Self-similar sets with an open set condition and great variety of overlaps

For a very simple family of self-similar sets with two pieces, we prove, using a technique of Solomyak, that the intersection of the pieces can be a Cantor set with any dimension in [0,0.2] as well as a finite set of any cardinality 2^m. The main point is that the open set condition is fulfilled for...

Description
Summary:For a very simple family of self-similar sets with two pieces, we prove, using a technique of Solomyak, that the intersection of the pieces can be a Cantor set with any dimension in [0,0.2] as well as a finite set of any cardinality 2^m. The main point is that the open set condition is fulfilled for all these examples.
