The Favard length of product Cantor sets

Abstract

Nazarov, Peres and Volberg proved recently that the Favard length of the $n$-th iteration of the four-corner Cantor set is bounded from above by $n^{-c}$ for an appropriate $c$. We generalize this result to all product Cantor sets whose projection in some direction has positive 1-dimensional measure.
