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.…

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…

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…

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 test the predictions of the L-functions Ratios Conjecture for the family of cuspidal newforms of weight k and level N, with either k fixed and N --> oo through the primes or N=1 and k --> oo. We study the main and lower order terms in…

We construct a binary linear code $C(O(3,q))$, associated with the orthogonal group $O(3,q)$. Here $q$ is a power of two. Then we obtain a recursive formula for the odd power moments of Kloosterman sums with trace one arguments in terms of…

We investigate the solubility of the congruence xy=1 (mod p), where p is a prime and x,y are restricted to lie in suitable short intervals. Our work relies on a mean value theorem for incomplete Kloosterman sums.

In the framework of generalized Oppenheim expansions we prove strong law of large numbers for lightly trimmed sums. In the first part of this work we identify a particular class of expansions for which we provide a convergence result…

We give a substantial improvement for the error term in the asymptotic formula for the smallest parts function $\mathrm{spt}(n)$ of Andrews. Our methods depend on an explicit bound for sums of Kloosterman sums of half integral weight on the…

We prove congruences, modulo a power of a prime p, for certain finite sums involving central binomial coefficients $\binom{2k}{k}$.

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…

In this paper, we construct two binary linear codes associated with multi-dimensional and $m -$multiple power Kloosterman sums (for any fixed $m$) over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. Here $q$ is a power of two. The former codes are dual…

We construct motives over the rational numbers associated with symmetric power moments of Kloosterman sums, and prove that their L-functions extend meromorphically to the complex plane and satisfy a functional equation conjectured by…

We give a purely combinatorial proof for a two-fold generalization of van der Waerden-Brauer's theorem and Hindman's theorem. We also give tower bounds for a finite version of it.

We investigate border ranks of twisted powers of polynomials and smoothability of symmetric powers of algebras. We prove that the latter are smoothable. For the former, we obtain upper bounds for the border rank in general and prove that…

Let $p\ge 7$, $q=p^m$. $K_q(a)=\sum_{x\in \mathbb{F}_{p^m}} \zeta^{\mathrm{Tr}^m_1(x^{p^m-2}+ax)}$ is the Kloosterman sum of $a$ on $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$, where $\zeta=e^{\frac{2\pi\sqrt{-1}}{p}}$. The value $1-\frac{2}{\zeta+\zeta^{-1}}$ of…
