Abstract

Improving upon the results of Freiman and Candela-Serra-Spiegel, we show that for a non-empty subset A⊆Fp with p prime and |A|<0.0045p, (i) if |A+A|<2.59|A|−3 and |A|>100, then A is contained in an arithmetic progression of size |A+A|−|A|+1, and (ii) if |A−A|<2.6|A|−3, then A is contained in an arithmetic progression of size |A−A|−|A|+1.The improvement comes from using the properties of higher energies.
