Efficient Equidistribution of Nilsequences
We give improved bounds for the equidistribution of (multiparameter) nilsequences subject to any degree filtration. The bounds we obtain are single exponential in dimension, improving on double exponential bounds of Green and Tao. To obtain these bounds, we avoid "induction of dimension" which is ubiquitous throughout higher order Fourier analysis.
These improved equidistribution results are a crucial ingredient in joint work with Sah and Sawhney proving quasi-polynomial bounds for $U^{s + 1}…
