abstract

We show that if $A\subset \{1,\ldots,N\}$ contains no non-trivial three-term arithmetic progressions then $\lvert A\rvert \ll N/(\log N)^{1+c}$ for some absolute constant $c>0$. In particular, this proves the first non-trivial case of a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s on arithmetic progressions.

  1. A Roth theorem in $\mathbb R^2$ and a related ergodic theorem

    math.CA 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    A quantitative Roth theorem holds in R^{2} for the genuinely two-dimensional polynomial pattern (t1,t2) and (t1^{2}+t2^{2}, t1^{3}+t2^{3}), with a matching pointwise ergodic theorem.

  2. Large Sets of Integers with No Harmonic Triples

    math.NT 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    The author proves f(N) ≫ N exp(−(2√(log(24/7))+o(1))√(log log N)) for the largest harmonic-triple-free subset of [N], matching the form of the best 3-AP-free lower bound with log N replaced by log log N.
