Here is a survey article which appeared in a book called "Fourier analysis and Convexity" (ANHA, Birkahauser '04)

Discrete maximal functions and ergodic theorems related to polynomials.

The details of the proofs can be found in these two earlier papers:

"Discrete analogues in harmonic analysis: spherical averages" (Annals of Math., v.155, p.189-208)

Here one can find some expository notes (jointly with Neil Lyall) and some links on Ramsey Theory.
