An Introduction to Nilsequences
Kate Thomas
(University of Oxford)
Abstract
Nilsequences are sequences coming from Lie groups which play the role of additive characters in higher order Fourier analysis. In this talk, I will define these and give some basic examples without assuming any prior knowledge. I'll use this to state an equidistribution result due to Green and Tao, and compare what happens in this setting to the familiar case of sequences in the torus.
