Comparing the Hausdorff and packing measures of sets of small dimension in metric spaces (Q651412): Difference between revisions

The author gives a new estimate for the ratio of \(s\)-dimensional Hausdorff measure \({\mathcal H}^s\) and (radius-based) packing measure \({\mathcal P}^s\) of a set in any metric space. The estimate is that the infimum of the ratio \(c(s,X)\) satisfies \(c(s,X) \geq 1+(2-\frac{3}{2^{1/s}})^s\), where \(0<s<1/2\) and the infimum is taken over all metric space \(X\) and sets \(E \subset X\) with \(0<{\mathcal H}^s (E) <\infty\). As an immediate consequence, the author improves the upper bound for the lower \(s\)-density of such sets in \({\mathbb R}^n\).
