Dimensions of random covering sets in Riemann manifolds

Abstract

Let ${\mathbf{M}}$, ${\mathbf{N}}$ and ${\mathbf{K}}$ be $d$-dimensional Riemann manifolds. Assume that ${\mathbf{A}}:=(A_{n})_{n\in{\mathbb{N}}}$ is a sequence of Lebesgue measurable subsets of ${\mathbf{M}}$ satisfying a necessary density condition and ${\mathbf{x}}:=(x_{n})_{n\in{\mathbb{N}}}$ is a sequence of independent random variables, which are distributed on ${\mathbf{K}}$ according to a measure, which is not purely singular with respect to the Riemann volume. We give a formula for the almost sure value of the Hausdorff dimension of random covering sets ${\mathbf{E}}({\mathbf{x}},{\mathbf{A}}):=\limsup_{n\to\infty}A_{n}(x_{n})\subset{\mathbf{N}}$. Here, $A_{n}(x_{n})$ is a diffeomorphic image of $A_{n}$ depending on $x_{n}$. We also verify that the packing dimensions of ${\mathbf{E}}({\mathbf{x}},{\mathbf{A}})$ equal $d$ almost surely.
