摘要

We establish the dimension version of Falconer’s distance set conjecture for sets of equal Hausdorff and packing dimension (in particular, for Ahlfors-regular sets) in all ambient dimensions. In dimensions d=2 or 3, we obtain the first explicit improvements over the classical 1/2 bound for the dimensions of distance sets of general Borel sets of dimension d/2. For example, we show that the set of distances spanned by a planar Borel set of Hausdorff dimension 1 has Hausdorff dimension at least $(\sqrt{5}-1)/2\approx 0.618$ . In higher dimensions we obtain explicit estimates for the lower Minkowski dimension of the distance sets of sets of dimension d/2. These results rely on new estimates for the dimensions of radial projections that may have independent interest.
