Abstract: In this paper we establish non-trivial estimates for the additive discretized energy of [sum_{cin C} |{(a_1, a_2, b_1, b_2)in A^2 imes B^2: |(a_1 +cb_1) - (a_2 + cb_2)|le delta}|_{delta},] that depend on the non-concentration conditions of the sets. Our proofs introduce a number of novel approaches which make use of a combination of methods from both continuous and discrete settings including a pivoting argument, which has been used in the finite field setting due to Murphy and Petridis, the recent Guth-Katz-Zahl's method for the discretized sum-product problem and a Dabrowski-Orponen-Villa point-tube incidence bound. As applications, we obtain a number of improvements on the size of the $delta$-covering of sets $A+cB$ and $C(A+A)$. Furthermore, for compact sets $A,BsubsetmathbbR$, we also prove new explicit upper bounds on the quantity $di{m}_{H}cinmathbbRcolondi{m}_H(A+cB)lealpha+epsilon$. Our approach leads to considerably shorter proofs over the previous works due to Bourgain and Orponen.
