An approximate structure theorem for small sumsets
Let A and B be randomly chosen s-subsets of the first n integers such that their sumset A+B has size at most Ks. We show that asymptotically almost surely A and B are almost fully contained in arithmetic progressions PA and PB with the same common difference and cardinalities approximately Ks/2. The...

| Sumario: | Let A and B be randomly chosen s-subsets of the first n integers such that their sumset A+B has size at most Ks. We show that asymptotically almost surely A and B are almost fully contained in arithmetic progressions PA and PB with the same common difference and cardinalities approximately Ks/2. The result holds for s=¿(log3n) and 2=K=o(s/log3n). Our main tool is an asymmetric version of the method of hypergraph containers which was recently used by Campos to prove the result in the special case A=B. |
