A robust version of Freiman's 3 k –4 Theorem and applications

Abstract We prove a robust version of Freiman's 3 k – 4 theorem on the restricted sumset A + Γ B , which applies when the doubling constant is at most (3+ $\sqrt{5}$ )/2 in general and at most 3 in the special case when A = − B . As applications, we derive robust results with other types of ass...

Summary:Abstract We prove a robust version of Freiman's 3 k – 4 theorem on the restricted sumset A + Γ B , which applies when the doubling constant is at most (3+ $\sqrt{5}$ )/2 in general and at most 3 in the special case when A = − B . As applications, we derive robust results with other types of assumptions on popular sums, and structure theorems for sets satisfying almost equalities in discrete and continuous versions of the Riesz–Sobolev inequality.
