Let $G$ be a finite, non-trivial abelian group of exponent $m$, and suppose that $B_1, ..., B_k$ are generating subsets of $G$. We prove that if $k>2m \ln \log_2 |G|$, then the multiset union $B_1\cup...\cup B_k$ forms an additive basis of…

We first prove Bosch-L\"utkebohmert-Raynaud's conjectures on existence of global N\'eron models of not necessarily semi-abelian algebraic groups in the perfect residue fields case. We then give a counterexample to the existence in the…

Ordering theorems, characterizing when partial orders of a group extend to total orders, are used to generate hypersequent calculi for varieties of lattice-ordered groups (l-groups). These calculi are then used to provide new proofs of…

We show that a finite zero-sum-free sequence $\alpha$ over an abelian group has at least $c|\alpha|^{4/3}$ distinct subsequence sums, unless $\alpha$ is "controlled" by a small number of its terms; here $|\alpha|$ denotes the number of…

Let $G$ be an infinite abelian group with $|2G|=|G|$. We show that if $G$ is not the direct sum of a group of exponent 3 and the group of order 2, then $G$ possesses a perfect additive basis; that is, there is a subset $S\subseteq G$ such…

Let G be a finite abelian group. For g in G and i an integer we define N(i,g) to be the number of subsets of G of size i which sum up to g. We will give a short proof, using character theory, of a formula for these N(i,g) due to Li and Wan.…

It is known that every torsion-free abelian group of finite rank has a maximal completely decomposable summand that is unique up to isomorphism. We show that groups of infinite rank need not have maximal completely decomposable summands,…

We develop a general theory for class-sized symmetric systems as a natural extension of symmetric systems with respect to class forcing. In particular, adapting the usual notions of pretameness and tameness for class forcing, we present…

We give a further extension and generalization of Dedekind's theorem over those presented by Yamaguchi. In addition, we give two corollaries on irreducible representations of finite groups and a conjugation of the group algebra of the…

Let $A$ and $B$ be finite subsets of $\mathbb{C}$ such that $|B|=C|A|$. We show the following variant of the sum product phenomenon: If $|AB|<\alpha|A|$ and $\alpha \ll \log |A|$, then $|kA+lB|\gg |A|^k|B|^l$. This is an application of a…

In this paper we characterize the congruence associated to the direct sum of all irreducible representations of a finite semigroup over an arbitrary field, generalizing results of Rhodes for the field of complex numbers. Applications are…

Suppose that $A$, $B$ and $S$ are non-empty subsets of a finite abelian group $G$. Then the generalized restricted sumset $$ A\stackrel{S}+B:=\{a+b:\,a\in A,\ b\in B,\ a-b\not\in S\} $$ contains at least $$ \min\{|A|+|B|-3|S|,p(G)\} $$…

In this paper we introduce the notion of extension of a numerical semigroup. We provide a characterization of the numerical semigroups whose extensions are all arithmetic and we give an algorithm for the computation of the whole set of…

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the zero-divisors of semigroups with zero and semirings and in particular, to discuss eversible and reversible semigroups and semirings. We also introduce a new ring-like algebraic structure…

We describe a theory of finite sets, and investigate the analogue of Dedekind's theory of natural number systems (simply infinite systems) in this theory. Unlike the infinitary case, in our theory, natural number systems come in differing…

We develop the theory of exact completions of regular $\infty$-categories, and show that the $\infty$-categorical exact completion (resp. hypercompletion) of an abelian category recovers the connective half of its bounded (resp. unbounded)…

We review the basic theory of More Sums Than Differences (MSTD) sets, specifically their existence, simple constructions of infinite families, the proof that a positive percentage of sets under the uniform binomial model are MSTD but not if…

A parametrization of irreducible unitary representations associated with the regular adjoint orbits of a hyperspecial compact subgroup of a reductive group over a non-dyadic non-archimedean local filed is presented. The parametrization is…

We discuss a structural approach to subset-sum problems in additive combinatorics. The core of this approach are Freiman-type structural theorems, many of which will be presented through the paper. These results have applications in various…

We determine the structure of a finite subset $A$ of an abelian group given that $|2A|<3(1-\epsilon)|A|$, $\epsilon>0$; namely, we show that $A$ is contained either in a "small" one-dimensional coset progression, or in a union of fewer than…
