Attainable forms of lower spectra
Abstract
Let $d\in\mathbb{N}$ and $φ\colon(0,1)\to[0,d]$. We prove there exists a set $F\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ whose lower spectrum $\operatorname{dim}^θ_{\mathrm{L}} F$ satisfies $(1-θ)\operatorname{dim}^θ_{\mathrm{L}} F = φ(θ)$ for all $θ\in(0,1)$ if and only if for all $λ,θ\in(0,1)$, \begin{equation*} φ(θ) \leq φ(λθ) - θφ(λ) \leq (1-θ) d. \end{equation*} We also obtain a similar classification result for $\underline{\operatorname{dim}}^θ_{\mathrm{L}} F$. In contrast to the case for Assouad spectra, it is insufficient to consider homogeneous (or uniform) sets. Instead, we follow the approach introduced by Orgoványi--Rutar in arXiv:2510.07013 and proceed via a more general classification result for appropriate two-scale branching functions.
