Sum-product phenomena in F_p: a brief introduction
These notes arose from my Cambridge Part III course on Additive Combinatorics, given in Lent Term 2009.

| Tóm tắt: | These notes arose from my Cambridge Part III course on Additive Combinatorics, given in Lent Term 2009. The aim was to understand the simplest proof of the Bourgain-Glibichuk-Konyagin bounds for exponential sums over subgroups. As a byproduct one obtains a clean proof of the Bourgain-Katz-Tao theorem on the sum-product phenomenon in F_p. The arguments are essentially extracted from a paper of Bourgain, and I benefitted very much from being in receipt of unpublished course notes of Elon Lindenstrauss. No originality is claimed. |
