Set avoiding squares in $\mathbb{Z}_m$

Number Theory 2016-10-18 v1

Abstract

We prove that for all squarefree mm and any set AZmA\subset\mathbb{Z}_m such that AAA-A does not contain non-zero squares the bound Am1/2(3n)1.5n|A|\leq m^{1/2}(3n)^{1.5n} holds, where nn denotes the number of odd prime divisors of mm.
