This short survey, based on the content of a talk with the same title, summarizes some classical and recent results on the set of differences of an abelian group. We put a certain emphasize on ongoing joint work of A. Plagne and the author. We also briefly review the relevance of this notion in Non-unique Factorization Theory, in particular towards the subject mentioned in the title.
