Attaining the exponent 5/4 for the sum-product problem in finite fields

Abstract: We improve the exponent in the finite field sum-product problem from

11 / 9

to

5 / 4

, improving the results of Rudnev, Shakan and Shkredov. That is, we show that if

A s u b s e t m a t h b b F_{p}

has cardinality

| A | l l p^{1 / 2}

then [ max{|Apm A|,|AA|} gtrsim |A|^frac54 ] and [ max{|Apm A|,|A/A|}gtrsim |A|^frac54,. ]
