Intersective -- Bibliography -- Index -- Back Cover N2 - Two closely related topics, higher order Bohr sets and higher order almost automorphy, are investigated in this paper. Both of them are related to nilsystems. In the first part, the problem which can be viewed as the higher order version of an old question concerning Bohr sets is studied: for any d\in \mathbb{N} does the collection of \{n\in \mathbb{Z}: S\cap (S-n)\cap\ldots\cap (S-dn)\neq \emptyset\} with S syndetic coincide with that of Nil_d Bohr_0-sets? In the second part, the notion of d-step almost automorphic systems with d\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\} is introduced and investigated, which is the generalization of the classical almost automorphic ones UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/orpp/detail.action?docID=4901862 ER -
