  • Ergodic Theory and Combinatorial Number Theory
    Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Report No. 50/2012 DOI: 10.4171/OWR/2012/50 Arbeitsgemeinschaft: Ergodic Theory and Combinatorial Number Theory Organised by Vitaly Bergelson, Columbus Nikos Frantzikinakis, Heraklion Terence Tao, Los Angeles Tamar Ziegler, Haifa 7th October – 13th October 2012 Abstract. The aim of this Arbeitsgemeinschaft was to introduce young re- searchers with various backgrounds to the multifaceted and mutually perpet- uating connections between ergodic theory, topological dynamics, combina- torics, and number theory. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 05D10, 11K06, 11B25, 11B30, 27A45, 28D05, 28D15, 37A30, 37A45, 37B05. Introduction by the Organisers In 1977 Furstenberg gave an ergodic proof of the celebrated theorem of Sze- mer´edi on arithmetic progressions, hereby starting a new field, ergodic Ramsey theory. Over the years the methods of ergodic theory and topological dynamics have led to very impressive developments in the fields of arithmetic combinatorics and Ramsey theory. Furstenberg’s original approach has been enhanced with sev- eral deep structural results of measure preserving systems, equidistribution results on nilmanifolds, the use of ultrafilters etc. Several novel techniques have been de- veloped and opened new vistas that led to new deep results, including far reaching extensions of Szemer´edi’s theorem, results in Euclidean Ramsey theory, multiple recurrence results for non-abelian group actions, convergence results for multiple ergodic averages etc. These methods have also facilitated the recent spectacu- lar progress on patterns in primes. The field of ergodic theory has tremendously benefited, since the problems of combinatorial and number-theoretic nature have given a boost to the in depth study of recurrence and convergence problems.

  • FROM HARMONIC ANALYSIS to ARITHMETIC COMBINATORICS: a BRIEF SURVEY the Purpose of This Note Is to Showcase a Certain Line Of
    FROM HARMONIC ANALYSIS TO ARITHMETIC COMBINATORICS: A BRIEF SURVEY IZABELLA ÃLABA The purpose of this note is to showcase a certain line of research that connects harmonic analysis, speci¯cally restriction theory, to other areas of mathematics such as PDE, geometric measure theory, combinatorics, and number theory. There are many excellent in-depth presentations of the vari- ous areas of research that we will discuss; see e.g., the references below. The emphasis here will be on highlighting the connections between these areas. Our starting point will be restriction theory in harmonic analysis on Eu- clidean spaces. The main theme of restriction theory, in this context, is the connection between the decay at in¯nity of the Fourier transforms of singu- lar measures and the geometric properties of their support, including (but not necessarily limited to) curvature and dimensionality. For example, the Fourier transform of a measure supported on a hypersurface in Rd need not, in general, belong to any Lp with p < 1, but there are positive results if the hypersurface in question is curved. A classic example is the restriction theory for the sphere, where a conjecture due to E. M. Stein asserts that the Fourier transform maps L1(Sd¡1) to Lq(Rd) for all q > 2d=(d¡1). This has been proved in dimension 2 (Fe®erman-Stein, 1970), but remains open oth- erwise, despite the impressive and often groundbreaking work of Bourgain, Wol®, Tao, Christ, and others. We recommend [8] for a thorough survey of restriction theory for the sphere and other curved hypersurfaces. Restriction-type estimates have been immensely useful in PDE theory; in fact, much of the interest in the subject stems from PDE applications.

  • Green-Tao Theorem in Function Fields 11
    GREEN-TAO THEOREM IN FUNCTION FIELDS THAI´ HOANG` LE^ Abstract. We adapt the proof of the Green-Tao theorem on arithmetic progressions in primes to the setting of polynomials over a finite fields, to show that for every k, the irreducible polynomials in Fq[t] contains configurations of the form ff + P g : deg(P ) < kg; g 6= 0. 1. Introduction In [13], Green and Tao proved the following celebrated theorem now bearing their name: Theorem 1 (Green-Tao). The primes contain arithmetic progressions of arbitrarily length. Furthermore, the same conclusion is true for any subset of positive relative upper density of the primes. Subsequently, other variants of this theorem have been proved. Tao and Ziegler [26] proved the generalization for polynomial progressions a + p1(d); : : : ; a + pk(d), where pi 2 Z[x] and pi(0) = 0. Tao [24] proved the analog in the Gaussian integers. It is well known that the integers and the polynomials over a finite field share a lot of similarities in many aspects relevant to arithmetic combinatorics. Therefore, it is natural, as Green and Tao did, to suggest that the analog of this theorem should hold in the setting of function fields: Conjecture 1. For any finite field F, the monic irreducible polynomials in F[t] contain affine spaces of arbitrarily high dimension. We give an affirmative answer to this conjecture. More precisely, we will prove: Theorem 2 (Green-Tao for function fields). Let Fq be a finite field over q elements. Then for any k > 0, we can find polynomials f; g 2 Fq[t]; g 6= 0 such that the polynomials f + P g, where P runs over all polynomials P 2 Fq[t] of degree less than k, are all irreducible.

