Freiman's small-doubling conjecture for finite subsets of torsion-free groups
Freiman's small-doubling conjecture for finite subsets of torsion-free groups
Let be a finite subset of a torsion-free group, with . A progression is a finite geometric progression in the group. Freiman's conjecture. If
then is covered by a progression of length at most . This conjecture extends the -theorem from abelian additive combinatorics to torsion-free groups; the source gives no resolution of it.
