Streszczenie
We show that a subcritical pair $(A,B)$ of sufficiently “spread-out” Borel sets in a compact and second countable group $K$ with an abelian identity component must reduce to a Sturmian pair in either $\mathbb {T}$ or $\mathbb {T}\rtimes \{-1,1\}$. This extends a classical result of Kneser.