  • PROBLEMS in ARITHMETIC TOPOLOGY Three Problem
    PROBLEMS IN ARITHMETIC TOPOLOGY CLAUDIO GÓMEZ-GONZÁLES AND JESSE WOLFSON Abstract. We present a list of problems in arithmetic topology posed at the June 2019 PIMS/NSF workshop on "Arithmetic Topology". Three problem sessions were hosted during the workshop in which participants proposed open questions to the audience and engaged in shared discussions from their own perspectives as working mathematicians across various fields of study. Partic- ipants were explicitly asked to provide problems of various levels of difficulty, with the goal of capturing a cross-section of exciting challenges in the field that could help guide future activity. The problems, together with references and brief discussions when appropriate, are collected below into three categories: 1) topological analogues of arithmetic phenomena, 2) point counts, stability phenomena and the Grothendieck ring, and 3) tools, methods and examples.

  • The Cauchy Davenport Theorem
    The Cauchy Davenport Theorem Arithmetic Combinatorics (Fall 2016) Rutgers University Swastik Kopparty Last modified: Thursday 22nd September, 2016 1 Introduction and class logistics • See http://www.math.rutgers.edu/~sk1233/courses/additive-F16/ for the course website (including syllabus). • Class this Thursday is cancelled. We will schedule a makeup class sometime. • Office hours: Thursdays at 11am. • References: Tao and Vu, Additive combinatorics, and other online references (including class notes). • Grading: there will be 2 or 3 problem sets. 2 How small can a sumset be? Let A; B be subsets of an abelian group (G; +). The sumset of A and B, denoted A + B is given by: A + B = fa + b j a 2 A; b 2 Bg: We will be very interested in how the size of A + B relates to the sizes of A and B (for A,B finite). Some general comments. If A and B are generic, then we expect jA + Bj to be big. Only when A and B are very additively structured, and furthermore if their structure is highly compatible, does jA + Bj end up small. If G is the group of real numbers under addition, then the following simple inequality holds: jA + Bj ≥ jAj + jBj − 1: Proof: Let A = fa1; : : : ; akg where a1 < a2 < : : : < ak. Let B = fb1; : : : ; b`g, where b1 < : : : < b`. Then a1 + b1 < a1 + b2 < : : : < a1 + b` < a2 + b` < a3 + b` < : : : < ak + b`, and thus all these elements of A + B are distinct. Thus we found jAj + jBj − 1 distinct elements in A + B. Equality is attained if and only if A and B are arithmetic progressions with the same common difference (In case of equality we need to have either ai + bj = a1 + bj+i−1 or ai + bj = ai+j−` + b`).

  • Fundamental Groups of Number Fields Farshid Hajir in This Mostly Expository Lecture Aimed at Low-Dimensional Topologists, I
    Fundamental groups of number fields Farshid Hajir In this mostly expository lecture aimed at low-dimensional topologists, I out- lined some basic facts and problems of algebraic number theory. My focus was on one particular aspect of the rich set of analogies between number fields and 3-manifolds dubbed Arithmetic Topology. Namely, I discussed the role played in number theory by \fundamental groups" of number fields, and related some of the history of the subject over the past fifty years, since the unexpected discovery by Golod and Shafarevich of number fields with infinite fundamental group; see the monograph of Neukirch, Schmidt, Wingberg [10] for a comprehensive account. A conjecture of Fontaine and Mazur [3] has been influential in stimulating work on the structure of these infinite fundamental groups in recent years. I presented a for- mulation of this conjecture as it relates to the asymptotic growth of discriminants [6]. This discussion then served as motivation for a question about non-compact, finite-volume, 3-manifolds inspired by the following dictionary. Topology Arithmetic M non-compact, finite-volume K a number field hyperbolic 3-manifold or, more precisely, X = SpecOK universal cover Mf Ke = max. unramified extension of K et fundamental group π1(M) Gal(K=Ke ) ≈ π1 (X) Klein-bottle cusps of M Real (\unoriented") places of K Torus cusps of M Complex (\oriented") places of K r1 = # Klein-bottle cusps of M r1 = # Real places of K r2 = # Torus cusps of M r2 = # Complex places of K r = r1 + r2 = # cusps of M r = r1 + r2 = # places of K at 1 n = r1 + 2r2 = weighted # cusps n = r1 + 2r2 = [K : Q] vol(M) = volume of M log jdK j, dK = discriminant of K There are multiple accounts of the dictionary of arithmetic topology; these in- clude Reznikov [12], Ramachandran [11], Deninger [2], Morin [9], and Morishita [8].
