Application of Banach limits to the study of sets of integers (Q1109818): Difference between revisions

Kamae and Mendès-France, A. Bertrand-Mathis, Bourgain and the reviewer have found connections between van der Corput's equidistribution theorem, difference sets, \(FC^+\)-sets (forcing continuity of positive measures) and Poincaré sets. Several of these results are systematized here and extended to means defined by different summability methods (the usual mean here corresponds to Cesàro summation) as well as to abstract groups replacing the unit circle. A new equivalent condition of the \(FC^+\) property is given with isometries. Quantitative versions are established for most of the cases. The paper is completed with a summary of previous results and ample references, to which I would like to add one, \textit{I. Kříž} [Graphs Comb. 3, 145-158 (1987; Zbl 0641.05044)].
