Abstract: It is shown that if gamma:[a,b]oS2 is C3 with det(gamma,gamma′,gamma″)eq0, and if AsubseteqmathbbR3 is a Borel set, then dimpiheta(A)geqminleft2,dimA,fracdimA2+frac34ight for a.e. hetain[a,b], where piheta denotes projection onto the orthogonal complement of gamma(heta) and ``dim refers to Hausdorff dimension. This partially resolves a conjecture of F"assler and Orponen in the range 1<dimAleq3/2, which was previously known only for non-great circles. For 3/2<dimA<5/2 this improves the known lower bound for this problem.


Summary: It is shown that if \(\gamma : [a, b] \to S^2\) is \(C^3\) with \(\det(\gamma, \gamma', \gamma) \neq 0\), and if \(A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^3\) is a Borel set, then \(\dim \pi_{\theta} (A) \geq \min \{2, \dim A, \dim A/2 + 3/4\}\) for a.e. \(\theta \in [a, b]\), where \(\pi_{\theta}\) denotes projection onto the orthogonal complement of \(\gamma(\theta)\) and ``dim refers to Hausdorff dimension. This partially resolves a conjecture of \textit{K. Fässler} and \textit{T. Orponen} [Proc. Lond. Math. Soc. (3) 109, No. 2, 353--381 (2014; Zbl 1302.28015)] in the range \(1 < \dim A \leq 3/2\), which was previously known only for non-great circles. For \(3/2 < \dim A < 5/2\), this improves the known lower bound for this problem.
