Abstract: Recently, considerable attention has been given to the study of the arithmetic sum of two planar sets. We focus on understanding the interior $left(A+Gammaight{)}^{circ}$, when $Gamma$ is a piecewise $mathcal{C}^2$ curve and $Asubsetmathbb{R}^2.$ To begin, we give an example of a very large (full-measure, dense, $G_{d}elta$) set $A$ such that $left(A+S^{1}ight{)}^{circ}=emptyset$, where $S^1$ denotes the unit circle. This suggests that merely the size of $A$ does not guarantee that $(A+S^1{)}^{circ}eemptyset$. If, however, we assume that $A$ is a kind of generalized product of two reasonably large sets, then $left(A+Gammaight{)}^{circ}eemptyset$ whenever $Gamma$ has non-vanishing curvature. As a byproduct of our method, we prove that the pinned distance set of $C:=C_{gamma}imes{C}_{gamma}$, $gammageqfrac13$, pinned at any point of $C$ has non-empty interior, where $C_{gamma}$ (see (1.1)) is the middle $1-2gamma$ Cantor set (including the usual middle-third Cantor set, $C_{1/3}$). Our proof for the middle-third Cantor set requires a separate method. We also prove that $C+S^1$ has non-empty interior.
