Abstract: Let F(x)=(f1(x),dots,fm(x)) be such that 1,f1,dots,fm are linearly independent polynomials with real coefficients. Based on ideas of Bachoc, DeCorte, Oliveira and Vallentin in combination with estimating certain oscillatory integrals with polynomial phase we will show that the independence ratio of the Cayley graph of mathbbRm with respect to the portion of the graph of F defined by aleqlog|s|leqT is at most O(1/(T−a)). We conclude that if IsubseteqmathbbRm has positive upper density, then the difference set I−I contains vectors of the form F(s) for an unbounded set of values sinmathbbR. It follows that the Borel chromatic number of the Cayley graph of mathbbRm with respect to the set pmF(s):sinmathbbR is infinite. Analogous results are also proven when mathbbR is replaced by the field of p-adic numbers mathbbQp. At the end, we will also the existence of real analytic functions f1,dots,fm, for which the analogous statements no longer hold.
