The logarithmic additive-energy conjecture for subsets of squares

About 20 years old · traced to

For a set E⊂{12,…,N2}E\subset\{1^2,\ldots,N^2\} of squares, let rE+E(m)r_{E+E}(m) count representations of mm as a sum of two elements of EE. The logarithmic energy conjecture. There exists a constant C>0C>0 such that

∑mrE+E2(m)≪∣E∣2(log⁡N)C.\sum_m r_{E+E}^2(m)\ll |E|^2(\log N)^C.

The source states this as the corresponding conjecture for arbitrary subsets of the first NN squares and leaves it open.
