  1. Sumset

    In additive combinatorics, the sumset (also called the Minkowski sum) of two subsets A {\displaystyle A} and B {\displaystyle B} of an abelian group G {\displaystyle G} (written additively) is defined to be the set of all sums of an element from A {\displaystyle A} with an element from B {\displaystyle B} . That is, A + B = { a + b : a ∈ A , b ∈ B } . {\displaystyle A+B=\{a+b:a\in A,b\in B\}.} The n {\displaystyle n} -fold iterated sumset of A {\displaystyle A} is n A = A + ⋯ + A , {\displaystyle nA=A+\cdots +A,} where there are n {\displaystyle n} summands. Many of the questions and results of additive combinatorics and additive number theory can be phrased in terms of sumsets. For example, Lagrange's four-square theorem can be written succinctly in the form 4 ◻ = N , {\displaystyle 4\,\Box =\mathbb {N} ,} where ◻ {\displaystyle \Box } is the set of square numbers. A subject that has received a fair amount of study is that of sets with small doubling, where the size of the set A + A {\displaystyle A+A} is small (compared to the size of A {\displaystyle A} ); see for example Freiman's theorem.
