In this paper, we study the binomial sum $S_{n}(q):=% \overset{n}{\underset{k=0}{\sum }}a_{k}\binom{n}{k}\left( 1-q\right) ^{k}q^{n-k}$ for a given sequence $\left( a_{n}\right) $ of real or complex numbers. We express $S_{n}(q)$ in…

We show that if A is a set having small subtractive doubling in an abelian group, that is |A-A|< K|A|, then there is a polynomially large subset B of A-A so that the additive energy of B is large than (1/K)^{1 - \epsilon) where epsilon is a…

The lambda-dilate of a set A is lambda*A={lambda a : a \in A}. We give an asymptotically sharp lower bound on the size of sumsets of the form lambda_1*A+...+lambda_k*A for arbitrary integers lambda_1,...,lambda_k and integer sets A. We also…

If $s$ is a positive integer and $A$ is a set of positive integers, we say that $B$ is an $s$-divisor of $A$ if $\sum_{b\in B} b\mid s\sum_{a\in A} a$. We study the maximal number of $k$-subsets of an $n$-element set that can be…

A hyperbolic set on a compact manifold M, satisfies the property: given two of your any points p and q, such that for all positive \epsilon>0, there is a trajectory in the hyperbolic set from a point \epsilon-close to p to a point…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…

Let A and B be subsets of an elementary abelian 2-group G, none of which are contained in a coset of a proper subgroup. Extending onto potentially distinct summands a result of Hennecart and Plagne, we show that if |A+B|<|A|+|B|, then…

Let G be an arbitrary Abelian group and let A be a finite subset of G. A has small additive doubling if |A+A| < K|A| for some K>0. These sets were studied in papers of G.A. Freiman, Y. Bilu, I. Ruzsa, M.C.--Chang, B. Green and T.Tao. In the…

The sumset is one of the most basic and central objects in additive number theory. Many of the most important problems (such as Goldbach's conjecture and Fermat's Last theorem) can be formulated in terms of the sumset $S + S = \{x+y :…

Let $A$ be a subset of primes up to $x$. If we assume $A$ is well-distributed (in the Siegel-Walfisz sense) in any arithmetic progressions to moduli $q\leqslant(\log x)^c$ for any $c>0$, then the sumset $A+A$ has density 1/2 in the natural…

A subset $X$ of an Abelian group $G$ is called $semiaf\!fine$ if for every $x,y,z\in X$ the set $\{x+y-z,x-y+z\}$ intersects $X$. We prove that a subset $X$ of an Abelian group $G$ is semiaffine if and only if one of the following…

This papers deals with congruence subgroups of convex cocompact subgroups of PSL2(Z). We examine the behaviour of the resonance spectrum when the congruence parameter q goes to infinity: we show a lower bound for the counting function in…

A subset $A$ of an abelian group $G$ is sequenceable if there is an ordering $(a_1, \ldots, a_k)$ of its elements such that the partial sums $(s_0, s_1, \ldots, s_k)$, given by $s_0 = 0$ and $s_i = \sum_{j=1}^i a_i$ for $1 \leq i \leq k$,…

Polynomial relations between the generators of $q$--deformed Heisenberg algebra invariant under the quantization and $q$-deformation are discovered. One of the examples of such relations is the following: if two elements $a$ and $b$,…

We investigate the size of subspaces in sumsets and show two main results. First, if A is a subset of F_2^n with density at least 1/2 - o(n^{-1/2}) then A+A contains a subspace of co-dimension 1. Secondly, if A is a subset of F_2^n with…

For a finite abelian group $G$ with subsets $A$ and $B$, the sumset $AB$ is $\{ab \mid a\in A, b \in B\}$. A fundamental problem in additive combinatorics is to find a lower bound for the cardinality of $AB$ in terms of the cardinalities of…
