Abstract Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_p$ . We say that multilinear form $\alpha \colon V^k \to \mathbb{F}_p$ in $k$ variables is $d$ - approximately symmetric if the partition rank of difference (x_1, \ldots, x_k) \alpha (x_{\pi (1)}, x_{\pi (k)})$ at most for every permutation $\pi \in \textrm{Sym}_k$ In work concerning inverse theorem Gowers uniformity $\|\!\c...
