We present the first explicit comparison-based algorithm that sorts the sumset $X + Y = \{x_i + y_j,\ \forall 0 \le i, j < n\}$, where $X$ and $Y$ are sorted arrays of real numbers, in optimal $O(n^2)$ time and comparisons. While Fredman…

To partition a sequence of n integers into subsets with prescribed sums is an NP-hard problem in general. In this paper we present an efficient solution for the homogeneous version of this problem; i.e. where the elements in each subset add…

Sumsets are central objects in additive combinatorics. In 2007, Granville asked whether one can efficiently recognize whether a given set $S$ is a sumset, i.e. whether there is a set $A$ such that $A+A=S$. Granville suggested an algorithm…
