In 1980, Erdős and Heilbronn posed the problem of estimating (from below) the number of sums $a+b$ where $a\in A$ and $b\in B$ range over given sets $A,B\subseteq{\Bbb Z}/p{\Bbb Z}$ of residues modulo a prime $p$, so that $a\neq b$. A solution was given in 1994 by Dias da Silva and Hamidoune. In 1995, Alon, Nathanson and Ruzsa developed a polynomial method that allows one to handle restrictions of the type $f(a,b)\neq 0$, where $f$ is a polynomial in two variables over ${\Bbb Z}/p{\Bbb Z}$. In this paper we consider restricting conditions of general type and investigate groups, distinct from ${\Bbb Z}/p{\Bbb Z}$. In particular, for $A,B\subseteq{\Bbb Z}/p{\Bbb Z}$ and ${\cal R}\subseteq A\times B$ of given cardinalities we give a sharp estimate for the number of distinct sums $a+b$ with $(a,b)\notin\ {\cal R}$, and we obtain a partial generalization of this estimate for arbitrary Abelian groups.

Set addition theory is born a few decades ago from additive number theory. Several difficult issues, more combinatorial in nature than algebraic, have been revealed. In particular, computing the values taken by the function: [Formula: see text] where G is a given group does not seem easy in general. Some successive results, using Kneser's Theorem, allowed the determination of the values of this function, provided that the group G is abelian. Recently, a method called isoperimetric, has been developed by Hamidoune and allowed new proofs and generalizations of the classical theorems in additive number theory. For instance, a new interpretation of the isoperimetric method has been able to give a new proof of Kneser's Theorem. The purpose of this article is to adapt this last proof in a non-abelian group, in order to give new values of the function μG, for some solvable groups and alternating groups. These values allow us in particular to answer negatively a question asked in the literature on the μG functions.
