Abstract

It is proved that any subset A of (ℤ/2ℤ)n, having k elements, such that |A+A|=c|A| (with c<4), is contained in a subgroup of order at most u-1k where u = u(c) > 0 is an explicit function of c which does not depend on k nor on n. This improves by a radically different method the corresponding bounds deduced from a more general result of I. Z. Ruzsa.
