Let $AP_k=\{a,a+d,\ldots,a+(k-1)d\}$ be an arithmetic progression. For $ε>0$ we call a set $AP_k(ε)=\{x_0,\ldots,x_{k-1}\}$ an $ε$-approximate arithmetic progression if for some $a$ and $d$, $|x_i-(a+id)|<εd$ holds for all $i\in\{0,1\ldots,k-1\}$. Complementing earlier results of Dumitrescu, in this paper we study numerical aspects of Van der Waerden, Szemeredi and Furstenberg-Katznelson like results in which arithmetic progressions and their higher dimensional extensions are replaced by their $ε$-approximation.
