In this paper we start to investigate a new body of questions in additive combinatorics. The fundamental Cauchy--Davenport theorem gives a lower bound on the size of a sumset A+B for subsets of the cyclic group Zp of order p (p prime), and…

The classical Cauchy-Davenport theorem implies the lower bound n+1 for the number of distinct subsums that can be formed from a sequence of n elements of the cyclic group Z_p (when p is prime and n<p). We generalize this theorem to a…

We prove a version of the Cauchy-Davenport theorem for general linear maps. For subsets $A,B$ of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$, the classical Cauchy-Davenport theorem gives a lower bound for the size of the sumset $A+B$ in terms of the…

Let $\mathbb{A} = (A, +)$ be a (possibly non-commutative) semigroup. For $Z \subseteq A$ we define $Z^\times := Z \cap \mathbb A^\times$, where $\mathbb A^\times$ is the set of the units of $\mathbb{A}$, and $$\gamma(Z) := \sup_{z_0 \in…

Various lower bounds are established for the entropy of sums, products and their combinations. First, we derive a prime-field analogue of a version of the entropy power inequality established by Tao over torsion-free groups. Next, we prove…

The classical Cauchy--Davenport inequality gives a lower bound for the size of the sum of two subsets of ${\mathbb Z}_p$, where $p$ is a prime. Our main aim in this paper is to prove a considerable strengthening of this inequality, where we…

Let $p$ a large enough prime number. When $A$ is a subset of $\mathbb{F}_p\smallsetminus\{0\}$ of cardinality $|A|> (p+1)/3$, then an application of Cauchy-Davenport Theorem gives $\mathbb{F}_p\smallsetminus\{0\}\subset A(A+A)$. In this…

Additive combinatorics asks for lower bounds on sumsets and restricted sumsets over finite fields. Central examples are the Cauchy-Davenport theorem and the Erd\H{o}s-Heilbronn conjecture. In this note, we develop Das's linear algebraic…

We generalize the Davenport transform and use it to prove that, for a (possibly non-commutative) cancellative semigroup $\mathbb A = (A, +)$ and non-empty subsets $X,Y$ of $A$ such that the subsemigroup generated by $Y$ is commutative, we…

In this article, we use the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz to give new proofs of the Cauchy-Davenport, the Dias da Silva-Hamidoune and to generalize a previous addition theorem of the author. Precisely, this last result proves that for a set…

It is proven that a conjecture of Tao (2010) holds true for log-concave random variables on the integers: For every $n \geq 1$, if $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ are i.i.d. integer-valued, log-concave random variables, then $$ H(X_1+\cdots+X_{n+1}) \geq…

We consider vanishing properties of exponential sums of the Liouville function $\lambda$ of the form $$ \lim_{H\to\infty}\limsup_{X\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log X}\sum_{m\leq X}\frac{1}{m}\sup_{\alpha\in C}\bigg|\frac{1}{H}\sum_{h\leq…

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…

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 $A'$…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be an infinite dimensional Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the C*-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $\mathcal{H}$, equipped with the operator-norm. By improving the Brown-Pearcy construction,…

Chebotar\"ev proved that every minor of a discrete Fourier matrix of prime order is nonzero. We prove a generalization of this result that includes analogues for discrete cosine and discrete sine matrices as special cases. We establish…

Given two subsets $A, B \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p$ and a binary relation $\mathcal{R} \subseteq A \times B$, the restricted sumset of $A, B$ with respect to $\mathcal{R}$ is defined as $A +_{\mathcal{R}} B = \{ a+b \colon (a,b) \notin…

A Tauberian theorem deduces an asymptotic for the partial sums of a sequence of non-negative real numbers from analytic properties of an associated Dirichlet series. Tauberian theorems appear in a tremendous variety of applications, ranging…

In this paper, we provide new results about an invariance of $p$-harmonic functions under boundary perturbations by using tug-of-war with noise; a probabilistic interpretation of $p$-harmonic functions introduced by Peres-Sheffield in…

In 2017 Tao proposed a variant Sarnak's M\"{o}bius disjointness conjecture with logarithmic averaging: For any zero entropy dynamical system $(X,T)$, $\frac{1}{\log N} \sum_{n=1} ^N \frac{f(T^n x) \mu (n)}{n}= o(1)$ for every $f\in…
