Given a finite subset Σ⊂R and a positive real number
q<1 we study topological and measure-theoretic properties of the self-similar
set K(Σ;q)={∑n=0∞anqn:(an)n∈ω∈Σω}, which is the unique compact
solution of the equation K=Σ+qK. The obtained results are applied to
studying partial sumsets E(x)={∑n=0∞xnεn:(εn)n∈ω∈{0,1}ω} of some
(multigeometric) sequences x=(xn)n∈ω.Comment: 10 page
