not ergodic with respect to Lebesgue measure. In fact, these maps have two disjoint compact attractors whose attractive basins are ‘intermingled’, each having a positive Lebesgue measure in every open set. In addition, we show that there exists a real bimodal polynomial with Fibonacci dynamics (of the type considered by Branner and Hubbard), whose Julia set is totally disconnected and has positive Lebesgue measure. Finally, we show that there exists a rational map associated to the Newton iteration scheme corresponding to a polynomial whose Julia set has positive Lebesgue measure.

We consider bounded sets in a plane. If X is such a set, we denote by Pθ(X) the projection of X on the line y = x tan θ, where x and y belong to some fixed coordinate system. By f(θ, X) we denote the measure of Pθ(X), taking this, in general, as an outer Lebesgue measure. The least upper bound of f (θ, X) for all θ we denote by M. We write sm X for the outer two-dimensional Lebesgue measure of X. Then G. Szekeres(1) has proved that if X consists of a finite number of continua,Béla v. Sz. Nagy(2) has obtained a stronger inequality, and it is the purpose of this paper to show that these results hold for more general classes of sets.
