摘  要：Furstenberg set conjecture states that a set containing an s-dim subset of a line in every direction should have dimension at least  (3s+1)/2 when  s>0.   It can be viewed as an incidence problem for tubes and a continuous version of the Szemeredi-Trotter theorem.  

We will survey a sequence of results by Orponen, Shmerkin and a recent joint work with Ren that leads to the solution of this conjecture.  

The first lecture will be a research talk, starting from the second lecture, we will discuss a short proof of Bourgain's discretized sum-product theorem, followed by proofs of recent results by Orponen, Shmerkin, Ren and myself. No prior knowledge on geometric measure theory is required.
