We show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes up to $N$ of density at least $C(\\log\\log N)^{-1/25t}$, there exists a solution $x \\in A^t$ to $V x = 0$ with distinct coordinates. This extends a quantitative result of Helfgott and de Roton for three-term arithmetic progressions, while the qualitative result is known to hold for all systems of equations of finite complexity by the work of Green and Tao.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-05-16T19:55:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "three-term arithmetic progressions", "linear equations", "distinct coordinates", "translation-invariant system", "finite complexity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 33, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1403.7040H" } } }
