New results on sums and products in ℝ

Resumo

We improve previous sum–product estimates in ℝ; namely, we prove the inequality max{|A + A|, |AA|} ≫ |A|^4/3+c, where c is any number less than 5/9813. New lower bounds for sums of sets with small product set are found. We also obtain results on the additive and multiplicative energies; in particular, we improve a result of Balog and Wooley.
