Attainable forms of intermediate dimensions of complementary sets
Abstract
Given a positive, non-increasing sequence $a$ with sum $1$, we consider the family $\mathcal{C}_a$ of closed subsets of $[0,1]$ whose complementary open intervals have lengths given by the terms of $a$. We study which functions $θ\mapsto\overline{\dim}_{\,θ}E$ arise as the upper intermediate dimensions of sets $E\in\mathcal{C}_a$. Under a natural condition on the decay of $a$, we show that these are exactly the functions in the class introduced by Banaji and Rutar that take the value $\overline{\dim}_{\rm B}C_a$ at $θ=1$ and are bounded above by the upper intermediate dimensions of the decreasing Cantor set $C_a$. We also show that the lower bound given by the countable set $D_a$ is rigid: if it is attained at one value of $θ$, then it is attained at all larger values.
