Functions with large additive energy supported on a Hamming Sphere

Combinatorics 2018-05-15 v1

Abstract

In this note, we prove that, among functions ff supported on a Hamming Sphere in F2n\mathbb{F}_2^n with fixed 2\ell^2 norm, the additive energy is maximised when ff is constant. This answers a question asked by Kirshner and Samorodnitsky.
