This paper gives an improved sum-product estimate for subsets of a finite field whose order is not prime. It is shown, under certain conditions, that $$\max\{|A+A|,|A\cdot{A}|\}\gg{\frac{|A|^{12/11}}{(\log_2|A|)^{5/11}}}.$$ This new…

This paper improves on a sum-product estimate obtained by Katz and Shen for subsets of a finite field whose order is not prime.

We prove a Szemer\'edi-Trotter type theorem and a sum-product estimate in the setting of finite quasifields. These estimates generalize results of the fourth author, of Garaev, and of Vu. We generalize results of Gyarmati and S\'ark\"ozy on…

Let $A$ be a subset of a finite field $F := \Z/q\Z$ for some prime $q$. If $|F|^\delta < |A| < |F|^{1-\delta}$ for some $\delta > 0$, then we prove the estimate $|A+A| + |A.A| \geq c(\delta) |A|^{1+\eps}$ for some $\eps = \eps(\delta) > 0$.…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime and let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field consisting of $q$ elements. We establish new explicit estimates on Gauss sums of the form $S_n(a) = \sum_{x\in \mathbb{F}_q}\psi_a(x^n)$, where $\psi_a$ is a…

We improve the exponent in the finite field sum-product problem from $11/9$ to $5/4$, improving the results of Rudnev, Shakan and Shkredov. That is, we show that if $A\subset \mathbb{F}_p$ has cardinality $|A|\ll p^{1/2}$ then \[…

We study a Szemer\'edi-Trotter type theorem in finite fields. We then use this theorem to obtain an improved sum-product estimate in finite fields.

Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the field of residue classes modulo a prime number $p$ and let $A$ be a nonempty subset of $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this paper we show that if $|A|\preceq p^{0.5}$, then \[ \max\{|A\pm A|,|AA|\}\succeq|A|^{13/12};\] if…

This note improves the best known exponent 1/12 in the prime field sum-product inequality (for small sets) to 1/11, modulo a logarithmic factor.

We prove an analogue of the prime number theorem for finite fields.

Let $A$ be a finite subset of $\ffield$, the field of Laurent series in $1/t$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We show that for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists a constant $C$ dependent only on $\epsilon$ and $q$ such that…

We prove an analogue of a result by Goldston, Pintz and Yildirim for small gaps between primes that split completely in an abelian number field. We prove both a conditional result assuming the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture, and an…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $s \geq 3$ be a natural number and let $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p$ be a non-empty set satisfying $|A| \ll p^{1/2}$. Denoting $J_s(A)$ to be the number of solutions to the system of equations \[ \sum_{i=1}^{s} (x_i -…

This is an expository survey on recent sum-product results in finite fields. We present a number of sum-product or "expander" results that say that if $|A| > p^{2/3}$ then some set determined by sums and product of elements of $A$ is nearly…

Romanov proved that a positive proportion of the integers have a representation as a sum of a prime and a power of an arbitrary fixed positive integer. Rieger proved the analogous result for number fields. We will determine an explicit…

We propose an equivalent formula for the higher-order derivatives used in the study of Generalized Almost Perfect Nonlinear functions over an arbitrary finite field of characteristic $p$. The result is obtained by counting the number of…

Let $K$ be a number field and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$, the reduction $(G \bmod \mathfrak p)$ generates a well-defined subgroup of the multiplicative group…

In this paper we prove some results on sum-product estimates over arbitrary finite fields. More precisely, we show that for sufficiently small sets $A\subset \mathbb{F}_q$ we have \[|(A-A)^2+(A-A)^2|\gg |A|^{1+\frac{1}{21}}.\] This can be…

We slightly improve Garaev's recent sum-product estimate largely by using Plunneke's inequality a little more efficiently. We improve the exponent from 15/14 to 14/13.

For an algebraic number $\alpha$ we consider the orders of the reductions of $\alpha$ in finite fields. In the case where $\alpha$ is an integer, it is known by the work on Artin's primitive root conjecture that the order is "almost always…
