TITLE: Intrinsically measurable subsets of amenable semigroups.
QUESTION [6 upvotes]: This question is related to the one in https://mathoverflow.net/questions/65322/the-structure-of-certain-maximal-sets-of-means-into-amenable-semigroups. I open a different topic because they can be treated separately.
Let $S$ be a countable amenable semigroup and let $IM(S)$ be the set of  the invariant means on $S$.

Definition. For any subset $W\subseteq S$, we define
  $$
W^-=\inf_{m\in IM(S)}m(\chi_W)\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;and\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;W^+=\sup_{m\in IM(S)}m(\chi_W)
$$

There are many and well-known examples that show that these numbers could be different. I am interested in the case when they are equal. As far as I know it seems to me that this situation has no name in literature, so let me fix the following terminology

Definition. $W$ is said to have the property IM (Intrinsically Measurable) if $W^-=W^+$. In this case $\mu(W)$ denotes the intrinsic measure of $W$. 

Basic examples of sets with IM are easy. I need to give such examples in order to formulate my first question. First of all, recall the following (almost) classical

Definition
  Let $k$ be a positive integer possibly infinite. A subset $W\subseteq S$ is called $k$-tile if there are $s_1, s_2,... s_k$ elements in $S$ such that

$s_iW\cap s_jW=\emptyset$, for all $i\neq j$
$S\setminus\bigcup s_iW$ has the property IM and $\mu(S\setminus\bigcup s_iW)=0$


Tiles obviously have the property IM. Moreover the following operations preserve the property IM: finite union of disjoint sets with IM; if $V\subseteq T$ have the property IM, then also $T\setminus V$ have IM. Let me call elementary those sets with the IM that can be obtained by tiles using the previous operations.
Now I list some basic questions about this property IM. The second question is not just a specification of the first one, but it is interesting for the application that is the motivation for studying this property. 

Question 1. Is there an (explicit) example of a non-elementary IM set $W$ with $\mu(W)>0$?
Question 2. Let $S$ be the multiplicative semigroup of positive integers and let $W$ be the subset of those positive integers with first digit $1$, $2$ or $3$. Does $W$ have the property IM?

Note that the property IM is not closed under countable union, but even the answer to the following question is not completely evident to me

Question 3. Is the class of IM sets closed under finite intersection?
  [This question has been answered in the negative by Ben Willson (see below)]

Thanks in advance for any comment,

REPLY [5 votes]: You should look at
Joseph Rosenblatt and Zhuchang Yang, Functions with a unique mean value, Illinois Journal of Mathematics, Volume 34, Number 4, Winter 1990 
where various properties of sets and functions with unique invariant mean a studied. It is a standard fact that Bohr sets in $\mathbb Z$ (or any amenable group) have a unique mean. For example:
$$\mu\left(\left\lbrace n \in \mathbb Z \ \left| \ \min_{m \in \mathbb Z}|\sqrt{2} \cdot n - m| \leq \varepsilon \right.\right\rbrace\right) = 2\varepsilon.$$
This set is non-elementary in your sense.
EDIT: The rough idea is that if there exist $q$ translates of a set such that the union covers each group element at most $p$ times, then the measure is less that $p/q$. Similarily, if the union of the translates covers each group element at least $p'$ times, then the measure is bigger than $p'/q$. Now, translating the set corresponds (up to some $\delta)$ to translating the interval of length $2 \varepsilon$. It is now easy to see that $p/q$ and $p'/q$ can be made to converge to $2 \varepsilon$.
