We present a variety of new results on finite sets A of integers for which the sumset A+A is larger than the difference set A-A, so-called MSTD (more sums than differences) sets. First we show that there is, up to affine transformation, a…

Let $A$ be a set of finite integers, define $$A+A \ = \ \{a_1+a_2: a_1,a_2 \in A\}, \ \ \ A-A \ = \ \{a_1-a_2: a_1,a_2 \in A\},$$ and for non-negative integers $s$ and $d$ define $$sA-dA\ =\ \underbrace{A+\cdots+A}_{s}…

A more sums than differences (MSTD) set is a finite subset S of the integers such that |S+S| > |S-S|. We construct a new dense family of MSTD subsets of {0, 1, 2, ..., n-1}. Our construction gives Theta(2^n/n) MSTD sets, improving the…

A More Sums Than Difference (MSTD) set is a finite set of integers $A$ where the cardinality of its sumset, $A+A$, is greater than the cardinality of its difference set, $A-A$. Since addition is commutative while subtraction isn't, it was…

We review the basic theory of More Sums Than Differences (MSTD) sets, specifically their existence, simple constructions of infinite families, the proof that a positive percentage of sets under the uniform binomial model are MSTD but not if…

A More Sums Than Differences (MSTD, or sum-dominant) set is a finite set $A\subset \mathbb{Z}$ such that $|A+A|<|A-A|$. Though it was believed that the percentage of subsets of $\{0,...,n\}$ that are sum-dominant tends to zero, in 2006…

Let A be a finite subset of the integers or, more generally, of any abelian group, written additively. The set A has "more sums than differences" if |A+A|>|A-A|. A set with this property is called an MSTD set. This paper gives explicit…

We explicitly construct infinite families of MSTD (more sums than differences) sets. There are enough of these sets to prove that there exists a constant C such that at least C / r^4 of the 2^r subsets of {1,...,r} are MSTD sets; thus our…

A More Sums Than Differences (MSTD) set is a set $A$ for which $|A+A|>|A-A|$. Martin and O'Bryant proved that the proportion of MSTD sets in $\{0,1,\dots,n\}$ is bounded below by a positive number as $n$ goes to infinity. Iyer, Lazarev,…

A set $A$ is MSTD (more-sum-than-difference) or sum-dominant if $|A+A|>|A-A|$, and is RSD (restricted-sum dominant) if $|A\hat{+}A|>|A-A|$, where $A\hat{+}A$ is the set of sums of distinct elements in $A$. We study an interesting family of…

A more sums than differences (MSTD) set is a finite subset S of the integers such |S+S| > |S-S|. We show that the probability that a uniform random subset of {0, 1, ..., n} is an MSTD set approaches some limit rho > 4.28 x 10^{-4}. This…

A More Sums Than Differences (MSTD) set is a finite set of integers $A$ where the cardinality of its sumset, $A+A$, is greater than the cardinality of its difference set, $A-A$. We address a problem posed by Samuel Allen Alexander that asks…

A more sums than differences (MSTD) set $A$ is a subset of $\mathbb{Z}$ for which $|A+A| > |A-A|$. Martin and O'Bryant used probabilistic techniques to prove that a non-vanishing proportion of subsets of $\{1, \dots, n\}$ are MSTD as $n \to…

A finite set of integers $A$ is a sum-dominant (also called an More Sums Than Differences or MSTD) set if $|A+A| > |A-A|$. While almost all subsets of $\{0, \dots, n\}$ are not sum-dominant, interestingly a small positive percentage are. We…

Given a group $G$, we say that a set $A \subseteq G$ has more sums than differences (MSTD) if $|A+A| > |A-A|$, has more differences than sums (MDTS) if $|A+A| < |A-A|$, or is sum-difference balanced if $|A+A| = |A-A|$. A problem of recent…

A set $A$ is MSTD (more-sum-than-difference) if $|A+A|>|A-A|$. Though MSTD sets are rare, Martin and O'Bryant proved that there exists a positive constant lower bound for the proportion of MSTD subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots ,r\}$ as…

In an abelian group G, a more sums than differences (MSTD) set is a subset A of G such that |A+A|>|A-A|. We provide asymptotics for the number of MSTD sets in finite abelian groups, extending previous results of Nathanson. The proof…

We outline a general algorithm for verifying whether a subset of the integers is a more sum than differences (MSTD) set, also known as sum dominated sets, and give estimates on its computational complexity. We conclude with some numerical…

An MSTD set is a finite set of integers with more sums than differences. It is proved that, for infinitely many positive integers $k$, there are infinitely many affinely inequivalent MSTD sets of cardinality $k$. There are several related…

An MSTD set is a finite set with more pairwise sums than differences. $(\Upsilon,\Phi)$-ismorphisms are generalizations of Freiman isomorphisms to arbitrary linear forms. These generalized isomorphisms are used to prove that every finite…
