Abstract: We provide several new answers on the question: how do radial projections distort the dimension of planar sets? Let $X,Ysubsetmathbb{R}^2$ be non-empty Borel sets. If $X$ is not contained on any line, we prove that [ sup_{x in X} dim_{mathrm{H}} pi_{x}(Y) geq min{dim_{mathrm{H}} X,dim_{mathrm{H}} Y,1}. ] If $di{m}_{mathrmH}Y>1$, we have the following improved lower bound: [ sup_{x in X} dim_{mathrm{H}} pi_{x}(Y , setminus , {x}) geq min{dim_{mathrm{H}} X + dim_{mathrm{H}} Y - 1,1}. ] Our results solve conjectures of Lund-Thang-Huong, Liu, and the first author. Another corollary is the following continuum version of Beck's theorem in combinatorial geometry: if $Xsubsetmathbb{R}^2$ is a Borel set with the property that $di{m}_{mathrmH}(X,setminus,ell)=di{m}_{mathrmH}X$ for all lines $ellsubsetmathbb{R}^2$, then the line set spanned by $X$ has Hausdorff dimension at least $min2di{m}_{mathrmH}X,2$. While the results above concern $mathbb{R}^2$, we also derive some counterparts in $mathbb{R}^d$ by means of integralgeometric considerations. The proofs are based on an $epsilon$-improvement in the Furstenberg set problem, due to the two first authors, a bootstrapping scheme introduced by the second and third author, and a new planar incidence estimate due to Fu and Ren.
