Let $\Lambda(1,n)$ be the $(1,n)$-th Fourier coefficients of $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form and $d_3(n)$ denotes the triple divisor function. This paper establishes non-trivial bounds for the averages of these arithmetic functions…

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 combine a classical idea of Postnikov (1956) with the method of Korobov (1974) for estimating double Weyl sums, deriving new bounds on short character sums when the modulus $q$ has a small core $\prod_{p\mid q}p$. Using this estimate, we…

In this paper, we study Lie superalgebras of $2\times 2$ matrix-valued first-order differential operators on the complex line. We first completely classify all such superalgebras of finite dimension. Among the finite-dimensional…

We extend some methods of bounding exponential sums of the type $\displaystyle\sum_{n\le N}e^{2\pi iag^n/p}$ to deal with the case when $g$ is not necessarily a primitive root. We also show some recent results of Shkredov concerning…

We investigate the sums $(1/\sqrt{H}) \sum_{X < n \leq X+H} \chi(n)$, where $\chi$ is a fixed non-principal Dirichlet character modulo a prime $q$, and $0 \leq X \leq q-1$ is uniformly random. Davenport and Erd\H{o}s, and more recently…

We study SOS properties of biquadratic forms. For the class of partially symmetric biquadratic forms, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for positive semi-definiteness and prove that every PSD partially symmetric biquadratic…

We consider Mertens' function M(x,q,a) in arithmetic progression, Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis (GRH), we show an upper bound that is uniform for all moduli which are not too large. For the proof, a former method of K.…

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 E be a separable (or the dual of a separable) symmetric function space, let M be a semifinite von Neumann algebra and let E(M) be the associated noncommutative function space. Let $(\epsilon_k)_k$ be a Rademacher sequence, on some…

Motivated by the problem of spherical summability of products of Fourier series, we study the boundedness of the bilinear Bochner-Riesz multipliers $(1-|\xi|^2-|\eta|^2)^\delta_+$ and we make some advances in this investigation. We obtain…

In this paper, first we prove that all finite dimensional special Heisenberg Lie superalgebras with even center have same dimension, say $(2m+1\mid n)$ for some non-negative integers $m,n$ and are isomorphism with them. Further, for a…

We show how the proof of the Grothendieck Theorem for jointly completely bounded bilinear forms on C*-algebras by Haagerup and Musat can be modified in such a way that the method of proof is essentially C*-algebraic. To this purpose, we use…

Let $G\cong \mathbb Z/m_1\mathbb Z\times\ldots\times \mathbb Z/m_r\mathbb Z$ be a finite abelian group with $m_1\mid\ldots\mid m_r=\exp(G)$. The Kemperman Structure Theorem characterizes all subsets $A,\,B\subseteq G$ satisfying…

This paper proves Burgess bounds for short mixed character sums in multi-dimensional settings. The mixed character sums we consider involve both an exponential evaluated at a real-valued multivariate polynomial, and a product of…

Fix nonzero ideal sheaves a_1,...,a_r on a normal Q-Gorenstein complex variety X. Fix any positive real number c, and consider the multiplier ideal J of the sum a_1+...+a_r with weighting coefficient c. We construct an exact sequence…

We prove prime exponential sums have no better than square root cancellation on average on short intervals, in the sense that $$\frac{1}{x} \sum_{-y< n\le x} \left|\sum_{\substack{n< m \le n+y\\ 1\le m \le x}} \Lambda(m) \mathrm{e}(\alpha…

Bilinear Fourier multipliers of the form $e^{i (|\xi| + |\eta|+ |\xi + \eta|)} \sigma (\xi, \eta)$ are considered. It is proved that if $\sigma (\xi, \eta)$ is in the H\"ormander class $S^{m}_{1,0} (\mathbb{R}^{2n})$ with $m=-(n+1)/2$ then…

For large enough (but fixed) prime powers $q$, and trace functions to squarefree moduli in $\mathbb{F}_q[u]$ with slopes at most $1$ at infinity, and no Artin--Schreier factors in their geometric global monodromy, we come close to…
