Abstract

In this paper, we study the classification of sequences containing arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. First, we deal with the question how the polynomial map n^s can be extended so that it contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Under some growth conditions, we construct sequences which contain arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Also, we give a uniform and explicit arithmetic progression rank bound for a large class of sequences. Consequently, a dichotomy result is deduced on the finiteness of the arithmetic progression rank of certain sequences. Therefore, in this paper, we see a way to determine the finiteness of the arithmetic progression rank of various sequences satisfying some growth conditions.
