We first show joint uniform distribution of values of Kloosterman sums or Birch sums among all extensions of a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, for almost all couples of arguments in $\mathbb{F}_q^\times$, as well as lower bounds on…
In this paper, we establish some theorems on the distribution of primes in higher-order progressions on average.
We obtain optimal lower bounds for moments of theta functions. On the other hand, we also get new upper bounds on individual theta values and moments of theta functions on average over primes. The upper bounds are based on bounds of…
Let $v_1$, $v_2$, ..., $v_n$ be real numbers whose squares add up to 1. Consider the $2^n$ signed sums of the form $S = \sum \pm v_i$. Holzman and Kleitman (1992) proved that at least 3/8 of these sums satisfy $|S| \le 1$. This 3/8 bound…

We prove power-saving bounds for general Kloosterman sums on $\operatorname{Sp}(4)$ associated to all Weyl elements via a stratification argument coupled with $p$-adic stationary phase methods. We relate these Kloosterman sums to the…
We first study the mean value of certain restricted divisor sums involving the Chowla-Walum sums, improving in particular a recent estimate given by Iannucci. The aim of the second part of this work is the generalization of the previous…
An asymptotic formula for the sum of the first n primes is derived. This result improves the previous results of P. Dusart. Using this asymptotic expansion, we prove the conjectures of R. Mandl and G. Robin on the upper and the lower bound…

In this paper, we investigate the large deviations of sums of weighted random variables that are approximately independent, generalizing and improving some of the results of Montgomery and Odlyzko. We are motivated by examples arising from…
Corentin Perret-Gentil proved, under some very general conditions, that short sums of $\ell$-adic trace functions over finite fields of varying center converges in law to a Gaussian random variable or vector. The main inputs are…
We show that there are short intervals $[x,x+y]$ containing $\gg y^{1/10}$ numbers expressible as the sum of two squares, which is many more than the average when $y=o( (\log{x})^{5/9})$. We obtain similar results for sums of two squares in…
This paper introduces a general technique for estimating the absolute value of pure Gaussian sums of order k over a prime p for a class of composite order k. The new estimate improves the classical estimate by a factor of about 2 or better…
An asymptotic formula with a square root error term is obtained for the number of elements with given trace and norm in a finite semisimple algebra over a finite field. This extends previous results from finite etale algebras (commutative…
In this paper, we establish a theorem on the distribution of primes in quadratic progressions on average.
The Shapley-Folkman theorem shows that Minkowski averages of uniformly bounded sets tend to be convex when the number of terms in the sum becomes much larger than the ambient dimension. In optimization, Aubin and Ekeland [1976] show that…
Kloosterman sums play a special role in analytic number theory, for expressing the integer Fourier coefficients of modular forms as an infinite sum of Bessel functions, also known as Rademacher formula. The generalization to vector-valued…
Let $k_i\ (i=1,2,\ldots,t)$ be natural numbers with $k_1>k_2>\cdots>k_t>0$, $k_1\geq 2$ and $t<k_1.$ Given real numbers $\alpha_{ji}\ (1\leq j\leq t,\ 1\leq i\leq s)$, we consider polynomials of the shape…
