Abstract: We establish new results on sets of recurrence and van der Corput sets in Z^k which refine and unify some of the previous results obtained by Sarkozy, Furstenberg, Kamae and Mendes France, and Bergelson and Lesigne. The proofs utilize a general equidistribution result involving prime powers which is of independent interest.


This paper proves new results on sets of recurrence and van der Corput sets in \(\mathbb{Z}^k\) by using a general equidistribution result involving prime powers. The results refine and unify some previous results of \textit{A. Sarközy} [Acta Math. Acad. Sci. Hung. 31, 125--149 (1978; Zbl 0387.10033); Ann. Univ. Sci. Budap. Rolando Eötvös, Sect. Math. 21, 45--53 (1978; Zbl 0413.10051); Acta Math. Acad. Sci. Hung. 31, 355--386 (1978; Zbl 0387.10034)], \textit{H. Furstenberg} [J. Anal. Math. 31, 204--256 (1977; Zbl 0347.28016); Recurrence in ergodic theory and combinatorial number theory. Princeton, New Jersey: Princeton University Press (1981; Zbl 0459.28023)], \textit{T. Kamae} and \textit{M. Mendès France} [Isr. J. Math. 31, 335--342 (1978; Zbl 0396.10040)], and the first author and \textit{E. Lesigne} [Colloq. Math. 110, No. 1, 1--49 (2008; Zbl 1177.37018)].
