In this paper, we study additive properties of finite sets of lattice points on spheres in $3$ and $4$ dimensions. Thus, given $d,m \in \mathbb{N}$, let $A$ be a set of lattice points $(x_1, \dots, x_d) \in \mathbb{Z}^d$ satisfying $x_1^2 +…
Given a set of integers $A$ and an integer $k$, write $A+k\cdot A$ for the set $\{a+kb:a\in A,b\in A\}$. Hanson and Petridis showed that if $|A+A|\le K|A|$ then $|A+2\cdot A|\le K^{2.95}|A|$. At a presentation of this result, Petridis…
Let $k\ge 2$ be an integer and let $A$ be a set of nonnegative integers. For a $k$-tuple of positive integers $\underline{\lambda} = (\lambda_{1}, \dots{} ,\lambda_{k})$ with $1 \le \lambda_{1} < \lambda_{2} < \dots{} < \lambda_{k}$, we…
We prove that every additive set $A$ with energy $E(A)\ge |A|^3/K$ has a subset $A'\subseteq A$ of size $|A'|\ge (1-\varepsilon)K^{-1/2}|A|$ such that $|A'-A'|\le O_\varepsilon(K^{4}|A'|)$. This is, essentially, the largest structured set…
For any given set $A$ of nonnegative integers and for any given two positive integers $k_1,k_2$, $R_{k_1,k_2}(A,n)$ is defined as the number of solutions of the equation $n=k_1a_1+k_2a_2$ with $a_1,a_2\in A$. In this paper, we prove that if…
We obtain a non--trivial upper bound for the multiplicative energy of any sufficiently large subset of a subvariety of a finite algebraic group. We also find some applications of our results to growth of conjugates classes, estimates of…
In this paper the representation of $A_{\kk}(2)$ algebra given by Daoud and Kibler [M.Daoud and M.Kibler, J.Phys.A 43 115303 (2010), 45 244036 (2012)] is investigated. It is shown that the new generators are necessary for consistency of the…
We prove bounds for the number of solutions to $$a_1 + \dots + a_k = a_1' + \dots + a_k'$$ over $N$-element sets of reals, which are sufficiently convex or near-convex. A near-convex set will be the image of a set with small additive…
Let $p\geq 3$ be a prime and $n\geq 1$ be an integer. Let $K\subseteq {\mathbb{F}_p}$ denote a fixed subset with $0\in K$. Let $A\subseteq ({\mathbb{F}_p})^n$ be an arbitrary subset such that $$\{…
We investigate the function $d_\mathbf{A}(n)$, which gives the size of a least size generating set for $\mathbf{A}^n$, in the case where $\mathbf{A}$ has a cube term. We show that if $\mathbf{A}$ has a $k$-cube term and $\mathbf{A}^k$ is…
We find the optimal constant $C$ such that \begin{equation*} \|f_1*f_2*\dots*f_{k}\|_{\infty}\geq C\prod_{i=1}^{k}\|f_i\|_1 \end{equation*} for functions $f_i:\{0,1\}^d\to\mathbb{R}$. As applications, we derive bounds for Sidon sets on…
For $k\geq 2$, we give a detailed exposition of the superior $k$-highly composite numbers. We then consider the function \[f_k(n)=\frac{\log d_k(n)\log\log n}{\log k\log n},\quad n\geq 3\] which has a maximum value $\lambda(k)$ at a…
Let $Q_d$ be the hypercube of dimension $d$ and let $H$ and $K$ be subsets of the vertex set $V(Q_d)$, called configurations in $Q_d$. We say that $K$ is an \emph{exact copy} of $H$ if there is an automorphism of $Q_d$ which sends $H$ onto…
We show that for each abelian number field $K$ of sufficiently large degree $d$ there exists an element $\alpha\in K$ with $K=\IQ(\alpha)$ and absolute Weil height $H(\alpha)\ll_d |\Delta_K|^{1/2d}$ , where $\Delta_K$ denotes the…
Let $X$ be a finite collection of sets (or "clusters"). We consider the problem of counting the number of ways a cluster $A \in X$ can be partitioned into two disjoint clusters $A_1, A_2 \in X$, thus $A = A_1 \uplus A_2$ is the disjoint…
In the year 1990, B\'ela Bollob\'as, Imre Leader and Andrew Radcliffe considered the following combinatorial problem: given three parameters k, n and q, find a set of k vertices in the binary n-cube which contains a maximal number of…
We show that on the $d$-dimensional cube $I^d\equiv [0,1]^d$ the discrete moduli of smoothness which use only the values of the function on a diadic mesh are sufficient to determine the moduli of smoothness of that function. As an important…
Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers. Recent work has suggested a strong link between the additive energy of $A$ (the number of solutions to $a_1 + a_2 = a_3 + a_4$ with $a_i \in A$) and the metric Poissonian property, which is a fine-scale…
In this paper we prove that given two sets $E_1,E_2 \subset \mathbb{Z}$ of positive density, there exists $k \geq 1$ which is bounded by a number depending only on the densities of $E_1$ and $E_2$ such that $k\mathbb{Z} \subset…
Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group with exponent $d^kn, d,n>1,$ and $k$ a positive integer. For $S$ a sequence over $G$ and $A=\{1,2,\ldots,d^kn-1\}\setminus\{d^kn/d^i:i\in[1,k]\}, $ we investigate the lower bound of the number…
