Abstract

In spite of the Lebesgue density theorem, there is a positive \({\delta}\) such that, for every measurable set \({A \subset \mathbb{R}}\) with \({\lambda (A) > 0}\) and \({\lambda (\mathbb{R} \setminus A) > 0}\), there is a point at which both the lower densities of \({A}\) and of the complement of \({A}\) are at least \({\delta}\). The problem of determining the supremum of possible values of this \({\delta}\) was studied by V. I. Kolyada, A. Szenes and others. It seems that the authors considered this quantity a feature of density. We show that it is connected rather with a choice of a differentiation basis.
