We consider the distribution of polygonal paths joining the partial sums of normalized Kloosterman sums modulo an increasingly high power p^n of a fixed odd prime p, a pure depth-aspect analogue of theorems of Kowalski-Sawin and…

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 present certain bilinear estimates for commutators on Besov spaces with variable smoothness and integrability, and under no vanishing assumptions on the divergence of vector fields. Such commutator estimates are motivated…

The manuscript discusses how to incorporate random effects for quantile regression models for clustered data with focus on settings with many but small clusters. The paper has three contributions: (i) documenting that existing methods may…

We begin with an improvement to an extension result for subharmonic functions of Blanchet et al. With the aid of this improvement we then give extension results for subharmonic functions, for separately subharmonic functions, for harmonic…

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 introduce a simple criterion to check coercivity of bilinear forms on subspaces of Hilbert-spaces and Banach-spaces. The presented criterion allows to derive many standard and non-standard variants of Poincar\'e- and Friedrichs-type…

We study numerical invariants associated with the reduction of singularities of holomorphic foliation germs on $(\mathbb{C}^2, 0)$. Building on our previous work on generalized curve foliations, we extend explicit formulas for several…

We consider bilinear oscillatory integrals, i.e. pseudo-product operators whose symbol involves an oscillating factor. Lebesgue space inequalities are established, which give decay as the oscillation becomes stronger ; this extends the…

In the presence of a large parameter, such as mass or energy, leading behavior of individual Feynman diagrams often get cancelled in the sum. This is known to happen in large-$N_c$ QCD in the presence of a baryon, and also in the case of…

In this paper, we develop interval estimation methods for means of bounded random variables based on a sequential procedure such that the sampling is continued until the sample sum is no less than a prescribed threshold.

Let $K_{q^n}(a)$ be a Kloosterman sum over the finite field $\F_{q^n}$ of characteristic $p$. In this note so called subfield conjecture is proved in case $p>3$: if $a\ne0$ belongs to the proper subfield $\F_q$ of $\F_{q^n}$, then…

In this paper, we obtain some formulas for double nonlinear Euler sums involving harmonic numbers and alternating harmonic numbers. By using these formulas, we give new closed form sums of several quadratic Euler series through Riemann zeta…

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 $(a+k)^m(b+k)^n$…

This paper provides a technique for evaluating some nonlinear Gaussian sums in closed forms. The evaluation is obtained from the known values of simpler exponential sums.

We present new estimates for sums of the divisor function, and other similar arithmetic functions, in short intervals over function fields. (When the intervals are long, one obtains a good estimate from the Riemann hypothesis.) We obtain an…

In this paper, the decades-old clustering method k-means is revisited. The original distortion minimization model of k-means is addressed by a pure stochastic minimization procedure. In each step of the iteration, one sample is tentatively…

Using $E_8$ bundles, we construct some modular forms over $SL(2,{\bf Z})$, $\Gamma^0(2)$ and $\Gamma_0(2)$. By these modular forms, we get some new anomaly cancellation formulas of characteristic forms.

This paper describes algorithms to deal with nested symbolic sums over combinations of harmonic series, binomial coefficients and denominators. In addition it treats Mellin transforms and the inverse Mellin transformation for functions that…
