Restricted Hausdorff spectra of q-adic automorphisms

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Firstly, we completely determine the self-similar Hausdorff spectrum of the group of q -adic automorphisms where q is a prime power, answering a question of Grigorchuk. Indeed, we take a further step and completely determine its Hausdorff spectra restricted to the most important subclasses of self-similar groups, providing examples differing drastically from the previously known ones in the literature. Our proof relies on a new explicit formula for the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of closed self-similar groups and a generalization of iterated permutational wreath products. Secondly, we provide for every prime p the first examples of just infinite branch pro- p groups with zero Hausdorff dimension in Γ p , giving strong evidence against a well-known conjecture of Boston.
