We give in the present work a new methodology that allows to give isoperimetric proofs, for Kneser's Theorem and Kemperman's structure Theory and most sophisticated results of this type. As an illustration we present a new proof of Kneser's…
We show that if a finite, large enough subset A of an arbitrary abelian group satisfies the small doubling condition |A + A| < (log |A|)^{1 - epsilon} |A|, then A must contain a three-term arithmetic progression whose terms are not all…
We characterize the pairs of sets $A, B$ in an arbitrary (countable or uncountable) discrete abelian group $\Gamma$ satisfying $\tilde{m}(A+B)<\tilde{m}(A)+\tilde{m}(B)$, where $\tilde{m}$ is an arbitrary finitely additive…
The $3k-4$ Theorem is a classical result which asserts that if $A,\,B\subseteq \mathbb Z$ are finite, nonempty subsets with \begin{equation}\label{hyp}|A+B|=|A|+|B|+r\leq |A|+|B|+\min\{|A|,\,|B|\}-3-\delta,\end{equation} where $\delta=1$ if…
We prove a generalization of Frieman's $3k-3$ theorem for the sumset $$ \Sigma^{l}(A_1,\ldots,A_k)=\{a_{j_{1}}+\cdots+a_{j_{l}}:\,1\leq j_{1}<\cdots<j_{l}\leq k,\ a_{j_{s}}\in A_{j_{s}}\text{ for all }s\}. $$
Let G be any additive abelian group with cyclic torsion subgroup, and let A, B and C be finite subsets of G with cardinality n>0. We show that there is a numbering {a_i}_{i=1}^n of the elements of A, a numbering {b_i}_{i=1}^n of the…
Let G be a finite Abelian group and A be a subset G\times G of cardinality at least |G|^2/(log log |G|)^c, where c>0 is an absolute constant. We prove that A contains a triple {(k,m), (k+d,m), (k,m+d)}, where d does not equal 0. This…
We consider symmetric tensors of format: $3 \times 3$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for $p = 2, 3, 5$; $3 \times 3 \times 3$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for $p = 2, 3$; and $3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for $p = 2, 3$. In each case we…
In this paper we introduce a new formalism for $K$-theory, called squares $K$-theory. This formalism allows us to simultaneously generalize the usual three-term relation $[B] = [A] + [C]$ for an exact sequence $A \hookrightarrow B…
Kneser's theorem in the integers asserts that denoting by $ \underline{\mathrm{d}}$ the lower asymptotic density, if $\underline{\mathrm{d}}(X_1+\cdots+X_k)<\sum_{i=1}^k\underline{\mathrm{d}}(X_i)$ then the sumset $X_1+\cdots+X_k$ is…
Let A,B,S be finite subsets of an abelian group G. Suppose that the restricted sumset C={a+b: a in A, b in B, and a-b not in S} is nonempty and some c in C can be written as a+b with a in A and b in B in at most m ways. We show that if G is…
A recent result of Balandraud shows that for every subset S of an abelian group G, there exists a non trivial subgroup H such that |TS| <= |T|+|S|-2 holds only if the stabilizer of TS contains H. Notice that Kneser's Theorem says only that…
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…
Given a spectral triple $(A,H,D)$ and a $C^*$-dynamical system $(\mathbf{A}, G, \alpha)$ where $A$ is dense in $\mathbf{A}$ and $G$ is a locally compact group, we extend the triple to a triplet $(\mathcal{B},\mathcal{H},\mathcal{D})$ on the…
Let $G$ be an additive finite abelian group of order $n$, and let $S$ be a sequence of $n+k$ elements in $G$, where $k\geq 1$. Suppose that $S$ contains $t$ distinct elements. Let $\sum_n(S)$ denote the set that consists of all elements in…
The classical Kneser-Milnor theorem says that every closed oriented connected 3-dimensional manifold admits a unique connected sum decomposition into manifolds that cannot be decomposed any further. We discuss to what degree such…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $E$ a subset of it. Suppose that we know for all subsets $T$ of $G$ of size up to $k$ for how many $x \in G$ the translate $x+T$ is contained in $E$. This information is collectively called the $k$-deck…
Let G be an arbitrary finite group and let S and T be two subsets such that |S|>1, |T|>1, and |TS|< |T|+|S|< |G|-1. We show that if |S|< |G|-4|G|^{1/2}+1 then either S is a geometric progression or there exists a non-trivial subgroup H such…
In this paper, we deal with reversing and extended symmetries of shifts generated by bijective substitutions. We provide equivalent conditions for a permutation on the alphabet to generate a reversing/extended symmetry, and algorithms how…
Fix $k \geq 6$. We prove that any large enough finite group $G$ contains $k$ elements which span quadratically many triples of the form $(a,b,ab) \in S \times G$, given any dense set $S \subseteq G \times G$. The quadratic bound is…
