The corners theorem and Roth's theorem #

This file proves the corners theorem and Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions of length three.

noncomputable def cornersTheoremBound (ε : ℝ) :

An explicit form for the constant in the corners theorem.

Note that this depends on SzemerediRegularity.bound, which is a tower-type exponential. This means cornersTheoremBound is in practice absolutely tiny.
