For $n \geq 3$, an asymptotic formula is derived for the number of representations of a sufficiently large natural number $N$ as a sum of $r = 2^n + 1$ summands, each of which is an $n$-th power of natural numbers $x_i$, $i = \overline{1,…

Given a positive definite binary quadratic form f, let r(n) = |{(x,y): f(x,y)=n}| denote its representation function. In this paper we study linear correlations of these functions. For example, if r_1, ..., r_k are representation functions,…
