By a [$K$-]approximate subring of a ring we mean an additively symmetric subset $X$ such that $X \cdot X \cup (X + X)$ is covered by finitely many [resp.\ $K$] additive translates of $X$. We prove a structure theorem for finite approximate…
For $A\subseteq \mathbb{R}$, let $A+A=\{a+b: a,b\in A\}$ and $AA=\{ab: a,b\in A\}$. For $k\in \mathbb{N}$, let $SP(k)$ denote the minimum value of $\max\{|A+A|, |AA|\}$ over all $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ with $|A|=k$. Here we establish…
In this article we aim to develop from first principles a theory of sum sets and partial sum sets, which are defined analogously to difference sets and partial difference sets. We obtain non-existence results and characterisations. In…
In this paper we combine methods from additive combinatorics and Diophantine geometry to study the generalised sum-product phenomenon in algebraic groups. As an application of this circle of ideas, we resolve a conjecture of Bremner on…
In this paper we derive a new class of sum rules for products of the Bessel functions of first kind. Using standard algebraic manipulations we extend some of the well known properties of $J_n$. Some physical applications of the results are…
In this paper we further study the relationship between convexity and additive growth, building on the work of Schoen and Shkredov (\cite{SS}) to get some improvements to earlier results of Elekes, Nathanson and Ruzsa (\cite{ENR}). In…
Recently, Alweiss settled Hindman's conjecture over the rationals. In this paper, we provide our own exposition of Alweiss' result, and show how to modify his method to also show that sums of distinct products are partition regular over the…
We extend previous work on Hrushovski's stabilizer's theorem and prove a measure-theoretic version of a well-known result of Pillay-Scanlon-Wagner on products of three types. This generalizes results of Gowers on products of three sets and…
We study the value distribution of the Sudler product $\prod_{n=1}^N |2 \sin (\pi n \alpha )|$ and the Diophantine product $\prod_{n=1}^N (2e\| n \alpha \|)$ for various irrational $\alpha$, as $N$ ranges in a long interval of integers. At…
The purpose of this article is to further explore how the structure of the affine group can be used to deduce new incidence theorems, and to explore sum-product type applications of these incidence bounds, building on the recent work of…
We establish nontrivial bounds for general bilinear forms with a given periodic function, which are thought of as an analogue of van der Corput differencing for exponential sums. The proof employs Poisson summation, Cauchy-Schwarz, and the…
Given a subset of real numbers $A$ with small product $AA$ we obtain a new upper bound for the additive energy of $A$. The proof uses a natural observation that level sets of convolutions of the characteristic function of $A$ have small…
An asymptotic formula with a square root error term is obtained for the number of elements with given trace and norm in a finite semisimple algebra over a finite field. This extends previous results from finite etale algebras (commutative…
The concept of self-similarity on subsets of algebraic varieties is defined by considering algebraic endomorphisms of the variety as `similarity' maps. Self-similar fractals are subsets of algebraic varieties which can be written as a…
In this paper, we prove new upper bounds for sums of reciprocals of fractional parts over general aligned boxes, thus extending a previous result of the author concerning bounds for sums of reciprocals over symmetric boxes. These new upper…
The so called Ahlfors function is the solution to an extremal problem. In this thesis, we study several properties of this function in a most general domain Omega. We consider the Ahlfors function in the context of analytic capacity, and…
We prove that for an arbitrary $\kappa \le \frac{1}{3}$ any subset of $\mathbf{F}_p$ avoiding $t$ linear equations with three variables has size less than $O(p/t^\kappa)$. We also find several applications to problems about so--called…
By considering a limiting form of the q-Dixon_4\phi_3 summation, we prove a weighted partition theorem involving odd parts differing by >= 4. A two parameter refinement of this theorem is then deduced from a quartic reformulation of…
We are interested to bound from below the number of distinct dot products determined by a finite set of points $P$ in the Euclidean plane. In this paper, we build on the work of B. Hanson, O. Roche-Newton, and S. Senger, to obtain the…
New bounds are derived for the eigenvalues of sums of Kronecker products of square matrices by relating the corresponding matrix expressions to the covariance structure of suitable bi-linear stochastic systems in discrete and continuous…
