Experimental calculations suggest that the $h$-fold sumset sizes of 4-element sets of integers are concentrated at $h$ numbers that are differences of tetrahedral numbers. In this paper it is proved that these "popular" sumset sizes always…
For a finite set $A\subseteq \mathbb{Z}$, the $h$-fold sumset is $hA :=\{x_1+\dots+x_h:x_i\in A\}$. We interpret the beginning of the sequence of sumset sizes $(|hA|)_{h=1}^\infty$ in terms of the successive $L^1$-minima of a lattice…
We study the first occurrences of gaps between primes in the arithmetic progression (P): $r$, $r+q$, $r+2q$, $r+3q,\ldots,$ where $q$ and $r$ are coprime integers, $q>r\ge1$. The growth trend and distribution of the first-occurrence gap…
In this paper we give a different approach to determining the cardinality of $h$-fold sumsets $hA$ when $A\subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ has $d+2$ elements. This enables us to provide more general result with a shorter and simpler proof. We also…
The well known Three Gap Theorem states that there are at most three gap sizes in the sequence of fractional parts $\{\alpha n\}_{n<N}$ . It is known that if one averages over {\alpha}, the distribution becomes continuous. We present an…
The Three Gap Theorem states that for any $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ and $N \in \mathbb{N}$, the fractional parts of $\{ 0\alpha, 1\alpha, \dots, (N - 1)\alpha \}$ partition the unit circle into gaps of at most three distinct lengths. We prove…
The study of sums of finite sets of integers has mostly concentrated on sets with very small sumsets (Freiman's theorem and related work) and on sets with very large sumsets (Sidon sets and $B_h$-sets). This paper considers the full range…
The $h$-fold sumset of a set $A$ of integers is the set of all sums of $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. Let $(A_q)_{q=1}^{\infty}$ be a strictly decreasing sequence of sets of integers and let $A = \bigcap_{q=1}^{\infty} A_q$.…
Let $A$ be a subset of an additive abelian semigroup $S$ and let $hA$ be the $h$-fold sumset of $A$. The following question is considered: Let $(A_q)_{q=1}^{\infty}$ be a strictly decreasing sequence of sets in $S$ and let $A =…
The three gap theorem, also known as the Steinhaus conjecture or three distance theorem, states that the gaps in the fractional parts of $\alpha,2\alpha,\ldots, N\alpha$ take at most three distinct values. Motivated by a question of…
The classical Three Gap Theorem asserts that for a natural number n and a real number p, there are at most three distinct distances between consecutive elements in the subset of [0,1) consisting of the reductions modulo 1 of the first n…
Prime numbers appeared in contexts spanning statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics and dynamical systems. However, the mechanisms governing the irregularities observed in their sequence and linking them to physical systems remained…
For $s=3,4$, we prove the existence of arbitrarily long sequences of consecutive integers none of which is a sum of $s$ nonnegative $s$-th powers. More generally, we study the existence of gaps between the values $\leq N$ of diagonal forms…
We prove in Theorem $2.2$ that the multiplicatively closed subset generated by at most two elements in the set of natural numbers $\mathbb{N}$ has arbitrarily large gaps by explicitly constructing large integer intervals with known prime…
Consider a plane graph G, drawn with straight lines. For every pair a,b of vertices of G, we compare the shortest-path distance between a and b in G (with Euclidean edge lengths) to their actual distance in the plane. The worst-case ratio…
Let $hA$ denote the $h$-fold sumset of a subset $A$ of an abelian group. Resolving a problem of Nathanson, we show that for any prescribed permutations $\sigma_1, \ldots, \sigma_H \in \mathfrak{S}_n$, there exist finite subsets $A_1,…
Let $A$ be a set in an abelian group $G$. For integers $h,r \geq 1$ the generalized $h$-fold sumset, denoted by $h^{(r)}A$, is the set of sums of $h$ elements of $A$, where each element appears in the sum at most $r$ times. If…
Let $A=\{a_0,a_1,\ldots,a_{k-1}\}$ be a set of $k$ integers. For any integer $h\ge 1$ and any ordered $k$-tuple of positive integers $\mathbf{r}=(r_0,r_1,\ldots,r_{k-1})$, we define a general $h$-fold sumset, denoted by $h^{(\mathbf{r})}A$,…
For a natural number $N\geq 2$ and a real $\alpha$ such that $0 < \alpha \leq \sqrt{N}-1$, we define $I_\alpha:=[\alpha,\alpha+1]$ and $I_\alpha^-:=[\alpha,\alpha+1)$ and investigate the continued fraction map $T_\alpha:I_\alpha \to…
We provide large deviations estimates for the upper tail of the number of triangles in scale-free inhomogeneous random graphs where the degrees have power law tails with index $-\alpha, \alpha \in (1,2)$. We show that upper tail…
