Abstract

If q1,..., qm: Z → Z are polynomials with zero constant terms and E ⊂ Z has positive upper Banach density, then we show that the set E ∩ (E - q1 (p - 1)) ∩... ∩ (E - qm (p - 1)) is nonempty for some prime p. We also prove mean convergence for the associated averages along the prime numbers, conditional to analogous convergence results along the full integers. This generalizes earlier results of the authors, of Wooley and Ziegler, and of Bergelson, Leibman and Ziegler.
