Abstract

We prove that the set of (x1,,xd)[0,1)d(x_1, \ldots, x_d)\in [0,1)^d, such that limNn=1Nexp(2πi(x1n++xdnd))=0, \underline{\lim}_{N\to \infty}\left| \sum_{n=1}^N\exp(2 \pi i (x_1n+\ldots + x_dn^d)) \right| =0, contains a dense Gδ\mathcal{G}_\delta set in [0,1)d[0,1)^d and has a positive Hausdorff dimension. Similar statements are also established for the generalised Gaussian sums n=1Nexp(2πixnd),x[0,1). \sum_{n=1}^N\exp(2\pi i x n^d), \qquad x \in [0,1).
