A generalization of Marstrand's theorem and some geometric applications (1611.09965v3)

Abstract: In this paper we prove using quite elementary methods, with a combinatorial nature, two general results related to Marstrand's projection theorem in a quite general formulation over metric spaces under a suitable transversality condition (the "projections" are in principle only continuous, and the transversality condition gives flexibility in exponents) - the result is flexible enough to, in particular, recover most of the classical Marstrand-like theorems. We also give some new geometrical applications of our results - one of them is a new result related to Falconer's distance conjecture.
