Abstract/Summary

An improved sum-product estimate for subsets of a finite field whose order is not prime is provided. It is shown, under certain conditions, that max{∣∣∣A+A∣∣∣,∣∣∣A⋅A∣∣∣}≫∣∣A∣∣12/11(log2∣∣A∣∣)5/11. This new estimate matches, up to a logarithmic factor, the current best known bound obtained over prime fields by Rudnev
