In this paper we compute the sum of the $k$-th powers over any finite commutative unital rings, thus generalizing known results for finite fields, the rings of integers modulo $n$ or the ring of Gaussian integers modulo $n$. As an…

We describe gradings by finite abelian groups on the associative algebras of infinite matrices with finitely many nonzero entries, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.

We obtain a nontrivial bound on the number of solutions to the equation $$ A^{x_1} + \ldots + A^{x_\nu} = A^{x_{\nu+1}} + \ldots + A^{x_{2\nu}}, \quad 1 \le x_1, \ldots,x_{2\nu} \le \tau, $$ with a fixed $n\times n$ matrix $A$ over a finite…

In this paper, we study the polynomial Gauss sums over finite fields, and present an analogue of Davenport-Hasse's theorem for the entire polynomial Gauss sums, which is a generalization of the previous result obtained by Hayes.

We prove a general independent equidistribution result for Gauss sums associated to $n$ monomials in $r$ variable multiplicative characters over a finite field, which generalizes several previous equidistribution results for Gauss and…

We define the notions of non-abelian exotic Gauss sums and of exotic matrix Kloosterman sums, the latter one generalizing the notions of Katz's exotic Kloosterman sums and of twisted matrix Kloosterman sums. Using Kondo's Gauss sum and…

We provide explicit formulas for quadratic Gauss sums over $\mathbb{Z}^n/c\mathbb{Z}^n$, which generalize some of the existing formulas, e.g., Skoruppa and Zagier's (for $n=2$), and Iwaniec and Kowalski's (for arbitrary $n$). We then give…

We show that under certain general conditions, short sums of $\ell$-adic trace functions over finite fields follow a normal distribution asymptotically when the origin varies, generalizing results of Erd\H{o}s-Davenport, Mak-Zaharescu and…

In this paper, we consider mixed sums of generalized polygonal numbers. Specifically, we obtain a finiteness condition for universality of such sums; this means that it suffices to check representability of a finite subset of the positive…

We estimate mixed character sums of polynomial values over elements of a finite field $\mathbb F_{q^r}$ with sparse representations in a fixed ordered basis over the subfield $\mathbb F_q$. First we use a combination of the…

C. F. Gauss discovered a beautiful formula for the number of irreducible polynomials of a given degree over a finite field. Assuming just a few elementary facts in field theory and the exclusion-inclusion formula, we show how one see the…

We study sums of arithmetic functions, defined on Gaussian integers and taken over those pairs of integers whose coordinates give rise to a singular system.

We prove that generating subspaces of matrix rings over finite fields are counted by polynomials. We use this result to define and study two-variable versions of polynomials counting isomorphism classes of absolutely irreducible…

We show that the multiple divisor functions of integers in invertible residue classes modulo a prime number, as well as the Fourier coefficients of GL(N) Maass cusp forms for all N larger than 2, satisfy a central limit theorem in a…

We define epsilon factors for irreducible representations of finite general linear groups using Macdonald's correspondence. These epsilon factors satisfy multiplicativity, and are expressible as products of Gauss sums. The tensor product…

Using probability theory we derive an expression for the sum of a series of definite integrals involving upper incomplete Gamma functions. In the proof, a normal variance mixture distribution with Beta mixing distributions plays a crucial…

We obtain a lower bound on the multiplicative order of Gauss periods which generate normal bases over finite fields. This bound improves the previous bound of J. von zur Gathen and I. E. Shparlinski.

We calculate Gaussian averages of arbitrary exponentials of the matrix variable $X$ with the help of superintegrability, which provides explicit expressions for Schur averages. As in the simpler cases the answer is expressed in terms of…

The classical quadratic Gauss sum can be thought of as an exponential sum attached to a quadratic form on a cyclic group. We introduce an equivariant version of Gauss sum for arbitrary finite quadratic forms, which is an exponential sum…
