In 1979, Ruzsa proved that there exists a constant c such that for any additive function f, μ(x) ≤ cv(x^2) + cf, where cf is a constant depending only on f. Denote by Raf the least such constant c. We cMl Raf Ruzsa's constant on additive functions. In this paper, we prove that Raf≤ 20.展开更多
For A Zm and n ∈ Zm, let σA(n) be the number of solutions of equation n =x + y, x, y ∈ A.

Given a positive integer m, let Rm be the least positive integer r such that there exists a set A Zm with A + A = Zm and σA(n) ≤ r. Recently, Chen Yonggao proved that all Rm ≤ 288. In this paper, we obtain new upper bounds of some special type Rkp2.展开更多

We show that this shares many properties with the size of subsets of a finite group, for instance we can obtain equivalent results on the Ruzsa distance and product free sets. In particular, if G has infinitely many finite index subgroups, then it has subsets S of measure arbitrarily close to 1/2 with square S2 having measure less than 1. We also examine properties of the Ruzsa distance on the set of finite index subgroups of an infinite group, whereupon it becomes a genuine metric.展开更多
