Hausdorff dimension of wiggly metric spaces

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

For a compact connected set X⊆ℓ∞X\subseteq \ell^{\infty}, we define a quantity β′(x,r)β'(x,r) that measures how close XX may be approximated in a ball B(x,r)B(x,r) by a geodesic curve. We then show there is c>0c>0 so that if β′(x,r)>β>0β'(x,r)>β>0 for all x∈Xx\in X and r<r0r<r_{0}, then dim⁡X>1+cβ2\dim X>1+cβ^{2}. This generalizes a theorem of Bishop and Jones and answers a question posed by Bishop and Tyson.
