Abstract
In a recent paper (arXiv:1211.6372), Bergelson and Tao proved that if is a -quasi-random group, and , are drawn uniformly and independently from , then the quadruple is roughly equidistributed in the subset of defined by the constraint that the last two coordinates lie in the same conjugacy class. Their proof gives only a qualitative version of this result. The present notes gives a rather more elementary proof which improves this to an explicit polynomial bound in .
