Garaev's Inequality in finite fields not of prime order

Abstract

We prove a version of Garaev's sum product theorem in the set of finite fields with non-prime order. Because of the presence of subfields, this seems to require some hypotheses on the set. We work under a condition analogous to having Hausdorff dimension less than 1/2. Under these conditions, we obtain a sum-product theorem with exponent 49/48.
