Let Ω⊂$R$^{$n$}be an arbitrary open set. In this paper it is shown that if a Sobolev function$f$∈$W$^{1,$p$}(Ω) possesses a zero trace (in the sense of Lebesgue points) on ϖΩ, then$f$is weakly zero on ϖΩ in the sense that$f$∈$W$_{0}^{1,$p$}(Ω).

We prove the following conjecture of Furstenberg (1969): if 𝐴,𝐵⊂[0,1] are closed and invariant under ×𝑝 mod1 and ×𝑞 mod1, respectively, and if log𝑝/log𝑞∉ℚ, then for all real numbers 𝑢 and 𝑣, dim_H (𝑢𝐴 + 𝑣) ∩ 𝐵 ≤ max {0, dim_H 𝐴 + dim_H 𝐵 − 1}. We obtain this result as a consequence of our study on the intersections of incommensurable self-similar sets on ℝ. Our methods also allow us to give upper bounds for dimensions of arbitrary slices of planar self-similar sets satisfying SSC and certain natural irreducible conditions.
