Properties of high rank subvarieties of affine spaces

We use tools of additive combinatorics for the study of subvarieties defined by {\it high rank} families of polynomials in high dimensional $\mathbb{F} _q$-vector spaces. In the first, analytic part of the paper we prove a number properties of high rank systems of polynomials. In the second, we use these properties to deduce results in Algebraic Geometry, such as an effective Stillman conjecture over algebraically closed fields, an analogue of Nullstellensatz for varieties over finite fields, and a strengthening of a recent result of [5]. We also show that for $k$-varieties $\mathbb X \subset \mathbb{A}^n$ of high rank any weakly polynomial function on a set $\mathbb{X}(k)\subset k^n$ extends to a polynomial.
