Abstract
The relationship between the rate of approximation of a monotone function by step functions (with an increasing number of values) and the Hausdorff dimension of the corresponding Lebesgue–Stieltjes measure is studied. An upper bound on the dimension is found in terms of the approximation rate, and it is shown that a lower bound cannot be constructed in these terms.
