Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We prove that there are explicit sets A that have ε-discrepancy on all rank d Bohr sets in ^ZN and are of size |A|=poly(( ^lnN)d,1/ε). This extends the result on explicit sets with ε-discrepancy on arithmetic progressions Razborov et al. [2] (1993) to Bohr sets which are the higher rank analogue of arithmetic progressions. Our proof is via a reduction to the existence of explicit small biased sets in ^ZN.
