Abstract
Suppose that and are sets in , and we form the sumset of with random points of . Given the volumes of and , how should we choose them to minimize the expected volume of this sumset? Our aim in this paper is to show that we should take and to be Euclidean balls. We also consider the analogous question in the torus , and we show that in this case the optimal choices of and are bands, in other words, sets of the form . We also give stability versions of our results.
