Abstract: This paper is concerned with restricted families of projections in mathbbR3. Let KsubsetmathbbR3 be a Borel set with Hausdorff dimension dimK=s>1. If mathcalG is a smooth and sufficiently well-curved one-dimensional family of two-dimensional subspaces, the main result states that there exists sigma(s)>1 such that dimpiV(K)geqsigma(s) for almost all VinmathcalG. A similar result is obtained for some specific families of one-dimensional subspaces.


Orponen's paper continues a research inspired by the following question:``Are there Marstrand-Mattila type projection theorems for restricted families of projections in \(\mathbb{R}^d\)?. He specifically focuses on such families in \(\mathbb{R}^3\). He first proves some geometric lemmas, among which are the two cones and the three cones lemma. The main theorem states: ``If \(\mathcal{G}\) is a smooth and sufficiently well-curved one-dimensional family of two-dimensional subspaces and \(K\subset\mathbb{R}^3\) is an analytic set with Hausdorff dimension \(\dim K=s>1\), there exists a constant \(\sigma(s)>1\) such that \(\dim\pi_V(K)\geq\sigma(s)\) for almost all \(V\in\mathcal{G}\). The result regarding projections onto lines is analogous to this. However, the latter is only concerned with the specific family arising from the curve \(\gamma(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\cos\theta,\sin\theta,1)\), where \(\theta\in(0,2\pi)\).
