A general method to express in terms of Gauss sums the number of rational points of subschemes of projective schemes over finite fields is applied to the image of the triple embedding $\mathbb{P}^1\hookrightarrow\mathbb{P}^3$. As a…

We establish bounds of triple exponential sums with mixed exponential and linear function. The method we use is by Shparlinski together with a bound of additive energy from Roche-Newton, Rudnev and Shkredov.

Many generating series of combinatorially interesting numbers have the property that the sum of the terms of order $<p$ at some suitable point is congruent to a zero of a zeta-function modulo infinitely many primes $p$. Surprisingly, very…

We study congruences between cuspidal modular forms and Eisenstein series at levels which are square-free integers and for equal even weights. This generalizes our previous results from Naskr\k{e}cki [17] for prime levels and provides…

In 1977 Montgomery and Vaughan gave tight bounds for exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n\leq x}f(n)e(n\alpha)$ where $f$ is a $1$-bounded multiplicative function and $\alpha\in\mathbb R$, close to the conjectured $\ll \frac{x}{\sqrt{q}}+…

We establish new estimates on short character sums for arbitrary composite moduli with small prime factors. Our main result improves on the Graham-Ringrose bound for square free moduli and also on the result due to Gallagher and Iwaniec…

We use Bourgain's recent bound for short exponential sums to prove certain independence results related to the distribution of squarefree numbers in arithmetic progressions.

This work brings techniques from the theory of recurrent integer sequences to the problem of balancedness of symmetric Boolean functions. In particular, the periodicity modulo $p$ ($p$ odd prime) of exponential sums of symmetric Boolean…

We introduce and consider a certain probability question involving elementary number theory and the likelihood that a fixed prime will appear in a certain recursively defined factorization of an integer. We derive several convergent…

In this paper we compute the exact divisibility of exponential sums associated to binomials $F(X)=aX^{d_1} +b X^{d_2}$. In particular, for the case where $\max\{d_1,d_2\}\leq\sqrt{p-1}$, the exact divisibility is computed. As a byproduct of…

We obtain new results on additive properties of the set $$ I^{-1}= \{x^{-1}: \quad x\in I\} $$ where $I$ is an arbitrary interval in the field of residue classes modulo a large prime $p$. We combine our results with multilinear exponential…

An integral representation for form-factors of exponential fields in the sine-Gordon model is proposed.

We prove a probabilistic Fourier extension theorem that says Fourier extension holds when averaged over certain smooth Alpert multipliers. The proofs use smooth Alpert wavelets with the classical techniques of stationary phase and…

In this paper we study the exponential uniform strong summability of two-dimensional Vilenkin-Fourier series. In particular, it is proved that the two-dimensional Vilenkin-Fourier series of the continuous function $f$ is uniformly strong…

J.P. Serre showed that for any integer $m,~a(n)\equiv 0 \pmod m$ for almost all $n,$ where $a(n)$ is the $n^{\text{th}}$ Fourier coefficient of any modular form with rational coefficients. In this article, we consider a certain class of…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a holonomic algebraic $\mathcal{D}$-module on the affine line. Its exponential factors are Puiseux germs describing the growth of holomorphic solutions to $\mathcal{M}$ at irregular points. The stationary phase formula…
