We prove new mean value theorems for primes in arithmetic progressions to moduli larger than $x^{1/2}$. Our main result shows that the primes are equidistributed for a fixed residue class over all moduli of size $x^{1/2+\delta}$ with a…

We propose a general method for optimization with semi-infinite constraints that involve a linear combination of functions, focusing on the case of the exponential function. Each function is lower and upper bounded on sub-intervals by…

We introduce a new method to bound bilinear (Type II) sums of Kloosterman sums with composite moduli $c$, using Fourier analysis on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}/c\mathbb{Z})$ and an amplification argument with non-abelian characters. For sums…

Bag and Shparlinski \cite{BaSh} considered bilinear sums of terms of the form $e_p(axy^s)$, where $p$ is a prime, $a$ is an integer coprime to $p$, $s$ is an integer, $x$ runs over a subset of $\mathbb{F}_p^{\ast}$ and $y$ runs over an…

We present several congruences modulo a power of prime $p$ concerning sums of the following type $\sum_{k=1}^{p-1}{m^k\over k^r}{2k\choose k}^{-1}$ which reveal some interesting connections with the analogous infinite series.

We study the sum of additively twisted Fourier coefficients of a symmetric-square lift of a Maass form invariant under the full modular group. Our bounds are uniform in terms of the spectral parameter of the Maass form, as well as in terms…

The Fourier coefficient of a second order Eisenstein series is described as a shifted convolution sum. This description is used to obtain the spectral decomposition of and estimates for the shifted convolution sum.

We count the number of critical points of a modular form with real Fourier coefficients in a $\gamma$-translate of the standard fundamental domain $\mathcal{F}$ (with $\gamma\in \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$). Whereas by the valence formula…

Sturm obtained the bounds for the number of the first Fourier coefficients of elliptic modular form $f$ to determine vanishing of $f$ modulo a prime $p$. In this paper, we study analogues of Sturm's bound for Siegel modular forms of genus…

For each prime $\ell$, let $|\cdot|_\ell$ be an extension to $\bar \Q$ of the usual $\ell$-adic absolute value on $\Q$. Suppose $g(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty c(n)q^n \in M_{k+\half}(N)$ is an eigenform whose Fourier coefficients are algebraic…
