Abstract
In their seminal paper Erd\H{o}s and Szemer\'edi formulated conjectures on the size of sumset and product set of integers. The strongest form of their conjecture is about sums and products along the edges of a graph. In this paper we show that this strong form of the Erd\H{o}s-Szemer\'edi conjecture does not hold. We give upper and lower bounds on the cardinalities of sumsets, product sets and ratio sets along the edges of graphs.
期刊介绍:
Publicacions Matemàtiques is a research mathematical journal published by the Department of Mathematics of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona since 1976 (before 1988 named Publicacions de la Secció de Matemàtiques, ISSN: 0210-2978 print, 2014-4369 online). Two issues, constituting a single volume, are published each year. The journal has a large circulation being received by more than two hundred libraries all over the world. It is indexed by Mathematical Reviews, Zentralblatt Math., Science Citation Index, SciSearch®, ISI Alerting Services, COMPUMATH Citation Index®, and it participates in the Euclid Project and JSTOR. Free access is provided to all published papers through the web page.
Publicacions Matemàtiques is a non-profit university journal which gives special attention to the authors during the whole editorial process. In 2019, the average time between the reception of a paper and its publication was twenty-two months, and the average time between the acceptance of a paper and its publication was fifteen months. The journal keeps on receiving a large number of submissions, so the authors should be warned that currently only articles with excellent reports can be accepted.
