Two-Scale Frostman Measures

Abstract

We establish a unified Frostman-type framework connecting the classical Hausdorff dimension with the family of intermediate dimensions ${\dim }_{\hat{I}}¸$ recently introduced by Falconer, Fraser and Kempton. We define a new geometric quantity $\mathcal{D}(E)$ and prove that, under mild assumptions, there exists a family of measures $\{\hat{I}{¼}_{\hat{I}}´\}$ supported on $E$ satisfying two simultaneous decay conditions, corresponding to the Hausdorff and intermediate Frostman inequalities. Such $(\hat{I}´,s,t)$-Frostman measures allow for a two-scale characterization of the dimension of $E$.
