On the Fourier dimension of (d, k)-sets and Kakeya sets with restricted directions

Abstract: A

(d, k)

-set is a subset of

m a t h b b R^{d}

containing a

k

-dimensional unit ball of all possible orientations. Using an approach of D.~Oberlin we prove various Fourier dimension estimates for compact

(d, k)

-sets. Our main interest is in restricted

(d, k)

-sets, where the set only contains unit balls with a restricted set of possible orientations

G a m m a

. In this setting our estimates depend on the Hausdorff dimension of

G a m m a

and can sometimes be improved if additional geometric properties of

G a m m a

are assumed. We are led to consider cones and prove that the cone in

m a t h b b R^{d + 1}

has Fourier dimension

d - 1

, which may be of interest in its own right.
