Additive Number Theory: Inverse Problems and the Geometry of Sumsets

Inverse problems are a central topic in additive number theory. This graduate text gives a comprehensive and self-contained account of this subject. In particular, it contains complete proofs of results from exterior algebra, combinatorics, graph theory, and the geometry of numbers that are used in the proofs of the principal inverse theorems. The only prerequisites for the book are undergraduate courses in algebra, number theory, and analysis.
