We verify several special cases of the relevant conjectures; in particular, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for a set A to tile the integers if A is a direct sum of cyclic subsets.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-09-16T23:03:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11A99" ], "keywords": [ "polynomials", "fugledes spectral set conjecture", "translates", "number-theoretic problems", "cyclic subsets" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math......9204K" } } }
