This work builds on earlier results. We define universal elliptic Gau{\ss} sums for Atkin primes in Schoof's algorithm for counting points on elliptic curves. Subsequently, we show these quantities admit an efficiently computable…

We show that for any mod $p^m$ characters, $\chi_1, \dots, \chi_k,$ the Jacobi sum, $$ \sum_{x_1=1}^{p^m}\dots \sum_{\substack{x_k=1\\x_1+\dots+x_k=B}}^{p^m}\chi_1(x_1)\dots \chi_k(x_k), $$ has a simple evaluation when $m$ is sufficiently…

Let $A$ be a finite nonempty set of integers. An asymptotic estimate of several dilates sum size was obtained by Bukh. The unique known exact bound concerns the sum $|A+k\cdot A|,$ where $k$ is a prime and $|A|$ is large. In its full…

The Gauss Circle Problem concerns finding asymptotics for the number of lattice point lying inside a circle in terms of the radius of the circle. The heuristic that the number of points is very nearly the area of the circle is surprisingly…

We obtain the exact value of the Hausdorff dimension of the set of coefficients of Gauss sums which for a given $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$ achieve the order at least $N^{\alpha}$ for infinitely many sum lengths $N$. For Weyl sums with polynomials…

A sum of open sets is a map taking two bounded open sets $A,B$ and producing a new open set $A \oplus B$. We prove that, up to sets of measure zero, there is only one such sum satisfying a natural list of axioms. It is the scaling limit of…

Let $X_{1,n}\le\cdots\le X_{n,n}$ be the order statistics of $n$ independent random variables with a common distribution function $F$ having right heavy tail with tail index $\gamma$. Given known constants $d_{i,n}$, $1\le i\le n$, consider…

We present several sequences of Euler sums involving odd harmonic numbers. The calculational technique is based on proper two-valued integer functions, which allow to compute these sequences explicitly in terms of zeta values only.

For an additive group $\Gamma$ the sequence $S = (g_1, \ldots, g_t)$ of elements of $\Gamma$ is a zero-sum sequence if $g_1 + \cdots + g_t = 0_\Gamma$. The cross number of $S$ is defined to be the sum $\sum_{i=1}^k 1/|g_i|$, where $|g_i|$…

In this paper, we study the Hasse norm principle for some non-Galois extensions of number fields. Our main theorem is that for any square-free composite number $d$ which is divisible by at least one of $3$, $55$, $91$ or $95$, there exists…

In this paper we study the sum of powers in the Gaussian integers $\mathbf{G}_k(n):=\sum_{a,b \in [1,n]} (a+b i)^k$. We give an explicit formula for $\mathbf{G}_k(n) \pmod n $ in terms of the prime numbers $p \equiv 3 \pmod 4$ with $p \mid…

We provide explicit formulas for quadratic Gauss sums over $\mathbb{Z}^n/c\mathbb{Z}^n$, which generalize some of the existing formulas, e.g., Skoruppa and Zagier's (for $n=2$), and Iwaniec and Kowalski's (for arbitrary $n$). We then give…

A system of differential equations of the Okubo normal form containing accessory parameters is considered. A condition for determining special values of the accessory parameters is given. It is shown that the special values give the…

We classify all totally real number fields of degree at most 5 that admit a universal quadratic form with rational integer coefficients; in fact, there are none over the previously unsolved cases of quartic and quintic fields. This fully…

Selberg sums are the analogues over finite fields of certain integrals studied by Selberg in in 1940s. The original versions of these sums were introduced by R.J.Evans in 1981 and, following an elegant idea of G.W.Anderson in 1991 they were…

We develop novel techniques which allow us to prove a diverse range of results relating to subset sums and complete sequences of positive integers, including solutions to several longstanding open problems. These include: solutions to the…

By applying interpretable machine learning methods such as decision trees, we study how simple models can classify the Galois groups of Galois extensions over $\mathbb{Q}$ of degrees 4, 6, 8, 9, and 10, using Dedekind zeta coefficients. Our…

We derive explicit expressions for the sum rules of the eigenvalues of inhomogeneous strings with arbitrary density and with different boundary conditions. We show that the sum rule of order $N$ may be obtained in terms of a diagrammatic…

In this paper, we asymptotically enumerate graphs with a given degree sequence d=(d_1,...,d_n) satisfying restrictions designed to permit heavy-tailed sequences in the sparse case (i.e. where the average degree is rather small). Our general…

We extend the computations in [AGM1, AGM2, AGM3] to find the cohomology in degree five of a congruence subgroup Gamma of SL(4,Z) with coefficients in a field K, twisted by a nebentype character eta, along with the action of the Hecke…
