abstract
We show that if $A\subset \{1,\ldots,N\}$ contains no non-trivial three-term arithmetic progressions then $\lvert A\rvert \ll N/(\log N)^{1+c}$ for some absolute constant $c>0$. In particular, this proves the first non-trivial case of a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s on arithmetic progressions.

A refinement of Chang's lemma that adds cosetwise l1 control on correlations outside the large spectrum subspace, producing a localized counting lemma for subsets of finite abelian groups.
The paper establishes the existence of positive constants c and c_IP for the IP Szemeredi theorem over finite fields and gives strong quantitative bounds in the special cases of Roth and IP-Roth theorems.
The author proves f(N) ≫ N exp(−(2√(log(24/7))+o(1))√(log log N)) for the largest harmonic-triple-free subset of [N], matching the form of the best 3-AP-free lower bound with log N replaced by log log N.
A witness-split and window-pruning SAT framework finds no 44-element 3-AP-free subset of [1,212] but leaves two resistant instances unsolved.
