Large sets of zero analytic capacity

From MaRDI portal





The authors consider a Cantor type set in the unit square and prove that it has zero analytic capacity but it does not have \(\sigma\)-finite one-dimensional Hausdorff measure. The first example of such a Cantor set was given by L. D. Ivanov [On sets of analytic capacity zero, in: Linear and Complex Analysis Problem Book 3, Part II (V.P. Khavin, S.V. Kruschev, N.K. Nikolskii, ed.), Lecture Notes Math. 1043, 498--501 (1984; Zbl 0545.30038)]. The proof in the paper under review is based on some estimates for harmonic measure and Green function due to P. W. Jones [Lecture Notes Math. 1384, 24--68 (1989; Zbl 0675.30029)] and a stopping-time argument. The result is related to a conjecture of P. Mattila [Publ. Math., Barc. 40, No. 1, 195--204 (1996; Zbl 0888.30026)] on the characterization of Cantor sets with zero analytic capacity.
