The spectrum of $A$ is the set of its large Fourier coefficients. Known combinatorial results on the structure of spectrum, such as Chang's theorem, become trivial in the regime $|A| = |G|^\\alpha $ whenever $\\alpha \\le c$, where $c \\ge 1/2$ is some absolute constant. On the other hand, there are statistical results, which apply only to a noticeable fraction of the elements, which give nontrivial bounds even to much smaller sets. One such theorem (due to Bourgain) goes as follows.
