Bourgain's discretized sum-product theorem asserts that if a subset of real numbers satisfies some non-concentration property, then its size grows significantly when it adds and multiplies to itself element-wise. In this talk I will discuss higher-dimensional analogues of this phenomenon, namely sum-product estimates in simple algebras and in Euclidean spaces under the action of linear endomorphisms.
