Double Sums of Kloosterman Sums in Finite Fields

Number Theory 2019-03-26 v1

Abstract

We bound double sums of Kloosterman sums over a finite field Fq{\mathbb F}_{q}, with one or both parameters ranging over an affine space over its prime subfield FpFq{\mathbb F}_p \subseteq {\mathbb F}_{q} . These are finite fields analogues of a series of recent results by various authors in finite fields and residue rings. Our results are based on recent advances in additive combinatorics in arbitrary finite field.
