We obtain several asymptotic formulas for the sum of the divisor function $\tau(n)$ with $n \le x$ in an arithmetic progressions $n \equiv a \pmod q$ on average over $a$ from a set of several consecutive elements from set of reduced…
In the present paper, we generalize some of the results on Kloosterman sums proven in \cite{BG} for prime moduli to general moduli. This requires to establish the corresponding additive properties of the reciprocal set $$…
In this paper we give a modular interpretation of the $k$-th symmetric power $L$-function of the Kloosterman family of exponential sums in characteristics 2 and 3, and in the case of $p=2$ and $k$ odd give the precise 2-adic Newton polygon.…
For a prime $p$, we consider Kloosterman sums $$ K_{p}(a) = \sum_{x\in \F_p^*} \exp(2 \pi i (x + ax^{-1})/p), \qquad a \in \F_p^*, $$ over a finite field of $p$ elements. It is well known that due to results of Deligne, Katz and Sarnak, the…
We establish power-saving estimates for general bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums modulo arbitrary q, including when both variables are shorter than the Polya-Vinogradov range. As an application, we obtain power-saving asymptotics for…
We establish improved bounds for bilinear forms with Kloosterman fractions of the form ${\sum\sum}_{m,n} \alpha_m \beta_n e(a\overline{m}/(bn))$ with $M<m\le 2M$, $N < n \le 2N$ and $(m,n)=1$. Our approach works directly with arbitrary…
The classical $n$-variable Kloosterman sums over finite fields are well understood by Deligne's theorem from complex point of view and by Sperber's theorem from $p$-adic point of view. In this paper, we study the complex and $p$-adic…
For large enough (but fixed) prime powers $q$, and trace functions to squarefree moduli in $\mathbb{F}_q[u]$ with slopes at most $1$ at infinity, and no Artin--Schreier factors in their geometric global monodromy, we come close to…
We bound double sums of Kloosterman sums over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_{q}$, with one or both parameters ranging over an affine space over its prime subfield ${\mathbb F}_p \subseteq {\mathbb F}_{q} $. These are finite fields analogues…
The series of some new estimates for the sums of the type \[ S_{q}(x;f)\,=\,\mathop{{\sum}'}\limits_{n\leqslant x}f(n)e_{q}(an^{*}+bn) \] is obtained. Here $q$ is a sufficiently large integer, $\sqrt{q}(\log{q})\!\ll\!x\leqslant q$, $a,b$…
We present a lower bound for the classical Kloosterman sum $S(a,b;c)$ where $(ab,c)=1$ and $c$ is an odd integer. We apply this lower bound for Kloosterman sums to derive an explicit lower bound in Petersson's trace formula, subject to a…
We prove non-trivial upper bounds for general bilinear forms with trace functions of bountiful sheaves, where the supports of two variables can be arbitrary subsets in $\mathbf{F}_p$ of suitable sizes. This essentially recovers the…
We define the Kloosterman sum for $SL_4$ over the Kloosterman set via the Bruhat decomposition and stratify the Kloosterman set using the reduced word decomposition of the Weyl group element. The Kloosterman sum for an $SL_4$-long word is…
Let $L$ be an even lattice of odd rank with discriminant group $L'/L$, and let $\alpha,\beta \in L'/L$. We prove the Weil bound for the Kloosterman sums $S_{\alpha,\beta}(m,n,c)$ of half-integral weight for the Weil Representation attached…
We obtain new bounds for short sums of isotypic trace functions associated to some sheaf modulo prime $p$ of bounded conductor, twisted by the Mobius function and also by the generalised divisor function. These trace functions include…
We obtain statistical results on the possible distribution of all partial sums of a Kloosterman sum modulo a prime, by computing explicitly the support of the limiting random Fourier series of our earlier functional limit theorem for…
A formula of Kuznetsov allows one to interpret a smooth sum of Kloosterman sums as a sum over the spectrum of $GL(2)$ automorphic forms. In this paper, we construct a similar formula for the first hyper-Kloosterman sums using $GL(3)$…
We prove new bounds on bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums, complementing and improving a series of results by \'E. Fouvry, E. Kowalski and Ph. Michel (2014), V. Blomer, \'E. Fouvry, E. Kowalski, Ph. Michel and D. Mili\'cevi\'c (2017), E.…
Wolstenholme's type summations involve certain powers of all residues $k$ modulo some prime number $p$. We first consider the sums of double or triple products of certain powers of all residues, e.g., the sums of the terms $(a+k)^m(b+k)^n$…
We obtain several estimates for bilinear form with Kloosterman sums. Such results can be interpreted as a measure of cancellations amongst with parameters from short intervals. In particular, for certain ranges of parameters we improve some…
