On the packing dimension and category of exceptional sets of orthogonal projections (Q2350651)

Let \(K\subset {\mathbb R}^2\), \(e\in S^{1}:=\{\xi\in {\mathbb R}^{2}: |\xi|=1\}\), and \(K_{e}=\{x\cdot e: x\in K\}\) be the projection of \(K\) in direction \(e\). The author explores relations between the Hausdorff dimension \(\dim\) and packing dimensions \(\dim_p\) of various sets connected with the projection. In particular, there are proved inequalities \[ \dim_{p}\{e\in S^{1}: \dim_{p}K_{e}\leq\sigma\}\leq\frac{\sigma\gamma}{\gamma+\sigma(\gamma-1)}, \quad 0\leq\sigma\leq\gamma, \] for analytic set \(K\) with Hausdorff dimension \(\gamma\in (0,1]\), and \[ \dim_{p}\{e\in S^{1}: \dim_{p}K_{e}\leq\sigma\}\leq\sigma, \quad 0\leq\sigma\leq \dim\, K, \] for self-similar set \(K\).
