We prove new large sieve inequalities for the Fourier coefficients $\rho_{j\mathfrak{a}}(n)$ of exceptional Maass forms of a given level, weighted by sequences $(a_n)$ with sparse Fourier transforms - including two key types of sequences…

We obtain new results about the representation of almost all residues modulo a prime $p$ by a product of a small integer and also an element of small multiplicative subgroup of $({\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb Z})^*$. These results are based on some…

Given a training sample of size $m$ from a $d$-dimensional population, we wish to allocate a new observation $Z\in \R^d$ to this population or to the noise. We suppose that the difference between the distribution of the population and that…

We develop a sieve that can detect primes in multiplicatively structured sets under certain conditions. We apply it to obtain a new $L$-function free proof of Linnik's problem of bounding the least prime $p$ such that $p\equiv a\pmod q$…

In parameter estimation, assumptions about the model are typically considered which allow us to build optimal estimation methods under many statistical senses. However, it is usually the case where such models are inaccurately known or not…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we prove the following: If b is an integer greater than one, then the multiplicative order of b modulo N is larger than N^(1-\epsilon) for all N in a density one subset of the integers. If A is a…

We obtain a new lower bound on the size of value set f(F_p) of a sparse polynomial f in F_p[X] over a finite field of p elements when p is prime. This bound is uniform with respect of the degree and depends on some natural arithmetic…

We obtain new bounds on complete rational exponential sums with sparse polynomials modulo a prime, under some mild conditions on the degrees of the monomials of such polynomials. These bounds, when they apply, give explicit versions of a…

We develop a method for determining the density of squarefree values taken by certain multivariate integer polynomials that are invariants for the action of an algebraic group on a vector space. The method is shown to apply to the…

We show that the exponent of distribution of the sequence of squarefree numbers in arithmetic progressions of prime modulus is $\geq 2/3 + 1/57$, improving a result of Prachar from 1958. Our main tool is an upper bound for certain bilinear…

Let $f : \mathbf{N} \rightarrow \mathbf{C}$ be a bounded multiplicative function. Let $a$ be a fixed integer (say $a = 1$). Then $f$ is well-distributed on the progression $n \equiv a \pmod{q} \subset \{1,\dots, X\}$, for almost all primes…
