Polynomial multiple recurrence over rings of integers

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We generalize the polynomial Szemer'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new polynomial configurations in positive-density subsets of mathbbZm and strengthens and extends recent results of Bergelson, Leibman and Lesigne on polynomials over the integers.


The authors prove a generalization of the polynomial Szemerédi theorem to the case of intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, which means polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. Using an appropriate version of the Furstenberg correspondence principle, this result leads to new examples of the polynomial van der Waerden theorem. The results in the present paper extend earlier results in the field, such as those in [the first author et al., J. Am. Math. Soc. 9, No. 3, 725--753 (1996; Zbl 0870.11015); Adv. Math. 219, No. 1, 369--388 (2008; Zbl 1156.11007)].
