Measure of the Julia Set of the Feigenbaum map with infinite criticality

Abstract

We consider fixed points of the Feigenbaum (periodic-doubling) operator whose orders tend to infinity. It is known that the hyperbolic dimension of their Julia sets go to 2. We prove that the Lebesgue measure of these Julia sets tend to zero. An important part of the proof consists in applying martingale theory to a stochastic process with non-integrable increments.

From samples to shape: a finite approach to topological invariants

Given a metric space $Y$ and a compact subspace $X$, we present a method for constructing an inverse sequence of finite topological spaces by sampling points from neighborhoods of $X$ in $Y$. We show that these inverse sequences can be employed to define shape theory and to approximate shape invariants, such as Čech homology groups.

Baire 1 functions and the strong Choquet property

Let X be a Tychonoff space and B_1(X) be the space of real-valued Baire 1 functions. Using the classical Lebesgue's characterization of Baire 1 functions and the strong Choquet game we prove that if X is locally compact or a topological sum of sigma-compact spaces, the space B_1(X) equipped with the topology τ_UC of uniform convergence on compacta, is a strong Choquet space. For the Sorgenfrey line S, the space (B_1(S); τ_UC) is of the first Baire category in itself.

On disjoint tilings of $\ell_1(κ)$ by star-shaped bodies

We employ the set-theoretic methods yielding the consistency of the existence of nontrivial pairwise disjoint covers of the unit interval (or equivalently $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n\in\mathbb{N}\setminus\{0\}$) by less than $2^ω$ closed sets in the context of covers of infinite dimensional Banach spaces $\ell_1(κ)$ for infinite $κ$ under geometric conditions arising in tiling theory and in approximation theory. Specifically, for $κ=ω_1, ω_2$, using side-by-side Sacks forcing we prove the consistency of an arbitrarily large continuum above $κ$ with the existence of a highly disconnected proximinal set in $\ell_1(κ)$, built from norm-compact pieces separated by a common positive distance, and the existence of a normal disjoint tiling of $\ell_1(κ)$ by star-shaped bodies of the form $X+B$, where $X$ is norm compact and $B$ is the unit ball. We also prove that if $κ$ is an uncountable cardinal of countable cofinality, then $\ell_1(κ)$ does not admit any normal disjoint tiling by bodies of the form $X+B$, where $X$ is closed and norm-separable and $B$ is the unit ball. These results complement a result of Klee of 1981 obtained for $κ$ satisfying $κ^ω=κ$, recent results of De Bernardi, Russo, Sezgek and Somaglia, and a $\mathsf{ZFC}$ a machine-discovered result (included in the appendix) that there are no nontrivial discrete Chebyshev sets in $\ell_1(κ)$ when $κ<2^ω$.
