Freiman homomorphisms on sparse random sets

  • 1. ROR icon University of Oxford

Abstract

A result of Fiz Pontiveros shows that if A is a random subset of ℤ_N where each element is chosen independently with probability N^(−1/2+o(1))⁠, then with high probability every Freiman homomorphism defined on A can be extended to a Freiman homomorphism on the whole of ℤ_N⁠. In this paper, we improve the bound to CN^(−2/3)(logN)^(1/3)⁠, which is best possible up to the constant factor.
