We give a new proof of a_4\phi_3 summation due to G.E. Andrews and confirm another_4\phi_3 summation conjectured by him recently. Some variations of these two_4\phi_3 summations are also given.

We propose an iterative algorithm for the numerical computation of sums of squares of polynomials approximating given data at prescribed interpolation points. The method is based on the definition of a convex functional $G$ arising from the…

We prove a spectral summation formula for the product of four Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight cusp forms in Kohnen's subspace. The other side of the formula involves certain generalized class numbers of pairs of quadratic forms…

We give a new bound on the number of collinear triples for two arbitrary subsets of a finite field. This improves on existing results which rely on the Cauchy inequality. We then us this to provide a new bound on trilinear and quadrilinear…

In this paper we continue our study, begun in part I, of the exceptional set of integers, not restricted by elementary congruence conditions, which cannot be represented as sums of three or four squares of primes. We correct a serious…

Let A be a subset of Z / NZ, and let R be the set of large Fourier coefficients of A. Properties of R have been studied in works of M.-C. Chang and B. Green. Our result is the following : the number of quadruples (r_1, r_2, r_3, r_4) \in…

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 $S = \sum \pm v_i$. Boppana and Holzman (2017) proved that at least 13/32 of these sums satisfy $|S| \le 1$. Here we improve…

The problem of representing a given positive integer as a sum of four squares of integers has been widely concerned for a long time, and for a given positive odd $n$ one can find a representation by doing arithmetic in a maximal order of…

By assuming some widely-believed arithmetic conjectures, we show that the task of accepting a number that is representable as a sum of $d\geq2$ squares subjected to given congruence conditions is NP-complete. On the other hand, we develop…
