Liu's exceptional-set conjecture for radial projections

About 6 years old · traced to

Let E⊂RdE\subset\mathbb{R}^d be a Borel set with dim⁡HE∈(k−1,k]\dim_{\mathcal{H}} E\in(k-1,k], where k=0,1,…,d−1k=0,1,\dots,d-1. For y∈Rdy\in\mathbb{R}^d, let πy(x)=(x−y)/∣x−y∣\pi^y(x)=(x-y)/|x-y| be the radial projection. Liu's conjecture.

dim⁡H{y∈Rd:dim⁡Hπy(E)<dim⁡HE}⩽k.\dim_{\mathcal{H}}\left\{y\in\mathbb{R}^d:\dim_{\mathcal{H}}\pi^y(E)<\dim_{\mathcal{H}}E\right\}\leqslant k.

The bound is generally sharp when EE lies in a kk-dimensional affine subspace. The conjecture concerns the sharp exceptional-set estimate for radial projections when dim⁡HE⩽d−1\dim_{\mathcal{H}}E\leqslant d-1, and the source states that it remains unknown in general.
