We study the number of $k$-element sets $A \subset \{1,\ldots,N\}$ with $|A + A| \leq K|A|$ for some (fixed) $K > 0$. Improving results of the first author and of Alon, Balogh, Samotij and the second author, we determine this number up to a…
For a subset $A$ of an abelian group $G$, given its size $|A|$, its doubling $\kappa=|A+A|/|A|$, and a parameter $s$ which is small compared to $|A|$, we study the size of the largest sumset $A+A'$ that can be guaranteed for a subset $A'$…
We prove a sharp bound for the minimal doubling of a small measurable subset of a compact connected Lie group. Namely, let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group of dimension $d_G$, we show that for for all measurable subsets $A$, we have…
We investigate the structure of finite sets $A \subseteq \Z$ where $|A+A|$ is large. We present a combinatorial construction that serves as a counterexample to natural conjectures in the pursuit of an "anti-Freiman" theory in additive…
We study the extent to which sets A in Z/NZ, N prime, resemble sets of integers from the additive point of view (``up to Freiman isomorphism''). We give a direct proof of a result of Freiman, namely that if |A + A| < K|A| and |A| < c(K)N…
A subset $C$ of an abelian group $G$ is a minimal additive complement to $W \subseteq G$ if $C + W = G$ and if $C' + W \neq G$ for any proper subset $C' \subset C$. In this paper, we study which sets of integers arise as minimal additive…
In this paper, we study the linear structure of sets $A \subset \mathbb{F}_2^n$ with doubling constant $\sigma(A)<2$, where $\sigma(A):=\frac{|A+A|}{|A|}$. In particular, we show that $A$ is contained in a small affine subspace. We also…
We are discussing the theorem about the volume of a set $A$ of $Z^n$ having a small doubling property $|2A| < Ck, k=|A|$ and oher problems of Structure Theory of Set Addition (Additive Combinatorics).
We prove a query complexity variant of the weak polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture in the following form. For any $\epsilon > 0$, a set $A \subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ with doubling $K$ has a subset of size at least $K^{-\frac{4}{\epsilon}}|A|$…
In this paper we prove that every set $A\subset\mathbb{Z}$ satisfying the inequality $\sum_{x}\min(1_A*1_A(x),t)\le(2+\delta)t|A|$ for $t$ and $\delta$ in suitable ranges, then $A$ must be very close to an arithmetic progression. We use…
We prove a structural result for sets of integers with doubling at most $4 + \delta$, with $\delta>0$ sufficiently small. This generalises earlier work of Eberhard--Green--Manners which dealt with sets of integers with doubling strictly…
Let $\Lambda$ be a lattice in a second countable, locally compact abelian group $G$ with annihilator $\Lambda^{\perp} \subseteq \widehat{G}$. We investigate the validity of the following statement: For every $\eta$ in the Feichtinger…
Following the sum-product paradigm, we prove that for a set $B$ with polynomial growth, the product set $B.B$ cannot contain large subsets with size of order $|B|^2$ with small doubling. It follows that the additive energy of $B.B$ is…
Improving upon the results of Freiman and Candela-Serra-Spiegel, we show that for a non-empty subset $A\subseteq\mathbb F_p$ with $p$ prime and $|A|<0.0045p$, (i) if $|A+A|<2.59|A|-3$ and $|A|>100$, then $A$ is contained in an arithmetic…
We prove that if there are $\mathfrak c$ incomparable selective ultrafilters then, for every infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$, there exists a group topology on the free Abelian group of cardinality $\kappa$…
We prove that a set is K-trivial if and only if it is not weakly ML-cuppable. Further, we show that a set below zero jump is K-trivial if and only if it is not ML-cuppable. These results settle a question of Ku\v{c}era, who introduced both…
The aim of this paper is to present a complete description of the structure of subsets S of an orderable group G satisfying |S^2| = 3|S|-2 and <S> is non-abelian.
We give a comprehensive description of the sets $A$ in finite cyclic groups such that $|2A|<\frac94|A|$; namely, we show that any set with this property is densely contained in a (one-dimensional) coset progression. This improves earlier…
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 show that if $K\ge1$ is a parameter and $S$ is a finite symmetric subset of a group containing the identity such $|S^{2n}|\le K|S^n|$ for some integer $n\ge2K^2$, then $|S^{3n}|\le\exp(\exp(O(K^2)))|S^n|$. Such a result was previously…
