In this paper, we study a problem posed by Furstenberg on intersections between × 2 , × 3 \times 2, \times 3 invariant sets. We present here a direct geometrical counting argument to revisit a theorem of Wu and Shmerkin. This argument can be used to obtain further improvements. For example, we show that if A 2 , A 3 ⊂ [ 0 , 1 ] A_2,A_3\subset [0,1] are closed and × 2 , × 3 \times 2, \times 3 invariant respectively, assuming that dim ⁡ A 2 + dim ⁡ A 3 > 1 \dim A_2+\dim A_3>1 then A 2 ∩ ( u A 3 + v ) A_2\cap (uA_3+v) is sparse (defined in this paper) and has box dimension zero uniformly with respect to the real parameters u , v u,v such that u u and u − 1 u^{-1} are both bounded away from 0 0 .
