Abstract
In this note, we show the mixing of three-term progressions in every finite quasirandom groups, fully answering a question of Gowers. More precisely, we show that for any -quasirandom group and any three sets , we have Prior to this, Tao answered this question when the underlying quasirandom group is . Subsequently, Peluse extended the result to all nonabelian finite groups. In this work, we show that a slight modification of Peluse's argument is sufficient to fully resolve Gower's quasirandom conjecture for 3-term progressions. Surprisingly, unlike the proofs of Tao and Peluse, our proof is elementary and only uses basic facts from nonabelian Fourier analysis.
