Some questions in combinatorial and elementary number theory

Tringali, Salvatore 26 November 2013 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis is divided into two parts. Part I is about additive combinatorics. Part II deals with questions in elementary number theory. In Chapter 1, we generalize the Davenport transform to prove that if si S\mathbb A=(A, +)S is acancellative semigroup (either abelian or not) and SX, YS are non-empty subsets of SAS such that the subsemigroup generated by SYS is abelian, then SS|X+Y|\gc\min(\gamma(Y, |X|+|Y|-I)SS, where for SZ\subsetcq AS we let S\gamma(Z):=\sup_{z_0\in Z^\times}\in f_(z_0\nc z\inZ) (vm ord)(z-z_0)S. This implies an extension of Chowla's and Pillai's theorems for cyclic groups and a stronger version of an addition theorem by Hamidoune and Karolyi for arbitrary groups. In Chapter 2, we show that if S(A, +) is a cancellative semigroup and SX, Y\subsetcq AS then SS|X+Y|\gc\min(\gammaX+Y), |X|+|Y|-I)SS. This gives a generalization of Kemperman's inequality for torsion free groups and a stronger version of the Hamidoune-Karolyi theorem. In Chapter 3, we generalize results by Freiman et al. by proving that if S(A,\ctlot)S is a linearly orderable semigroup and SSS is a finite subset of SAS generating a non-abelian subsemigroup, then S|S^2-\gc3|S|-2S. In Chapter 4, we prove results related to conjecture by Gyory and Smyth on the sets SR_k^\pm(a,b)S of all positive integers SnS such that Sn^kS divides Sa^a \pmb^nS for fixed integers SaS, SbS and SkS with Sk\gc3S, S|ab|\gc2Set S\gcd(a,b) = 1S. In particular, we show that SR_k^pm(a,b)S is finite if Sk\gc\max(|a|.|b|)S. In Chapter 5, we consider a question on primes and divisibility somchow related to Znam's problem and the Agoh-Giuga conjecture

Some questions in combinatorial and elementary number theory / Quelques questions de théories combinatoire et élémentaire des nombres

Tringali, Salvatore 26 November 2013 (has links)
Cette thèse est divisée en deux parties : la partie I traite de combinatoire additive, la partie II s’est portée sur des questions de théorie élémentaire des nombres. Dans le chapitre 1, on généralise la transformée de Davenport pour prouver que si S\mathbb A=(A, +)S est un demi-groupe cancellatif (éventuellement non commutatif) et SX, YS sont des sous-ensembles non vides de SAS tels que le sous semi groupe engendré par SYS est commutatif, on a SS|X+Y|\gc\min(\gamma(Y, |X|+|Y|-I)SS, où S\gamma(\ctlot)S dénote la constante de Cauchy-Davenport d’un ensemble. On en obtient une extension des théorèmes de Chowla et Pillai pour les groupes cycliques et une version plus forte d’un théorème additif de Karolyi et Hamidoune. Dans le chapitre 2, on montre que si S(A,+)S est un semi-groupe cancellatif et si SX, Y\subsetcq AS alors SS|X+Y|\gc\min(\gammaX+Y), |X|+|Y|-I)SS. Cela donne une généralisation de l’inégalité de Kemperman pour les groupes sans torsion et une version plus forte du théorème d’Hamidoune-Karolyi. Dans le chapitre 3, on généralise des résultats par Freiman et al., en prouvant que si S(A,\ctlot)S est un semi-groupe linéairement ordonnable et SSS est un sous-ensemble fini de SAS engendrant un sous-semi-groupe non-abélien, alors S|S^2-\gc3|S|-2S. Dans le chapitre 4, on prouve des résultats liés à une conjecture par Gyorgy et Smyth sur la finitude des entiers Sn\gc1S tels que Sn^kS divise Sa^a \pmb^nS pour des entiers fixés SaS, SbS et SkS avec Sk\gc3S, S|ab|\gc2Set S\gcd(a,b) = 1S. Enfin, dans le chapitre 5, on considère une question de divisibilité dans les entiers, en quelque sorte liée au problème de Znam et à la conjecture d’Agoh-Giuga / This thesis is divided into two parts.
