We obtain a nontrivial bound on the number of solutions to the equation $A^{x_1} + A^{x_2} = A^{x_3} + A^{x_4}$, $1 \le x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4 \le \tau$, with a fixed $n\times n$ matrix $A$ over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$ of $q$ elements of…
We obtain a new bound of certain double multiplicative character sums. We use this bound together with some other previously obtained results to obtain new algorithms for finding roots of polynomials modulo a prime $p$.
We propose a new method to obtain approximate solutions for the Schr\"{o}dinger equation with an arbitrary potential that possesses bound states. This method, relying on the auxiliary field technique, allows in many cases to find analytical…
Best possible bounds are obtained for the concentration function of an additive arithmetic function on sequences of shifted primes.
We obtain new bounds on short Weil sums over small multiplicative subgroups of prime finite fields which remain nontrivial in the range the classical Weil bound is already trivial. The method we use is a blend of techniques coming from…
In this note we prove a new estimate on so-called GCD sums (also called G\'{a}l sums), which, for certain coefficients, improves significantly over the general bound due to de la Bret\`{e}che and Tenenbaum. We use our estimate to prove new…
We extend some methods of bounding exponential sums of the type $\displaystyle\sum_{n\le N}e^{2\pi iag^n/p}$ to deal with the case when $g$ is not necessarily a primitive root. We also show some recent results of Shkredov concerning…
We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…
Given a monic polynomial $f(X)\in \mathbb{Z}_m[X]$ over a residue ring $\mathbb{Z}_m$ modulo an integer $m\ge 2$ and a discrete interval $\mathcal{I} = \{1, \ldots, H\}$ of $H \le m$ consecutive integers, considered as elements of…
We prove new quantitative bounds on the additive structure of sets obeying an $L^3$ 'control' assumption, which arises naturally in several questions within additive combinatorics. This has a number of applications - in particular we…
First, a new proof of Berman and Charpin's characterization of the Reed-Muller codes over the binary field or over an arbitrary prime field is presented. These codes are considered as the powers of the radical of a modular algebra.…
In our previous paper [GSV2020], we proved that the complementary components of a ring domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with large enough modulus may be separated by an annular ring domain and applied this result to boundary correspondence problems…
We derive a new bound for some bilinear sums over points of an elliptic curve over a finite field. We use this bound to improve a series of previous results on various exponential sums and some arithmetic problems involving points on…
We first study subextensions of m-subharmonic functions in weighted energy classes with given boundary values. The results are used to approximate an m-subharmonic function in weighted energy classes with given boundary values by an…
We treat the problem of completing the moduli space for roots of line bundles on curves. Special attention is devoted to higher spin curves within the universal Picard scheme. Two new different constructions, both using line bundles on…
The problem of extrapolating the series in powers of small variables to the region of large variables is addressed. Such a problem is typical of quantum theory and statistical physics. A method of extrapolation is developed based on…
In this paper we obtain further improvement of index bounds for character sums of polynomials over finite fields. We present some examples, which show that our new bound is an improved bound compared to both the Weil bound and the index…
Recently, the properties of a binomial sum related to the multi-link inverted pendulum enumeration problem have been studied. In this note, we establish bounds for this binomial sum.
We use bounds of mixed character sum to study the distribution of solutions to certain polynomial systems of congruences modulo a prime $p$. In particular, we obtain nontrivial results about the number of solution in boxes with the side…
We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime $p$ with binomials $ax^k + bx^n$. In particular, for $k=1$, we improve the bound of Karatsuba (1967) from $O(n^{1/4} p^{3/4})$ to $O\left(p^{3/4} + n^{1/3}p^{2/3}\right)$ for any $n$,…
