We prove bounds for the number of solutions to $$a_1 + \dots + a_k = a_1' + \dots + a_k'$$ over $N$-element sets of reals, which are sufficiently convex or near-convex. A near-convex set will be the image of a set with small additive…

Given a finite abelian group $G$ and a subset $S\subseteq G$, we let $N_{G,\ S}$ be the smallest integer $N$ such that for any subset $A\subseteq G$ with $N$ elements, we have $g+S\subseteq A$ for some $g\in G$. Using the probabilistic…

We describe all sets $A \subseteq \F_p$ which represent the quadratic residues $R \subseteq \F_p$ as $R=A+A$ and $R=A\hat{+} A$. Also, we consider the case of an approximate equality $R \approx A+A$ and $R \approx A\hat{+} A$ and prove that…

In this paper, we define a parametric variant of generalized Euler sums and call them the (alternating) parametric Euler $T$-sums. By using the contour integration method and residue theorem, we establish several explicit formulae for the…

Suppose $\rho_1, \rho_2$ are two $\ell$-adic Galois representations of the absolute Galois group of a number field, such that the algebraic monodromy group of one of the representations is connected and the representations are locally…

The $T$-adic exponential sum of a polynomial in one variable is studied. An explicit arithmetic polygon in terms of the highest two exponents of the polynomial is proved to be a lower bound of the Newton polygon of the $C$-function of the…

A family of disjoint pairs of finite sets $\mathcal{P}=\{(A_i,B_i)\mid i\in[m]\}$ is called a Bollob\'as system if $A_i\cap B_j\neq\emptyset$ for every $i\neq j$, and a skew Bollob\'as system if $A_i\cap B_j\neq\emptyset$ for every $i<j$.…

For positive integers $a,b,c$, and an integer $n$, the number of integer solutions $(x,y,z) \in \mathbb Z^3$ of $a \frac{x(x-1)}{2} + b \frac{y(y-1)}{2} + c \frac{z(z-1)}{2} = n$ is denoted by $t(a,b,c;n)$. In this article, we prove some…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a unital C*-algebra. Then the theory of Hilbert C*-modules tells that \begin{align*} \sum_{i=1}^{n}(a_ia_i^*)^\frac{1}{2}\leq \sqrt{n} \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_ia_i^*\right)^\frac{1}{2}, \quad \forall n \in \mathbb{N},…

In this paper, we present series representations of the remainders in the expansions for $2/(e^t+1)$, $\mbox{sech} t$ and $\coth t$. For example, we prove that for $t > 0$ and $N\in\mathbb{N}:=\{1, 2, \ldots\}$, \[\mbox{sech}\,…

In its usual form, Freiman's 3k-4 theorem states that if A and B are subsets of the integers of size k with small sumset (of size close to 2k) then they are very close to arithmetic progressions. Our aim in this paper is to strengthen this…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $f \in R[X_1,\ldots,X_k]$ a multivariate polynomial, and $G$ a finite subgroup of the group of units of $R$ satisfying a certain constraint, which always holds if $R$ is a field. Then, we evaluate $\sum…

In this paper, we consider sums of class numbers of the type $\sum_{m\equiv a\pmod{p}} H(4n-m^2)$, where $p$ is an odd prime, $n\in \mathbb{N},$ and $a\in \mathbb{Z}$. By showing that these are coefficients of mixed mock modular forms, we…

We prove non-trivial bounds for bilinear forms with hyper-Kloosterman sums with characters modulo a prime $q$ which, for both variables of length $M$, are non-trivial as soon as $M\geq q^{3/8+\delta}$ for any $\delta>0$. This range, which…

In this paper, we provide an alternative proof of Donaldson's almost-holomorphic section theorem and symplectic Lefschetz pencil theorem, through constructions of certain special kind of Donaldson-type sections of the line bundle based on…

We represent a general bilinear Calder\'on-Zygmund operator as a sum of simple dyadic operators. The appearing dyadic operators also admit a simple proof of a sparse bound. In particular, the representation implies a so called sparse T1…

We study new identities related to the sums of adjacent terms in the Pell sequence, defined by $P_{n} := 2P_{n-1}+P_{n-2}$ for $ n\geq 2$ and $P_{0}=0, P_{1}=1$, and generalize these identities for many similar sequences. We prove that the…

A sequence of positive integers $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k)$ is called $\ell$-additive if $a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_k=\ell a_1$ or $\ell a_k$. In this paper, we prove that for all $k\geq3$, if $n$ is sufficiently large, then every permutation of…

Our previous theorems on exponential sums often did not apply or did not give sharp results when certain powers of a variable appearing in the polynomial were divisible by p. We remedy that defect in this paper by systematically applying…

For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…
