Iterated-sumset spectra: The complete exponent law and its rank geometry

For integers $h,k\geq 1$, let $hA$ be the $h$-fold sumset of $A$ and put $\mathcal{R}(h,k)=\{|hA|:A\subset\mathbb{Z}, |A|=k\}$. Previously, the fixed-cardinality exponent law was known only for $k\leq 3$; every fixed $k\geq 4$ remained open. We settle the problem in full by determining the complete fixed-cardinality ex...
