Abstract

For E a subset of ℝn and s ∈ [0, n] we define upper and lower box dimension profiles, B-dimsE and B-dimsE respectively, that are closely related to the box dimensions of the orthogonal projections of E onto subspaces of ℝn. In particular, the projection of E onto almost all m-dimensional subspaces has upper box dimension B-dimmE and lower box dimension B-dimmE. By defining a packing type measure with respect to s-dimensional kernels we are able to establish the connection to an analogous packing dimension theory.
