Bohr neighborhoods in generalized difference sets (2108.01302v1)
Published 3 Aug 2021 in math.NT, math.CO, and math.DS
Abstract: If $A$ is a set of integers having positive upper Banach density and $r,s,t$ are nonzero integers whose sum is zero, a theorem of Bergelson and Ruzsa says that the set $rA+sA+tA:={ra_1+sa_2+ta_3:a_i\in A}$ contains a Bohr neighborhood of zero. We prove the natural generalization of this result for subsets of countable abelian groups and more summands.
