Abstract

We present a general algebraic technique and discuss some of its numerous applications in combinatorial number theory, in graph theory and in combinatorics. These applications include results in additive number theory and in the study of graph colouring problems. Many of these are known results, to which we present unified proofs, and some results are new.
