Abstract

Let P\mathcal{P} be an (unbounded) countable multiset of primes (i.e. every prime may appear multiple times) and let G=pPFpG=\bigoplus_{p\in \mathcal{P}}\mathbb{F}_p. We develop a Host-Kra structure theory for the universal characteristic factors of an ergodic GG-system. More specifically, we generalize the main results of Bergelson Tao and Ziegler who studied these factors in the special case P={p,p,p,...}\mathcal{P}=\{p,p,p,...\} for some fixed prime pp. As an application we deduce a Khintchine-type recurrence theorem in the flavor of Bergelson Tao and Ziegler and Bergelson Host and Kra.
