Alec Norton

Abstract. If X is the (unique) minimal set for a C 1+α diffeomorphism of the circle without periodic orbits, 0 < α < 1, then the upper box dimension of X is at least α. The method of proof...

Denjoy Minimal Sets Are Far From Affine

Alec Norton

. Not every Cantor set can arise as the minimal set for a C 1 diffeomorphism of the circle. For example, D. McDuff has shown that the usual "middle thirds" Cantor set cannot arise this way....
