We prove that there are no stable intersections of regular Cantor sets in the$C$^{1}topology: given any pair ($K$,$K$′) of regular Cantor sets, we can find, arbitrarily close to it in the$C$^{1}topology, pairs $ \left( {\tilde{K},\tilde{K}'} \right) $ of regular Cantor sets with $ \tilde{K} \cap \tilde{K}' = \emptyset $ .

We study in this work a continuum model derived from 1D attachment-detachment-limited (ADL) type step flow on vicinal surface, $ u_t=-u^2(u^3)_{hhhh}$, where $u$, considered as a function of step height $h$, is the step slope of the surface. We formulate a notion of weak solution to this continuum model and prove the existence of a global weak solution, which is positive almost everywhere. We also study the long time behavior of weak solution and prove it converges to a constant solution as time goes to infinity. The space-time H\"older continuity of the weak solution is also discussed as a byproduct.
