A multi-dimensional Szemerédi theorem for the primes via a correspondence principle

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We establish a version of the Furstenberg-Katznelson multi-dimensional Szemerédi in the primes P:={2,3,5,…}{\mathcal P} := \{2,3,5,\ldots\}, which roughly speaking asserts that any dense subset of Pd{\mathcal P}^d contains constellations of any given shape. Our arguments are based on a weighted version of the Furstenberg correspondence principle, relative to a weight which obeys an infinite number of pseudorandomness (or "linear forms") conditions, combined with the main results of a series of papers by Green and the authors which establish such an infinite number of pseudorandomness conditions for a weight associated with the primes. The same result, by a rather different method, has been simultaneously established by Cook, Magyar, and Titichetrakun.
