Abstract: Let $(X,mathcalB,mu,T)$ be an ergodic measure preserving system, $AinmathcalB$ and $epsilon>0$. We study the largeness of sets of the form �egin{equation*} �egin{split} S = left{ ninmathbb{N}colonmu(Acap T^{-f_1(n)}Acap T^{-f_2(n)}Acapldotscap T^{-f_k(n)}A)> mu(A)^{k+1} - epsilon ight} end{split} end{equation*} for various families $f_1,dots,f_k$ of sequences $f_{i}colonmathbbNomathbbN$. For $kleq3$ and $f_i(n)=if(n)$, we show that $S$ has positive density if $f(n)=q(p_n)$ where $qinmathbbZ[x]$ satisfies $q(1)$ or $q(-1)=0$ and $p_n$ denotes the $n$-th prime; or when $f$ is a certain Hardy field sequence. If $T^q$ is ergodic for some $qinmathbbN$, then for all $rinmathbbZ$, $S$ is syndetic if $f(n)=qn+r$. For $f_i(n)=a_{i}n$, where $a_i$ are distinct integers, we show that $S$ can be empty for $kgeq4$, and for $k=3$ we found an interesting relation between the largeness of $S$ and the abundance of solutions to certain linear equations in sparse sets of integers. We also provide some partial results when the $f_i$ are distinct polynomials.
