Abstract

Let E = E({n k }, {C k })) be a fat uniform Cantor set. We prove that E is a minimally fat set for doubling measures if and only if Σ(n k c k )p = ∞ for all p < 1 and that E is a fairly fat set for doubling measures if and only if there are constants 0 < p < q < 1 such that Σ(n k c k )q < ∞ and Σ(n k c k )p = ∞. The classes of minimally thin uniform Cantor sets and of fairly thin uniform Cantor sets are also characterized.
