Sum-Difference Exponents for Boundedly Many Slopes

Precise statement
The arithmetic Kakeya conjecture asserts the infimum of sum-difference exponents is 1, which would imply the Kakeya conjecture in all dimensions. In the bounded-slope-count regime, Tao establishes that the exponents converge to 2 at a rate controlled by a new notion of rational complexity - mapping where the conjectured route cannot succeed.
