Polynomial Szemerédi-type conjecture for multiplicatively closed cut-and-project sets

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let RR be a locally compact and second countable ring, and let Λ⊂R\Lambda \subset R be a multiplicatively closed cut-and-project set. Suppose that Po⊂ΛP_o \subset \Lambda has positive upper Banach density in (R,+)(R,+). Let r≥1r\geq 1, and let p1,…,pr:R→Rp_1,\ldots,p_r:R\to R be polynomials satisfying pk(0)=0p_k(0)=0 and pk(Λ)⊂Λqp_k(\Lambda)\subset \Lambda^q for some q≥1q\geq 1 and every kk. For a finite set F⊂Λ∞F\subset \Lambda^\infty, define

SF={λ∈Λ:there exists λo∈Po such that λo+{p1(λ),…,pr(λ)}⊂Po}.S_F=\{\lambda\in\Lambda:\text{there exists }\lambda_o\in P_o\text{ such that }\lambda_o+\{p_1(\lambda),\ldots,p_r(\lambda)\}\subset P_o\}.

Polynomial Szemerédi-type conjecture. The set SFS_F is syndetic. This is proposed as a polynomial strengthening of the preceding corollary, motivated by polynomial extensions of Szemerédi's theorem; its resolution is not given in the supplied text.
