Title: Box-counting measures of metric spaces
Abstract: In a metric space (X, d), a measure μ is called an Ahlfors regular measure if the measure of any ball with radius r is proportional to rs for some constant s. Ahlfors regular measure plays an important role in analysis of metric spaces. We introduce a notion of box-counting measure, where μ(A) measures the number of δ-boxes intersecting a set A. Indeed, this measure is a generalization of Ahlfors regular measure. For general self-affine sets, there exist box-counting measures but there does not exist Ahlfors measure. First, we show that the multi-fractal spectrum of a box-counting measure is a Lipschitz invariant. Secondly, we show that any bi Lipschitz map between two metric spaces with box-counting measures are (locally) measure preserving.
