Abstract

We resolve a few questions regarding the uniformity and size of microsets of subsets of Euclidean space. First, we construct a compact set K⊂ℝd with Assouad dimension arbitrarily close to d such that every microset of K has no Ahlfors--David regular subset with dimension strictly larger than 0. This answers a question of Orponen. Then, we show that for any non-empty compact set K⊂ℝd with lower dimension β, there is a microset E of K with finite β-dimensional packing pre-measure. This answers a strong version of a question of Fraser--Howroyd--Käenmäki--Yu, who previously obtained a similar result concerning the upper box dimension.
