New bounds in the Bogolyubov-Ruzsa lemma

Combinatorics 2023-11-10 v2 Number Theory

Abstract

We establish new bounds in the Bogolyubov-Ruzsa lemma, demonstrating that if A is a subset of a finite abelian group with density alpha, then 3A-3A contains a Bohr set of rank O(log^2 (2/alpha)) and radius Omega(log^{-2} (2/alpha)). The Bogolyubov-Ruzsa lemma is one of the deepest results in additive combinatorics, with a plethora of important consequences. In particular, we obtain new results toward the Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture and improved bounds in Freiman's theorem.
