A Theorem of Hou, Leung and Xiang generalised Kneser’s addition Theorem to field extensions. This theorem was known to be valid only in separable extensions, and it was a conjecture of Hou that it should be valid for all extensions. We give an alternative proof of the theorem that also holds in the non-separable case, thus solving Hou’s conjecture. This result is a consequence of a strengthening of Hou et al.’s theorem that is inspired by an addition theorem of Balandraud and is obtained by combinatorial methods transposed and adapted to the extension field setting. |
