Corners in dense subsets of P^d

Abstract

Let \PPd\PP^d be the dd-fold direct product of the set of primes. We prove that if AA is a subset of \PPd\PP^d of positive relative upper density then AA contains infinitely many "corners", that is sets of the form {x,x+te1,...,x+ted}\{x,x+te_1,...,x+te_d\} where x is an integer point and e_1,...,e_d are the standard basis vectors of the d-dimensional Euclidean space. Our argument is based on proving a removal lemma for weighted uniform hypergraphs, where the weight system is defined in terms of a pairwise linearly independent family of linear forms.
