Carries, Group Theory, and Additive Combinatorics

Given a group and a normal subgroup, we study the problem of choosing coset representatives with few “carries.” The problem is closely linked to the emerging field of additive combinatorics. We explore this link and give a gentle introduction to some results and techniques of additive combinatorics....
