Abstract

A subset S of an abelian group G is called 3-AP free if it does not contain a three term arithmetic progression. Moreover, S is called complete 3-AP free, if it is maximal w.r.t. set inclusion. One of the most central problems in additive combinatorics is to determine the maximal size of a 3-AP free set, which is necessarily complete. In this paper we are interested in the minimum size of complete 3-AP free sets. We define and study saturation w.r.t. 3-APs and present constructions of small complete 3-AP free sets and 3-AP saturating sets for several families of vector spaces and cyclic groups.
向量空间和其他阿贝尔群中的完全3项等差数列自由小集
如果阿贝尔群G的子集S不包含三个等差数列,则称为3-AP自由子集S。另外,如果S是最大的w.r.t.集合包含,则称为完全3-AP自由。加性组合学中最核心的问题之一是确定一个3-AP自由集合的最大大小,该集合必须是完全的。本文主要研究3-AP完全自由集的最小尺寸问题。我们定义并研究了3-AP的饱和,给出了若干向量空间族和循环群的小完全3-AP自由集和3-AP饱和集的构造。
