Abstract

In this paper we obtain new lower bounds for the upper box dimension of αβ sets. As a corollary of our main result, we show that if α is not a Liouville number and β is a Liouville number, then the upper box dimension of any αβ set is 1. We also use our dimension bounds to obtain new results on affine embeddings of self-similar sets.
