In this paper, we prove a large sieve inequality for quartic Dirichlet characters. The result is analogous to large sieve inequalities for the quadratic and cubic Dirichlet characters.
In this paper we study the following problem: for a given bounded positive function $f$ on a filtered probability space can we find another function (a multiplier) $m$, $0\le m\le 1$, such that the function $mf$ is not ``too small'' but its…
We use the Aubry-Perret bound for singular curves, a generalization of the Hasse-Weil bound, to prove the following curious result about rational functions over finite fields: Let $f(X),g(X)\in\Bbb F_q(X)\setminus\{0\}$ be such that $q$ is…
The Li--Wan sieve is extended to multisets when the underlying set is symmetric. The main ingredient of the proof is the Mobius inversion formula on the poset of partitions of $\{1,2,\dots,k\}$ ordered by refinement. As illustrative…
Motivated by asymptotic phenomena of moduli spaces of higher rank stable sheaves on algebraic surfaces, we study the Picard number of the moduli space of one-dimensional stable sheaves supported in a sufficiently positive divisor class on a…
This paper gives a sharp upper bound for the Betti numbers of a finitely generated multigraded $R$-module, where $R=\Bbbk [x_{1},...,x_{m}]$ is the polynomial ring over a field $\Bbbk$ in $m$ variables. The bound is given in terms of the…
We prove new bounds for the Fourier coefficients of Jacobi forms using a method of Iwaniec. In view of the Fourier-Jacobi expansion of degree two Siegel modular forms, we can use these to obtain strong bounds on fundamental Fourier…
Moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are frequently applied in geometric function theory, see e.g. the Handbook by K\"uhnau. Yet their exact values are known only in a few special cases. Previously, the class of planar domains with polygonal…
In this paper, we present upper bounds for the depth of some classes of polyhedra, including: polyhedra with finite fundamental group, polyhedra $P$ with abelian or free $\pi_1(P)$ and finitely generated $H_i(tilde{P};\mathbb{Z}$,…
We establish upper bounds for shifted moments of modular $L$-functions to a fixed modulus as well as quadratic twists of modular $L$-functions under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. Our results are then used to establish bounds for…
For Banach spaces of analytic functions on the disc for which the polynomials are dense and their pointt evaluations continuous, we prove the following: If they contain a function such that the limit superior of its modulus is infinite…
Hypergeometric functions over finite fields were introduced by Greene in the 1980s as a finite field analogue of classical hypergeometric series. These functions, and their generalizations, naturally lend themselves to, and have been widely…
We give a unified description of the modular and quasi-modular functions used in Viazovska's proof of the best packing bounds in dimension 8 and the proof by Cohn, Kumar, Miller, Radchenko, and Viazovska of the best packing bound in…
Working in positive characteristic, we show how one can use information about the dimension of moduli spaces of rational curves on a Fano variety $X$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ to obtain strong estimates for the number of $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$-points…
Upper bounds are derived for codes in Stiefel and Grassmann manifolds with given minimal chordal distance. They stem from upper bounds for codes in products of unit spheres and projective spaces. The new bounds are asymptotically better…
In general the multiplicity one theorem fails for Fourier-Jacobi models over finite fields. In this paper we prove that there is an upper bound for the multiplicities of Fourier-Jacobi models which is independent of $q$. As a consequence,…
We introduce a new probabilistic model of the primes consisting of integers that survive the sieving process when a random residue class is selected for every prime modulus below a specific bound. From a rigorous analysis of this model, we…
We develop an approach to finding upper bounds for the number of arithmetic operations necessary for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups. The approach takes advantage of the intrinsic orbital structure of…
We study mixed weak estimates of Sawyer type for maximal operators associated to the family of Young functions $\Phi(t)=t^r(1+\log^+t)^{\delta}$, where $r\geq 1$ and $\delta\geq 0$. More precisely, if $u$ and $v^r$ are $A_1$ weights, and…
One of the main themes in this thesis is the description of the signature of both the infinite place and the finite places in cubic function fields of any characteristic and quartic function fields of characteristic at least 5. For these…
