In the first Heisenbeg group, endowed with the Kor\\'anyi metric, we show that the Hausdorff dimension of the vertical projection $\\pi(E)$ (projection along the center of the Heisenberg group) almost surely equals $\\min\\{2,dim_H(E)\\}$ and that $\\pi(E)$ has non-empty interior if $dim_H(E)>2$. As a corollary, this allows us to determine the Hausdorff dimension of $E$ with respect to the Euclidean metric in terms of its Heisenberg Hausdorff dimension $dim_H (E)$. We also study projections in the one-point compactification of the Heisenberg group, that is, the $3$-sphere $S^3$ endowed with the visual metric $d$ obtained by identifying $S^3$ with the boundary of the complex hyperbolic plane. In $S^3$, we prove a projection result that holds simultaneously for all radial projections (projections along so called \"chains\"). This shows that the Poisson cut-outs in $S^3$ satisfy a strong version of the Marstrand's projection theorem, without any exceptional directions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-12-03T13:40:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60D05", "28A80", "37D35", "37C45", "53C17" ], "keywords": [ "heisenberg group", "first heisenbeg group", "poisson cut-out sets", "marstrands projection theorem", "study projectional properties" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 36, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
