Abstract: In this talk we will introduce some new problems and related progress on determinants involving Legendre symbols, circular permutations and additive combinatorics. For example, we conjecture that for any finite subset $$a_1+a_2+a_3, a_2+a_3+a_4,\ldots, a_{n-2}+a_{n-1}+a_n, a_{n-1}+a_n+a_1, a_n+a_1+a_2$$ are pairwise distinct. The speaker has proved this when |
