title = "Arithmetic progressions in sumsets of sparse sets",
abstract = "A set of positive integers A 0 is log-sparse if there is an absolute constant C so that for any positive integer x the sequence contains at most C elements in the interval [x, 2x). In this note, we study arithmetic progressions in sums of logsparse subsets of 0. We prove that for any log-sparse subsets S1, Sn of 0, the sumset S = S1 + Sn cannot contain an arithmetic progression of size greater than n(1+o(1))n. We also show that this is nearly tight by proving that there exist log-sparse sets S1, Sn such that S1 + Sn contains an arithmetic progression of size n(1-o(1))n.",
