Consider a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ and a decomposition of its indicator function as the sum of two bounded functions $1_A=f_1+f_2$. For every family of linear forms, we find the smallest degree of uniformity $k$ such that assuming…

Irrespective of whether n is prime, prime power with exponent >1, or composite, the group U_n of units of Z_n can sometimes be obtained as the direct product of cyclic groups generated by x, x+k and x+2k, for x, k in Z_n. Indeed, for many…
