Abstract: We show that recent observations of fractal dimensions in the $mu$-space of $N$-body Hamiltonian systems with long-range interactions are due to finite $N$ and finite resolution effects. We provide strong numerical evidence that, in the continuum (Vlasov) limit, a set which initially is not a fractal (e.g. a line in 2D) remains such for all finite times. We perform this analysis for the Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model, which describes the motion of a system of $N$ fully coupled rotors. The analysis can be indirectly confirmed by studying the evolution of a large set of initial points for the Chirikov standard map.
