Let E be a Borel set of RN. The α-outer Hausdorff measure of E has been defined to be

where

and each Bi is a closed ball. d(Bi) denotes the diameter of Bi.

It is easily seen that the same value Hα(E) is obtained if we consider coverings of E by open balls or by balls which may be either open or closed.

By dim(E) we will mean the usual Hausdorff-Besicovitch dimension of E, where
