We introduce a modification of the linear sieve whose weights satisfy strong factorization properties, and consequently equidistribute primes up to size $x$ in arithmetic progressions to moduli up to $x^{10/17}$. This surpasses the level of…

The purpose of this paper is twofold: 1) Applications of Gallagher's larger sieve modulo prime squares do not work. In some relevant cases we can transform the residue class information modulo $p^2$ to more suitable residue information…

Motivated by applications to the study of L-functions, we develop an asymptotic version of the large sieve inequality for linear forms in primitive Dirichlet characters.

In this article, we continue our recent investigations on bilinear sums and additive energies with modular square roots. Here we improve our recent results for the case when the ranges of variables are large. We use these results to make…

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…

We establish new mean value theorems for primes of size $x$ in arithmetic progressions to moduli as large as $x^{3/5-\epsilon}$ when summed with suitably well-factorable weights. This extends well-known work of Bombieri, Friedlander and…

We prove an essentially optimal large sieve inequality for self-dual Eisenstein series of varying levels. This bound can alternatively be interpreted as a large sieve inequality for rationals ordered by height. The method of proof is…

We present new bounds for the Berezin number inequalities which improve on the existing bounds. We also obtain bounds for the Berezin norm of operators as well as the sum of two operators.

In this article, we obtain an explicit version of Heath-Brown's large sieve inequality for quadratic characters and discuss its applications to $L$-functions and quadratic fields.

We formulate and prove a large sieve inequality for quadratic characters over a number field. To do this, we introduce the notion of an n-th order Hecke family. We develop the basic theory of these Hecke families, including versions of the…

Let $q=p^\alpha$ be a fixed prime power, $k\geq 2$ be an integer. We give a new upper bound for the size of $k$-wise $q$-modular $L$-avoiding $L$-intersecting set systems, where $L$ is any proper subset of $\{0, \ldots , q-1\}$. Our proof…

This paper is motivated by the following question in sieve theory. Given a subset $X\subset [N]$ and $\alpha\in (0,1/2)$. Suppose that $|X\pmod p|\leq (\alpha+o(1))p$ for every prime $p$. How large can $X$ be? On the one hand, we have the…

We modify the approach to the arithmetical form of the large sieve by relying on the Parseval identity rather than on an approximate Bessel inequality and as a consequence, improve on the weighted large sieve inequality beyond what was…
