We prove that a finite set of natural numbers $J$ satisfies that $J\cup\{0\}$ is not Sidon if and only if for any operator $T$, the disjoint hypercyclicity of $\{T^j:j\in J\}$ implies that $T$ is weakly mixing. As an application we show the…
A set A is a Sidon set in an additive group G if every element of G can be written at most one way as sum of two elements of A. A particular case of two-dimensional Sidon sets are the sonar sequences, which are two-dimensional…
We solve an elementary extremal problem on trigonometric polynomials and obtain the exact value of the Sidon constant for sets with three elements {n0, n1, n2}: it is \sec(\pi / 2n) for n = max(n1-n0, n2-n0, n2-n1) / gcd(n1-n0, n2-n0).
Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. Suppose the characteristic of $\mathbb{F}_q$ is not $2$ or $3$. In this paper, we prove an $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$-analogue of results…
In this entry point into the subject, combining two elementary proofs, we decrease the gap between the upper and lower bounds by $0.2\%$ in a classical combinatorial number theory problem. We show that the maximum size of a Sidon set of $\{…
We study the maximum size of Sidon sets in unions of integers intervals. If $A\subseteq\mathbb{N}$ is the union of two intervals and if $\left| A \right|=n$ (where $\left| A \right|$ denotes the cardinality of $A$), we prove that $A$…
The problem of determining the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph that does not contain a 4-cycle has a rich history in extremal graph theory. Using Sidon sets constructed by Bose and Chowla, for each odd prime power $q$ we…
A set of integers $S \subset \mathbb{N}$ is an $\alpha$-strong Sidon set if the pairwise sums of its elements are far apart by a certain measure depending on $\alpha$, more specifically if $| (x+w) - (y+z) | \geq \max \{…
Sidon spaces have been introduced by Bachoc, Serra and Z\'emor in 2017 as the $q$-analogue of Sidon sets. The interest on Sidon spaces has increased quickly, especially after the work of Roth, Raviv and Tamo in 2018, in which they…
We show that there are many (compact) convex semi-algebraic sets in euclidean space that do not have a semidefinite representation. This gives a negative answer to a question by Nemirovski, resp. it shows that the Helton-Nie conjecture is…
When working in NF, [1] there is a sense that there are more non-Cantorian sets than Cantorian sets. But it is not that immediate result as one expects, since they are externally equinumerous, and the qualification "Cantorian" is not…
Generalising results of Erd\H{o}s-Freud and Lindstr\"om, we prove that the largest Sidon subset of a bounded interval of integers is equidistributed in Bohr neighbourhoods. We establish this by showing that extremal Sidon sets are…
For $h \ge 2$ and an infinite set of positive integers $A$, let $R_{A,h}(n)$ denote the number of solutions of the equation $a_{1} + a_{2} + \dots{} + a_{h} = n, a_{1} \in A, \dots{} ,a_{h} \in A, a_{1} < a_{2} < \dots{} < a_{h}.$ In this…
Except for a limited number of cases, a complete classification of the Diophantine sets of polynomial rings and fields of rational functions seems out of reach at present. We contribute to this problem by proving that several natural sets…
We prove that for any $\epsilon>0$ and any trigonometric polynomial $f$ with frequencies in the set $\{n^3: N \leq n\leq N+N^{2/3-\epsilon}\}$, one has $$ \|f\|_4 \ll \epsilon^{-1/4}\|f\|_2 $$ with implied constant being absolute. We also…
For a positive integer $n$, let $g(n)$ denote the infimum of all real numbers $L$ such that there exists a multiplicative Sidon set $A\subseteq\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ that intersects every interval $[x,x+L]\subseteq[1,n]$. S\'ark\"ozy asked for…
We report new examples of Sidon sets in abelian groups arising from generalized jacobians of curves, and discuss some of their properties with respect to size and structure.
We say that a set is a multiplicative 3-Sidon set if the equation $s_1s_2s_3=t_1t_2t_3$ does not have a solution consisting of distinct elements taken from this set. In this paper we show that the size of a multiplicative 3-Sidon subset of…
A set $S$ of natural numbers is multiplicative Sidon if the products of all pairs in $S$ are distinct. Erd\H{o}s in 1938 studied the maximum size of a multiplicative Sidon subset of $\{1,\ldots, n\}$, which was later determined up to the…
This chapter investigates the properties of (linear) codes in $ A_n $ lattices, the practical motivation for which is found in several communication scenarios, such as asymmetric channels, sticky-insertion channels, bit-shift channels, and…
