Limit behaviour of the box-counting dimension.












0












$begingroup$


I read this in one of Falconer's books on Fractal Geometry:



The definition of box-counting dimension is essentially saying that



$N_{delta}(F) delta^s to_{delta to 0^{+}} infty$ if $s < dim_B F$ and $N_{delta}(F) delta^s to_{delta to 0^{+}} 0$ if $s > dim_B F$.



However, I'm not sure how to prove this statement.



What I did



I proved that for some $s_0$, the two statements hold.



It remains to prove $s_0 = dim_B F$?



The cases where $dim_B ; F notin {0,infty}$ are clear.



What if $dim_B ; F = 0$ or $dim_B ; F = infty$?
