We show that if $Asubset {1,ldots ,N}$ does not contain any nontrivial solutions to the equation $x+y+z=3w$ , then $$egin{eqnarray}|A|leqslant frac{N}{exp (c(log N)^{1/7})},end{eqnarray}$$ where $c>0$ is some absolute constant. In view of Behrend’s construction, this bound is of the right shape: the exponent $1/7$ cannot be replaced by any constant larger than $1/2$ . We also establish a related result, which says that sumsets $A+A+A$ contain long arithmetic progressions if $Asubset {1,ldots ,N}$ , or high-dimensional affine subspaces if $Asubset mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ , even if $A$ has density of the shape above.
