Progression in a Bohr set from successive minima ($|P|\ge c(d,\rho )|G|$)

For a cyclic group $G$, a rank-$d$ phase-radius-$\rho$ Bohr set contains a symmetric proper generalized arithmetic progression of rank at most $d+1$ and cardinality at least $c(d,\rho )|G|$. The constant can be taken to depend only on $d$ and $\rho$. This geometry-of-numbers consequence follows by applying successive minima to the lattice recording the simultaneous character congruences; any cyclic subgroup factor can be represented by one additional progression coordinate. It is stronger than finding just one long ordinary progression.
