Abstract: Let K subset L be a field extension. Given K-subspaces A,B of L, we study the subspace spanned by the product set AB = {ab | a in A, b in B}. We obtain some lower bounds on the dimension of this subspace and on dim B^n in terms of dim A, dim B and n. This is achieved by establishing linear versions of constructions and results in additive number theory mainly due to Kemperman and Olson.
