Modular hyperbolas and bilinear forms of Kloosterman sums

Number Theory 2019-05-02 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

In this paper we study incidences for hyperbolas in Fp\mathbf{F}_p and show how linear sum--product methods work for such curves. As an application we give a purely combinatorial proof of a nontrivial upper bound for bilinear forms of Kloosterman sums.
