The regionally proximal relation of order $d$ along arithmetic progressions, namely ${bf AP}^{[d]}$ for $din N$, is introduced and investigated. It turns out that if $(X,T)$ is a topological dynamical system with ${bf AP}^{[d]}=Delta$, then each ergodic measure of $(X,T)$ is isomorphic to a $d$-step pro-nilsystem, and thus $(X,T)$ has zero entropy. Moreover, it is shown that if $(X,T)$ is a strictly ergodic distal system with the property that the maximal topological and measurable $d$-step pro-nilsystems are isomorphic, then ${bf AP}^{[d]}={bf RP}^{[d]}$ for each $din {mathbb N}$. It follows that for a minimal $infty$-pro-nilsystem, ${bf AP}^{[d]}={bf RP}^{[d]}$ for each $din {mathbb N}$. An example which is a strictly ergodic distal system with discrete spectrum whose maximal equicontinuous factor is not isomorphic to the Kronecker factor is constructed.
Let $pi: (X,T)rightarrow (Y,T)$ be a factor map of topological dynamics and $din {mathbb {N}}$. $(Y,T)$ is said to be a $d$-step topological characteristic factor if there exists a dense $G_delta$ set $X_0$ of $X$ such that for each $xin X_0$ the orb
In this paper, we investigate the anti-Ramsey (more precisely, anti-van der Waerden) properties of arithmetic progressions. For positive integers $n$ and $k$, the expression $aw([n],k)$ denotes the smallest number of colors with which the integers ${
For a topological dynamical system $(X, T)$, $linmathbb{N}$ and $xin X$, let $N_l(X)$ and $L_x^l(X)$ be the orbit closures of the diagonal point $(x,x,ldots,x)$ ($l $ times) under the actions $mathcal{G}_{l}$ and $tau_l $ respectively, where $mathcal
We prove that the maximal infinite step pro-nilfactor $X_infty$ of a minimal dynamical system $(X,T)$ is the topological characteristic factor in a certain sense. Namely, we show that by an almost one to one modification of $pi:X rightarrow X_infty$,
Celebrated theorems of Roth and of Matouv{s}ek and Spencer together show that the discrepancy of arithmetic progressions in the first $n$ positive integers is $Theta(n^{1/4})$. We study the analogous problem in the $mathbb{Z}_n$ setting. We asymptoti
