Quasipolynomial Bounds for the Corners Theorem
SEMINARS: HARVARD-MIT COMBINATORICS
When: April 17, 2025
4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Where: MIT 2-139
Speaker: Mehtaab S. Sawhney (Columbia University)
We prove quasipolynomial bounds for the corners theorem for general abelian groups. The proof draws on a number of themes in additive combinatorics, including recent work of Kelley-Meka on 3-term arithmetic progressions, work on almost periodicity, and work of Conlon, Fox, and Zhao on densification.
Based on joint work with Michael Jaber, Yang P Liu, Shachar Lovett and Anthony Ostuni.
