Optimal bounds for iterated sumsets with
Let be a subset of the integers, with iterated sumsets , and suppose that .
Optimal sumset bounds conjecture. Every such set satisfies
The example attains both bounds, so the conjecture asserts that the displayed estimates are optimal for finite sets of integers with . The source gives strong evidence but no proof or resolution.
