Upper and lower bounds and time complexities on the Frobenius problem obtained from analysing its additive structure

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this work, we investigate upper and lower bounds for the Frobenius problem, using some existing results in additive combinatorics. Given a relatively prime finite set A of two or more positive integers, we define the Frobenius number for A as the maximum integer g(A) that cannot be represented by any nonnegative integer combination of A. The Frobenius problem is the problem that asks for finding g(A) for a given finite set A of relatively prime two or more positive integers. The Frobenius problem is known to be solved in polynomial time if we assume the cardinality of A to be fixed. However, the problem is also known to be NP-hard under Cook-reduction if we do not set the assumption. Thus, it is important to find better upper and lower bounds for the problem. In this paper, we investigate new upper and lower bounds for the Frobenius problem by applying Mann's theorem and Plunnecke's theorem, which is known for useful tools in additive combinatorics.
