Uncertainty conjecture for supports in the finite affine plane
Uncertainty conjecture for supports in the finite affine plane
Let be prime, let be nonzero, and write
For an integer , let and .
Finite-plane uncertainty conjecture. One has
unless at least one of and is a dense subset of a union of a small number of proper cosets of the corresponding group. Perhaps it suffices to assume that neither nor can be covered by fewer than cosets.
This conjecture aims to strengthen Meshulam's uncertainty estimate for the elementary abelian group of rank , distinguishing the exceptional configurations associated with unions of proper cosets. The source presents it as a conjecture and gives no resolution.
