On the distribution of additive energy revisited

Combinatorics 2026-02-03 v1

Abstract

This paper extends the investigation of energy distribution in finite settings, which is related to the results established in [H]. We analyze the distribution of multiplicative energies using Fourier analytical methods and random structures. Our results provide new structural insights into energy phenomena in finite fields, complementing the earlier discrete analysis. Additionally, we provide an estimate for the smallest kk such that the kk-fold product set AkA^k covers the entire field F\mathbb{F}, given that AA has small doubling.
