In this note we introduce the concept of local average dimension of a measure µ, at x∈ℝn as the unique exponent where the lower average density of µ, at x jumps from zero to infinity. Taking the essential infimum or supremum over x we obtain the lower and upper average dimensions of µ, respectively. The average dimension of an analytic set E is defined as the supremum over the upper average dimensions of all measures supported by E. These average dimensions lie between the corresponding Hausdorff and packing dimensions and the inequalities can be strict. We prove that the local Hausdorff dimensions and the local average dimensions of µ at almost all x are invariant under orthogonal projections onto almost all m- dimensional linear subspaces of higher dimension. The corresponding global results for µ and E (which are known for Hausdorff dimension) follow immediately.

For E a subset of ℝn and s ∈ [0, n] we define upper and lower box dimension profiles, B-dimsE and B-dimsE respectively, that are closely related to the box dimensions of the orthogonal projections of E onto subspaces of ℝn. In particular, the projection of E onto almost all m-dimensional subspaces has upper box dimension B-dimmE and lower box dimension B-dimmE. By defining a packing type measure with respect to s-dimensional kernels we are able to establish the connection to an analogous packing dimension theory.

The broad line wings in molecular cloud spectra are proposed to result from strong magnetic waves on the periphery of dense cores and in the intercore regions where the Alfvén velocity should be larger than average. The observed line profiles are reproduced by a simple but realistic model, and the ratio of the broad to the narrow line components is found to equal approximately three, independent of cloud parameters, as long as the core/intercore contrast in the local average density is sufficiently large. Interactions between the magnetic waves should produce dense clumps in the non-linear splash regions between converging flows.

We consider the Hénon attractor ℋ as a curve limit of continuous planar curves H(n), as n → ∞. We describe a set of tools for studying the Hausdorff dimension dim H of a certain family of such curves, and we adapt these tools to the particular case of the Hénon attractor, estimating its Hausdorff dimension dim H (ℋ) to be about 1.258, a number smaller than the usual estimates for the box-counting dimension of the attractor. We interpret this discrepancy.

AbstractWe show that if E is an analytic subset of ℝn thenfor almost all m–dimensional subspaces V of ℝn, where projvE is the orthogonal projection of E onto V and dimp denotes packing dimension. The same inequality holds for lower and upper box counting dimensions, and these inequalities are the best possible ones.

With the purpose of researching the changing regularities of the Cantor set’s multi-fractal spectrums and generalized fractal dimensions under different probability factors, from statistical physics, the Cantor set is given a mass distribution, when the mass is given with different probability ratios, the different multi-fractal spectrums and the generalized fractal dimensions will be acquired by computer calculation. The following conclusions can be acquired. On one hand, the maximal width of the multi-fractal spectrum and the maximal vertical height of the generalized fractal dimension will become more and more narrow with getting two probability factors closer and closer. On the other hand, when two probability factors are equal to 1/2, both the multi-fractal spectrum and the generalized fractal dimension focus on the value 0.6309, which is not the value of the physical multi-fractal spectrum and the generalized fractal dimension but the mathematical Hausdorff dimension.

The counting and (upper) mass dimensions of a set A ⊆ $\mathbb{R}^d$ are $$D(A) = \limsup_{\|C\| \to \infty} \frac{\log | \lfloor A \rfloor \cap C |}{\log \|C\|}, \quad \smash{\overline{D}}\vphantom{D}(A) = \limsup_{\ell \to \infty} \frac{\log | \lfloor A \rfloor \cap [-\ell,\ell)^d |}{\log (2 \ell)},$$ where ⌊A⌋ denotes the set of elements of A rounded down in each coordinate and where the limit supremum in the counting dimension is taken over cubes C ⊆ $\mathbb{R}^d$ with side length ‖C‖ → ∞. We give a characterization of the counting dimension via coverings: $$D(A) = \text{inf} \{ \alpha \geq 0 \mid {d_{H}^{\alpha}}(A) = 0 \},$$ where $${d_{H}^{\alpha}}(A) = \lim_{r \rightarrow 0} \limsup_{\|C\| \rightarrow \infty} \inf \biggl\{ \sum_i \biggl(\frac{\|C_i\|}{\|C\|} \biggr)^\alpha \ \bigg| \ 1 \leq \|C_i\| \leq r \|C\| \biggr\}$$ in which the infimum is taken over cubic coverings {Ci} of A ∩ C. Then we prove Marstrand-type theorems for both dimensions. For example, almost all images of A ⊆ $\mathbb{R}^d$ under orthogonal projections with range of dimension k have counting dimension at least min(k, D(A)); if we assume D(A) = D(A), then the mass dimension of A under the typical orthogonal projection is equal to min(k, D(A)). This work extends recent work of Y. Lima and C. G. Moreira.

Abstract We quantify the extent to which a supercritical Sobolev mapping can increase the dimension of subsets of its domain, in the setting of metric measure spaces supporting a Poincaré inequality. We show that the set of mappings that distort the dimensions of sets by the maximum possible amount is a prevalent subset of the relevant function space. For foliations of a metric space X defined by a David–Semmes regular mapping Π : X → W, we quantitatively estimate, in terms of Hausdorff dimension in W, the size of the set of leaves of the foliation that are mapped onto sets of higher dimension. We discuss key examples of such foliations, including foliations of the Heisenberg group by left and right cosets of horizontal subgroups.

AbstractTricot [27] provided apparently dual representations of the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of any analytic subset of Euclidean d-space in terms of, respectively, the lower and upper pointwise dimension maps of the finite Borel measures on ℝd. In this paper we show that Tricot's two representations, while similar in appearance, are in fact not duals of each other, but rather the duals of two other ‘missing’ representations. The key to obtaining these missing representations lies in extended Frostman and antiFrostman lemmas, both of which we develop in this paper. This leads to the formulation of two distinct characterizations of dim (A) and Dim (A), one which we call the weak duality principle and the other the strong duality principle. In particular, the strong duality principle is concerned with the existence, for each analytic set A, of measures on A that are (almost) of the same exact dimension (Hausdorff or packing) as A. The connection with Rényi (or information) dimension and a variational principle of Cutler and Olsen[12] is also established.

Let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be real numbers. The run-length function of [Formula: see text]-expansions denoted by [Formula: see text] is defined as the maximal length of consecutive zeros in the first [Formula: see text] digits of the [Formula: see text]-expansion of [Formula: see text]. It is known that for Lebesgue almost all [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] increases to infinity with the logarithmic speed [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text] goes to infinity. In this paper, we calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the subtle set for which [Formula: see text] grows to infinity with other speeds. More precisely, we prove that for any [Formula: see text], the set [Formula: see text] has full Hausdorff dimension, where [Formula: see text] is a strictly increasing function satisfying that [Formula: see text] is non-increasing, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text].
