Let C be the middle third Cantor set and μ be the log 2/log 3 -dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to C. In this paper we study approximations of elements of C by dyadic rationals.
Our main result implies that for μ almost every x ∈ C we have
(mathematical equation here)
This improves upon a recent result of Allen, Chow, and Yu which gives a sub-logarithmic improvement over the trivial approximation rate.
