Abstract

Given a number d ∈ (o, n], the d-dimensional Hausdorff Capacity of a set \(E \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}\) is given by

$$\displaystyle{ \Lambda ^{d}(E) =\inf \bigg\{\sum _{ j}r_{j}^{d}: E \subset \cup _{ j}B(x_{j},r_{j}),\;j = 1,2,3,\ldots.\bigg\} }$$
(3.1)

i.e., E is covered by balls B(x j , r j ), centered at some x j and of radius r j  > 0, and then the infimum is taken over all corresponding sums.
