Abstract

Let G be a connected perfect real Lie group. We show that there exists α < dim G and p$\mathbb{N}$* such that if μ is a compactly supported α-Frostman Borel measure on G, then the pth convolution power μ*p is absolutely continuous with respect to the Haar measure on G, with arbitrarily smooth density. As an application, we obtain that if AG is a Borel set with Hausdorff dimension at least α, then the p-fold product set Ap contains a non-empty open set.
