Near optimal three-fold additive energy bound for points on convex curves

Let $X\subset\mathbb{R}$ be finite and let $\gamma(t)=(t,f(t))$, where $f$ is strictly convex. We show that \[ J_3(\gamma(X)) =\#\{(x_1,\ldots,x_6)\in X^6:\sum_{i=1}^3\gamma(x_i)=\sum_{i=4}^6\gamma(x_i)\} \ll_{\epsilon}|X|^{3+\epsilon}. \] When specialized to the parabola, our result implies near-optimal estimates for...
