A Small Maximal Sidon Set In $Z_2^n$

Combinatorics 2022-04-12 v3

Abstract

A Sidon set is a subset of an Abelian group with the property that each sum of two distinct elements is distinct. We construct a small maximal Sidon set of size O((n2n)1/3)O((n \cdot 2^n)^{1/3}) in the group Z2n\mathbb{Z}_2^n, generalizing a result of Ruzsa concerning maximal Sidon sets in the integers.
