Abstract
Let P1, . . ., Pm ∈ ℤ[y] be polynomials with distinct degrees, each having zero constant term. We show that any subset A of {1, . . ., N} with no nontrivial progressions of the form x, x + P1(y), . . ., x + Pm(y) has size |A| ≪ N/(log log N)cP1,...,Pm . Along the way, we prove a general result controlling weighted counts of polynomial progressions by Gowers norms.
