Abstract

Given some integer m3m \geq 3, we find the first explicit collection of countably many intervals in (1,2)(1,2) such that for any qq in one of these intervals, the set of points with exactly mm base qq expansions is nonempty and moreover has positive Hausdorff dimension. Our method relies on an application of a theorem proved by Falconer and Yavicoli, which guarantees that the intersection of a family of compact subsets of Rd\mathbb{R}^d has positive Hausdorff dimension under certain conditions.
