Visible and invisible cantor sets

In this chapter we study for which Cantor sets there exists a gauge-function h, such that the h−Hausdorff measure—is positive and finite. We show that the collection of sets for which this is true is dense in the set of all compact subsets of a Polish space X. More general, any generic Cantor set sa...

Sumario:In this chapter we study for which Cantor sets there exists a gauge-function h, such that the h−Hausdorff measure—is positive and finite. We show that the collection of sets for which this is true is dense in the set of all compact subsets of a Polish space X. More general, any generic Cantor set satisfies that there exists a translation-invariant measure μ for which the set has positive and finite μ-measure.In contrast, we generalize an example of Davies of dimensionless Cantor sets (i.e., a Cantor set for which any translation invariant measure is either 0 or non-σ-finite) that enables us to show that the collection of these sets is also dense in the set of all compact subsets of a Polish space X. © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013.
