In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…
This is a survey of the diversity of problems in additive number theory. Equity requires the consideration of less currently popular problems, and suggests their inclusion in the additive canon. Of particular interest are problems about the…
We reduce the principal problem of Additive Number Theory of whether an infinite sequence of integers constitutes a finite basis for the integers to a Diophantine problem involving the difference set of the sequence, by proving a formula…
This paper describes problems concerning the range of cardinalities of sumsets and restricted sumsets of finite subsets of the integers and finite subsets of ordered abelian groups.
The aim of the present article is to explore the possibilities of representing positive integers as sums of other positive integers and highlight certain fundamental connections between their multiplicative and additive properties. In…
The main purpose of this survey is to introduce an inexperienced reader to additive prime number theory and some related branches of analytic number theory. We state the main problems in the field, sketch their history and the basic…
This is a survey of old and new problems and results in additive number theory.
The aim of this paper is threefold: a) Finding new direct and inverse results in the additive number theory concerning Minkowski sums of dilates. b) Finding a connection between the above results and some direct and inverse problems in the…
We give an overview on recent results concerning additive unit representations. Furthermore the solutions of some open questions are included. The central problem is whether and how certain rings are (additively) generated by their units.…
For every positive integer h, the representation function of order h associated to a subset A of the integers or, more generally, of any group or semigroup X, counts the number of ways an element of X can be written as the sum (or product,…
The main purpose of this paper is to propose some interesting number theory problems related to the Legendre's symbol and the two-term exponential sums.
Shnirel'man's inequality and Shnirel'man's basis theorem are fundamental results about sums of sets of positive integers in additive number theory. It is proved that these results are inherently order-theoretic and extend to partially…
In this article we present method of solving some additive problems with primes. The method may be employed to the Goldbach-Euler conjecture and the twin primes conjecture. The presented method also makes it possible to obtain some…
We prove some general recursions for the numbers of representations of positive integers as a sum x+y, x in X, y in Y, where X,Y are increasing sequences. In particular, we obtain recursions for the number of the Goldbach, Lemoine-Levy,…
This is a survey on the finite basis problem for varieties of algebraic systems. Our exposition is in two directions: (i) We give numerous examples of varieties which are not finitely based. (ii) We give examples of important varieties with…
Given a primitive collection of vectors in the integer lattice, we count the number of ways it can be extended to a basis by vectors with sup-norm bounded by $T$, producing an asymptotic estimate as $T \to \infty$. This problem can be…
Partially or totally unsolved questions in number theory and geometry especially, such as coloration problems, elementary geometric conjectures, partitions, generalized periods of a number, length of a generalized period, arithmetic and…
In contrast to finite arithmetic configurations, relatively little is known about which infinite patterns can be found in every set of natural numbers with positive density. Building on recent advances showing infinite sumsets can be found,…
We introduce and study non-uniform expansions of real numbers, given by two non-integer bases.
In this talk we introduce several topics in combinatorial number theory which are related to groups; the topics include combinatorial aspects of covers of groups by cosets, and also restricted sumsets and zero-sum problems on abelian…
