Let $A\subset [1, 2]$ be a $(\delta, \sigma)$-set with measure $|A|=\delta^{1-\sigma}$ in the sense of Katz and Tao. For $\sigma\in (1/2, 1)$ we show that $$ |A+A|+|AA|\gtrapprox \delta^{-c}|A|, $$ for…
We give a new proof of the discretized ring theorem for sets of real numbers. As a special case, we show that if $A\subset\mathbb{R}$ is a $(\delta,1/2)_1$-set in the sense of Katz and Tao, then either $A+A$ or $A.A$ must have measure at…
Let $A$ and $B$ be finite subsets of $\mathbb{C}$ such that $|B|=C|A|$. We show the following variant of the sum product phenomenon: If $|AB|<\alpha|A|$ and $\alpha \ll \log |A|$, then $|kA+lB|\gg |A|^k|B|^l$. This is an application of a…
We present a new method to bound the cardinality of triple product sets in groups and give three applications. A new and unexpectedly short proof of the Plunnecke-Ruzsa sumset inequalities for Abelian groups. A new proof of a theorem of Tao…
We study the $\delta$-discretized sum-product estimates for well spaced sets. Our main result is: for a fixed $\alpha\in(1,\frac{3}{2}]$, we prove that for any $\sim|A|^{-1}$-separated set $A\subset[1,2]$ and $\delta=|A|^{-\alpha}$, we…
By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if $A \subset [1,2]$ is a $(\delta,\sigma)$-set, with $|A| = \delta^{-\sigma},$ then…
New lower bounds involving sum, difference, product, and ratio sets for $A\subset \C$ are given.
In this paper, we provide estimates for the additive discretized energy of \[\sum_{c\in C} |\{(a_1, a_2, b_1, b_2)\in A^2\times B^2: |(a_1 +cb_1) - (a_2 + cb_2)|\le \delta\}|_{\delta},\] that depend on non-concentration conditions of the…
We prove that for some universal $c$, a non-collinear set of $N>\frac{1}{c}$ points in the Euclidean plane determines at least $c \frac{N}{\log N}$ distinct areas of triangles with one vertex at the origin, as well as at least $c…
We make progress on two interrelated problems at the intersection of geometric measure theory, additive combinatorics and harmonic analysis: the discretised sum-product problem, and the dimension of Furstenberg sets. Along the way, we…
The main result of this paper is the following: for all $b \in \mathbb Z$ there exists $k=k(b)$ such that \[ \max \{ |A^{(k)}|, |(A+u)^{(k)}| \} \geq |A|^b, \] for any finite $A \subset \mathbb Q$ and any non-zero $u \in \mathbb Q$. Here,…
For a bivariate $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]\setminus (\mathbb{R}[x] \cup \mathbb{R}[y])$, our first result shows that for all finite $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $|P(A,A)|\geq \alpha|A|^{5/4}$ with $\alpha =\alpha(\mathrm{deg} P) \in…
Let $0 < \beta \leq \alpha < 1$ and $\kappa > 0$. I prove that there exists $\eta > 0$ such that the following holds for every pair of Borel sets $A,B \subset \mathbb{R}$ with $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} A = \alpha$ and $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} B =…
New lower bounds involving sum, difference, product, and ratio sets for a set $A\subset \C$ are given. The estimates involving the sum set match, up to constants, the one obtained by Solymosi for the reals and are obtained by generalising…
We isolate conditions on the relative size of sets of natural numbers $A,B$ that guarantee a nonempty intersection $\Delta(A)\cap\Delta(B)\ne\emptyset$ of the corresponding sets of distances. Such conditions apply to a large class of zero…
Let n points be taken at random on a circle of unit circumference and clockwise ordered. Uniform spacings are defined as the clockwise arc-lengths between the successive points from this sample. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior…
In this paper we prove new bounds for sums of convex or concave functions. Specifically, we prove that for all $A,B \subseteq \mathbb R$ finite sets, and for all $f,g$ convex or concave functions, we have $$|A + B|^{38}|f(A) + g(B)|^{38}…
Let $X,X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be i.i.d. mean zero random vectors with values in a separable Banach space $B$, $S_n=X_1+\cdots+X_n$ for $n\ge1$, and assume $\{c_n:n\ge1\}$ is a suitably regular sequence of constants. Furthermore, let…
In the paper, we generalize the Arzel\`a-Ascoli theorem in the setting of uniform spaces. At first, we recall well-known facts and theorems coming from monographs of Kelley and Willard. The main part of the paper introduces the notion of…
We provide two proofs of the compactness theorem for extensions of first-order logic based on team semantics. First, we build upon L\"uck's ultraproduct construction for team semantics and prove a suitable version of {\L}o\'s' Theorem.…
