Abstract

We investigate the convergence of signed null sequences of the form \[ \sum_{n=1}^\infty \varepsilon_n a_n, \quad \varepsilon_n \in \{-1,1\}, \] where $(a_n)$ tends to zero in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Our main result shows that for any such sequence, the set of sign sequences yielding convergence has full Hausdorff dimension in the natural ultrametric topology. This answers a question of Mattila in the one-dimensional case, for which we provide an elementary proof. Moreover, if $(a_n)\notin \ell^1$ in one dimension, then for every $L\in\mathbb{R}$ the set of sign sequences with sum $L$ also has Hausdorff dimension $1$. In higher dimensions the analogous statement does not hold in full generality, but it is guaranteed if the sequence has $d$ linearly independent L\'evy vectors.
