Abstract

We prove a Szemeredi-Trotter type theorem and a sum product estimate in the setting of finite quasifields. These estimates generalize results of the fourth author, of Garaev, and of Vu. We generalize results of Gyarmati and Sarkozy on the solvability of the equations a + b = cd and ab + 1 = cd over a finite field. Other analogous results that are known to hold in finite fields are generalized to finite quasifields. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
