contents We address the problem of determining the Hausdorff dimension of sets consisting of complex irrationals whose complex continued fraction digits satisfy prescribed restrictions and growth conditions. For the Hurwitz continued fraction, we confirm Hirst's conjecture, as a complex analogue of the result of Wang and Wu [Bull. Lond. Math. Soc. {\bf 40} (2008), no. 1, 18--22] for the regular continued fraction. We also prove a complex analogue of the second-named author's result on the Hausdorff dimension of sets with restricted slowly growing digits [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. {\bf 151} (2023), no. 9, 3645--3653]. To these ends, we exploit an infinite conformal iterated function system associated with the Hurwitz continued fraction.
