In this paper we obtain a new fully explicit constant for the P\'olya-Vinogradov inequality for primitive characters. Given a primitive character $\chi$ modulo $q$, we prove the following upper bound \begin{align*} \left| \sum_{1 \le n\le…
We show that even mild improvements of the Polya-Vinogradov inequality would imply significant improvements of Burgess' bound on character sums. Our main ingredients are a lower bound on certain types of character sums (coming from works of…
In this paper we obtain a new fully explicit constant for the P\'olya-Vinogradov inequality for squarefree modulus. Given a primitive character $\chi$ to squarefree modulus $q$, we prove the following upper bound \begin{align*} \left|…
In this paper we obtain a variation of the P\'{o}lya--Vinogradov inequality with the sum restricted to a certain height. Assume $\chi$ to be a primitive character modulo $q$, $\epsilon > 0$ and $N\le q^{1-\gamma}$, with $0\le \gamma \le…
For a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$, we define $M(\chi)=\max_{t } |\sum_{n \leq t} \chi(n)|$. In this paper, we study this quantity for characters of a fixed odd order $g\geq 3$. Our main result provides a further…
In this paper we obtain a new constant in the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality. Our argument follows previously established techniques which use the Fourier expansion of an interval to reduce to Gauss sums. Our improvement comes from…
We study exponential sums whose coefficients are completely multiplicative and belong to the complex unit disc. Our main result shows that such a sum has substantial cancellation unless the coefficient function is essentially a Dirichlet…
We provide an index bound for character sums of polynomials over finite fields. This improves the Weil bound for high degree polynomials with small indices, as well as polynomials with large indices that are generated by cyclotomic mappings…
In 1918 Polya and Vinogradov gave an upper bound for the maximal size of character sums which still remains the best known general estimate. One of the main results of this paper provides a substantial improvement of the Polya-Vinogradov…
It is known that extreme characters of several inductive limits of compact groups exhibit multiplicativity in a certain sense. In the paper, we formulate such multiplicativity for inductive limit quantum groups and provide explicit examples…
We obtain explicit lower bounds on multiplicative order of elements that have more general form than finite field Gauss period. In a partial case of Gauss period this bound improves the previous bound of O.Ahmadi, I.E.Shparlinski and…
We obtain a lower bound on the multiplicative order of Gauss periods which generate normal bases over finite fields. This bound improves the previous bound of J. von zur Gathen and I. E. Shparlinski.
It is well-known that cancellation in short character sums (e.g. Burgess' estimates) yields bounds on the least quadratic nonresidue. Scant progress has been made on short character sums since Burgess' work, so it is desirable to find a new…
Let $g \geq 3$ be fixed and odd, and for large $q$ let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ of order $g$. Conditionally on GRH we improve the existing upper bounds in the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality for $\chi$, showing…
We obtain a new bound for incomplete Gauss sums modulo primes. Our argument falls under the framework of Vinogradov's method which we use to reduce the problem under consideration to bounding the number of solutions to two distinct systems…
We propose upper bounds for the number of modular constituents of the restriction modulo $p$ of a complex irreducible character of a finite group, and for its decomposition numbers, in certain cases.
In this paper we proved a new numerically explicit version of the P\'{o}lya--Vinogradov inequality. Our proof is based on the new ideas of V.A. Bykovskii and improves a recent inequality obtained by C. Pomerance.
A sharp quantitative polygonal isoperimetric inequality is obtained.
In this work, we have proved a version of the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for variable exponents. After we use the variational method to establish the existence of solution for a class of Choquard equations involving the…
