Supercritical holes for the doubling map

Abstract

For a map $S:X\to X$ and an open connected set ($=$ a hole) $H\subset X$ we define $\mathcal J_H(S)$ to be the set of points in $X$ whose $S$-orbit avoids $H$. We say that a hole $H_0$ is supercritical if (i) for any hole $H$ such that $\bar{H_0}\subset H$ the set $\mathcal J_H(S)$ is either empty or contains only fixed points of $S$; (ii) for any hole $H$ such that \barH\subset H_0 the Hausdorff dimension of $\mathcal J_H(S)$ is positive. The purpose of this note to completely characterize all supercritical holes for the doubling map $Tx=2x\bmod1$.Comment: This is a new version, where a full characterization of supercritical holes for the doubling map is obtaine
