Continuous maps that preserve Hausdorff measure (Q2166428): Difference between revisions

The paper studies the set of continues maps that preserver the Hausdorff measure of a fractal set. Given a compact subset of the interval \([0,1] \) with Lebesgue measure zero the set of continues maps that preserves the Hausdorff measure of the set is dense (with respect to the supremum norm). This is especially true for a Cantor dust in \([0,1]\). The interesting result of the paper is that this can be generalized to Cantor dusts in in the square \([0,1]^2\) (and also Cantor dusts in cube \([0,1]^n)\). The result does not hold for Sierpiński carpets, Koch snowflakes and other fractals in \([0,1]^2\).
