This paper is motivated by questions concerning the discrete dynamical system on the 3-adic integers Z(3) given by multiplication by 2. The exceptional set epsilon(Z(3)) is defined to be the set of all elements of Z3 whose forward orbits under this action intersect the 3-adic Cantor set Sigma(3,(2) over bar) ( of 3-adic integers whose expansions omit the digit 2) infinitely many times. It has been shown that this set has Hausdorff dimension at most 1/2, and it is conjectured that it has Hausdorff dimension 0. Upper bounds on its Hausdorff dimension can be obtained with sufficient knowledge of Hausdorff dimensions of intersections of multiplicative translates of Cantor sets by powers of 2. This paper studies more generally the structure of finite intersections of general multiplicative translates S = Sigma(3,(2) over bar) boolean AND . . . boolean AND 1/M-n Sigma(3,(2) over bar) by integers 1 < M-1 < M-2 < . . . < M-n. These sets are describable as sets of 3-adic integers whose 3-adic expansions have one-sided symbolic dynamics given by a finite automaton. This paper gives a method to determine the automaton for given data (M-1, . . . , M-n) and to compute the Hausdorff dimension, which is always of the form log(3)(beta) where beta is an algebraic integer. Computational examples indicate that in general the Hausdorff dimension of such sets depends in a very complicated way on the integers M1, . . . , M-n. Exact answers are obtained for certain infinite families, which show as a corollary that a relaxed notion of generalized exceptional set has a positive Hausdorff dimension.
