Abstract: We prove a continuous Freiman's $3k-4$ theorem for small sumsets in $mathbbR$ by using some ideas from Ruzsa's work on measure of sumsets in $mathbbR$ as well as some graphic representation of density functions of sets. We thereby get some structural properties of $A$, $B$ and $A+B$ when $lambda(A+B)<lambda(A)+lambda(B)+min(lambda(A),lambda(B))$. We also give some structural information for sets of large density with small sumset and characterize the extremal sets for which equality holds in the lower bounds for $lambda(A+B)$.
