Abstract

Dimensions of level sets of generic continuous functions and generic H\"older functions defined on a fractal $F$ encode information about the geometry, ``the thickness" of $F$. While in the continuous case this quantity is related to a reasonably tame dimension notion which is called the topological Hausdorff dimension of $F$, the H\"older case seems to be highly nontrivial. A number of earlier papers attempted to deal with this problem, carrying out investigation in the case of Hausdorff dimension and box dimension. In this paper we continue our study of the Hausdorff dimension of almost every level set of generic $1$-H\"older-$ {\alpha}$ functions, denoted by $D_{*}( {\alpha}, F)$. We substantially improve previous lower and upper bounds on $D_{*}( {\alpha}, \Delta)$, where $\Delta$ is the Sierpi\'nski triangle, achieving asymptotically equal bounds as $\alpha\to 0+$. Using a similar argument, we also give an even stronger lower bound on the generic lower box dimension of level sets. Finally, we construct a connected fractal $F$ on which there is a phase transition of $D_{*}( {\alpha}, F)$, thus providing the first example exhibiting this behavior.

On the log-concavity of the composite Bessel function $x^{\alpha}J_{\nu }\left( \beta x^{\gamma}\right) $

For a twice differentiable function $f:\left( a,b\right) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ define $v\left( f\right) =f^{\prime}f^{\prime}-f^{\prime\prime }f.$ It is well known that the positivity of $v\left( f\right) $ implies that the function $\left\vert f\right\vert $ is strictly log-concave on each subinterval which does not contain zeros of $f.$ In this paper we provide criteria for the positivity of $v\left( F\right) $ for the composite Bessel function $F\left( x\right) =J_{\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\nu}\left( x\right) :=x^{\alpha}J_{\nu}\left( \beta x^{\gamma}\right) $ for positive numbers $\beta$ and $\gamma$ and real numbers $\alpha$ and $\nu.$

Riesz capacity ratios with negative exponents

We investigate sharp inequalities for ratios of Riesz capacities with negative exponents by combining computational experiments with rigorous analysis. For finite subsets of the line, we prove positivity of equilibrium masses when $-1<p<0$, enabling numerical tests of conjectured extremal ratios. In the plane, comparisons of the disk with regular polygon vertex sets reveal a cascade of transitions among the tested competitors and suggest a precise conjecture for the equilibrium measure of odd polygons, for which we give a partial proof. Numerical intersections of equality curves show that the regions where these sets outperform the disk are not simply nested. Similar numerical intersections occur in three dimensions between the regular-simplex equality curve and those of explicit five-point and six-point configurations. Motivated by the dimensional dependence of these comparisons, we prove that for each fixed $p<-2<q<0$, the regular simplex has a larger capacity ratio than the ball in all sufficiently large dimensions. Accompanying Python and Mathematica code supports reproduction and further testing of the conjectures.

Shorter proof of dimension-free $L^p$ estimates for maximal Riesz transforms

We provide a shorter and more direct proof of $L^p$ estimates for maximal Riesz transforms (of an arbitrary order) in terms of the corresponding Riesz transforms, with a constant independent of the dimension of the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^d$. This result was originally proved by Mateu, Orobitg, P\'erez and Verdera with a constant depending on the dimension, and improved to a dimension-free inequality by Kucharski, Wr\'obel and Zienkiewicz.
