| Popis: | The lower dimension $\dim_L$ is the dual concept of the Assouad dimension. As it fails to be monotonic, Fraser and Yu introduced the modified lower dimension $\dim_{ML}$ by making the lower dimension monotonic with the simple formula $\dim_{ML} X=\sup\{\dim_L E: E\subset X\}$. As our first result we prove that the modified lower dimension is finitely stable in any metric space, answering a question of Fraser and Yu. We prove a new, simple characterization for the modified lower dimension. For a metric space $X$ let $\mathcal{K}(X)$ denote the metric space of the non-empty compact subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric. As an application of our characterization, we show that the map $\dim_{ML} \colon \mathcal{K}(X)\to [0,\infty]$ is Borel measurable. More precisely, it is of Baire class $2$, but in general not of Baire class $1$. This answers another question of Fraser and Yu. Finally, we prove that the modified lower dimension is not Borel measurable defined on the closed sets of $\ell^1$ endowed with the Effros Borel structure. 10 pages.
