contents We consider a (possibly discrete) unimodular locally compact group $G$ with Haar measure $μ_G$, and a compact $A\subseteq G$ of positive measure with $μ_G(A^2)\leq Kμ_G(A)$. Let $H$ be a closed normal subgroup of G and $π: G \rightarrow G/H$ be the quotient map. With the further assumption that $A= A^{-1}$, we show $$μ_{G/H}(πA ^2) \leq K^2 μ_{G/H}(πA).$$ We also demonstrate that $K^2$ cannot be replaced by $(1-ε)K^2$ for any $ε>0$. In the general case (without $A=A^{-1}$), we show $μ_{G/H}(πA ^2) \leq K^3 μ_{G/H}(πA)$, improving an earlier result by An, Jing, Zhang, and the third author. Moreover, we are able to extract a compact set $B\subseteq A$ with $μ_G(B)> μ_G(A)/2$ such that $ μ_{G/H}(πB^2) < 2K μ_{G/H}(πB)$.
