Percolation dimension of fractals (Q1263690): Difference between revisions

Let A be a subset of the plane. Denote !dim A\(=\alpha\) if for any open set U either \(U\cap A=\emptyset\) or the Hausdorff dimension \(U\cap A\) is \(\alpha\). Write \(b-\dim A=\beta\) if \(!\dim (\partial F)=\beta\) for every connected component F of \({\mathbb{R}}^ 2\setminus A.\) Denote \(p-\dim A=\gamma\) (the percolation dimension) if for any \(x,y\in A,\) \(x\neq y,\) the infimum of the Hausdorff dimension of all connected subsets of A containing x and y equals \(\gamma\). Trivially, if all these concepts exist, \(1\leq p-\dim A\leq b-\dim A\leq !\dim A\leq 2.\) Conversely, the author proves that given \(1\leq \gamma \leq \beta \leq \alpha \leq 2\) there exists a compact, connected, and locally connected set \(F\subset {\mathbb{R}}^ 2\) such that \(!\dim F=\alpha,\) \(b-\dim F=\beta,\) and \(p-\dim F=\gamma.\)
