We say that A is sum-free if there is no solution of the equation x + y = z, with x, y, z belonging to the set A. In this paper we shall characterise the largest possible sum-free subsets of G in case the order of G is only divisible by primes which are congruent to 1 modulo 3. The result is based on a recent result of Ben Green and Imre Ruzsa.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-12-06T08:54:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "finite abelian group", "sum-free set", "sum-free subsets", "ben green", "imre ruzsa" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......2374B" } } }
