Small doubling does not control tripling in a noncommutative group

Let
H
be
a
finite
subgroup
and choose
x
with
H
∩
x
H
x
−
1
=
{
1
}
. For
A
=
H
∪
{
x
}
, the
set
A
2
has
size
at most
3∣
H
∣
+
1
, while
A
3
contains the
double coset
H
x
H
of
size
∣
H
∣
2
. Thus bounded doubling alone gives no tripling bound in arbitrary
groups
.
