On Cantor sets with arbitrary Hausdorff and packing measures

Abstract: For every couple of Hausdorff functions $\psi, \varphi$ verifying some mild assumptions, we construct a compact subset $ K $ of the Baire space such that the $\varphi$-Hausdorff measure and the $\psi$-packing measure on $ K $ are both finite and positive. We then embed such examples in any infinite-dimensional Banach space to answer positively to a question of Fan on the existence of metric spaces with arbitrary scales.
