The Gowers U^3 norm is one of a sequence of norms used in the study of arithmetic progressions. If G is an abelian group and A is a subset of G then the U^3(G) of the characteristic function 1_A is useful in the study of progressions of…
We state and prove a quantitative inverse theorem for the Gowers uniformity norm $U^3(G)$ on an arbitrary finite abelian group $G$; the cases when $G$ was of odd order or a vector space over ${\mathbf F}_2$ had previously been established…
The inverse theory for Gowers uniformity norms is one of the central topics in additive combinatorics and one of the most important aspects of the theory is the question of bounds. In this paper, we prove a quasipolynomial inverse theorem…
We establish a correspondence between inverse sumset theorems (which can be viewed as classifications of approximate (abelian) groups) and inverse theorems for the Gowers norms (which can be viewed as classifications of approximate…
(This text is a survey written for the Bourbaki seminar on the work of F. Manners.) Gowers uniformity norms are the central objects of higher order Fourier analysis, one of the cornerstones of additive combinatorics, and play an important…
Using the density-increment strategy of Roth and Gowers, we derive Szemeredi's theorem on arithmetic progressions from the inverse conjectures GI(s) for the Gowers norms, recently established by the authors and Ziegler.
This paper is the third part of the series "Spherical higher order Fourier analysis over finite fields", aiming to develop the higher order Fourier analysis method along spheres over finite fields, and to solve the geometric Ramsey…
We prove a structure theorem for multiplicative functions which states that an arbitrary bounded multiplicative function can be decomposed into two terms, one that is approximately periodic and another that has small Gowers uniformity norm…
We obtain a double exponential bound in Brauer's generalisation of van der Waerden's theorem, which concerns progressions with the same colour as their common difference. Such a result has been obtained independently and in much greater…
We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…
The inverse conjecture for the Gowers norms $U^d(V)$ for finite-dimensional vector spaces $V$ over a finite field $\F$ asserts, roughly speaking, that a bounded function $f$ has large Gowers norm $\|f\|_{U^d(V)}$ if and only if it…
The Bogolyubov-Ruzsa lemma, in particular the quantitative bounds obtained by Sanders, plays a central role in obtaining effective bounds for the inverse $U^3$ theorem for the Gowers norms. Recently, Gowers and Mili\'cevi\'c applied a…
We examine multidimensional polynomial progressions involving linearly independent polynomials in finite fields, proving power saving bounds for sets lacking such configurations. This jointly generalises earlier results of Peluse (for the…
We prove quantitative bounds for the inverse theorem for Gowers uniformity norms $\mathsf{U}^5$ and $\mathsf{U}^6$ in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$. The proof starts from an earlier partial result of Gowers and the author which reduces the inverse…
We show that there exists $c>0$ such that any subset of $\{1, \dots, N\}$ of density at least $(\log\log{N})^{-c}$ contains a nontrivial progression of the form $x,x+y,x+y^2$. This is the first quantitatively effective version of the…
For every natural number k we prove a decomposition theorem for bounded measurable functions on compact abelian groups into a structured part, a quasi random part and a small error term. In this theorem quasi randomness is measured with the…
We establish the following quantitative form of the Green--Tao theorem: if a set $\mathcal{A}$ of relative density $\delta$ within the primes up to $N$ contains no nontrivial arithmetic progressions of length $k\geq 4$, then $\delta\ll…
In recent work, Jamneshan, Shalom and Tao proved an inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^{k+1}$-norm on finite abelian groups of fixed torsion $m$, where the final correlating harmonic is a polynomial phase function of degree at most $C(k,m)$.…
We give a structural description of the finite subsets $A$ of an arbitrary group $G$ which obey the polynomial growth condition $|A^n| \leq n^d |A|$ for some bounded $d$ and sufficiently large $n$, showing that such sets are controlled by…
Let $p$ be a fixed prime number, and $N$ be a large integer. The 'Inverse Conjecture for the Gowers norm' states that if the "$d$-th Gowers norm" of a function $f:\F_p^N \to \F_p$ is non-negligible, that is larger than a constant…
