Complementary sets of finite sets
Given an additive group \(G\) and \({\mathcal A}\subset G\), a set \({\mathcal S}\subset G\) is called complementary to \(\mathcal A\) in \(G\) if \({\mathcal A}+{\mathcal S}=\{a+s:a\in{\mathcal A}, s\in{\mathcal S}\}=G\). In the paper the groups \(\mathbb Z\), \({\mathbb Z}/(m{\mathbb Z})\), \(\mathbb R\), and \({\mathbb R}/{\mathbb Z}\) are considered, and some sufficient conditions for the existence of a complementary set \(\mathcal S\) with ``density not much larger than \(1/|{\mathcal A}|\) are given, where \(\mathcal A\) is finite. Some structural descriptions of complementary sets of small density which depend on approximation properties of elements of \(\mathcal A\) are also given.
