Abstract

Let (X,μ,T1,...,Tl)(X,\mu,T_1,...,T_l) be a measure-preserving system with those TiT_i are commuting. Suppose that the polynomials p1(t),...,pl(t)Z[t]p_1(t),...,p_{l}(t)\in\Z[t] with pj(0)=0p_j(0)=0 have distinct degrees. Then for any ϵ>0\epsilon>0 and AXA\subseteq X with μ(A)>0\mu(A)>0, the set {n:μ(AT1p1(n)A...Tlpl(n)A)μ(A)l+1ϵ} \{n:\,\mu(A\cap T_1^{-p_1(n)}A\cap...\cap T_l^{-p_l(n)}A)\geq\mu(A)^{l+1}-\epsilon\} has bounded gaps.
