We establish upper and lower universal bounds for potentials of weighted designs on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ that depend only on quadrature nodes and weights derived from the design structure. Our bounds hold for a large class of…

We present a new proof of Corvaja and Zannier's \cite{C-Z} the upper bound of the number of solutions $(x,y)$ of the algebraic equation $P(x,y)=0$ over a field $\mathbb{F}_p$ ($p$ is a prime), in the case, where $x\in g_1G$, $y\in g_2G$,…

The purpose of this article is to further explore how the structure of the affine group can be used to deduce new incidence theorems, and to explore sum-product type applications of these incidence bounds, building on the recent work of…

We investigate border ranks of twisted powers of polynomials and smoothability of symmetric powers of algebras. We prove that the latter are smoothable. For the former, we obtain upper bounds for the border rank in general and prove that…

We bound the location of roots of polynomials that have nonnegative coefficients with respect to a fixed but arbitrary basis of the vector space of polynomials of degree at most $d$. For this, we interpret the basis polynomials as vector…

Let $p$ be a prime. We prove that if a modular unit has a $p^{th}$ root that is again a modular unit then the level of that root is at most $p$ times the level of the original unit.

We obtain new bounds of multivariate exponential sums with monomials, when the variables run over rather short intervals. Furthermore, we use the same method to derive estimates on similar sums with multiplicative characters to which…

The aim of this note is two-fold. In the first part of the paper we are going to investigate an inverse problem related to additive energy. In the second, we investigate how dense a subset of a finite structure can be for a given additive…

We prove character sum estimates for additive Bohr subsets modulo a prime. These estimates are analogous to classical character sum bounds of Polya-Vinogradov and Burgess. These estimates are applied to obtain results on recurrence mod $p$…

We continue our recent work on averages for ternary additive problems with powers of prime numbers.

Given a subset of real numbers $A$ with small product $AA$ we obtain a new upper bound for the additive energy of $A$. The proof uses a natural observation that level sets of convolutions of the characteristic function of $A$ have small…

The problem of computing modulo prime-power sums is investigated in distributed source coding as well as computation over Multiple-Access Channel (MAC). We build upon group codes and present a new class of codes called Quasi Group Codes…

For renormalizable models a method is presented to unambiguously compute the energy that is carried by localized field configurations (solitons). A variational approach for the total energy is utilized to search for soliton configurations.…

We develop an approach to finding upper bounds for the number of arithmetic operations necessary for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups. The approach takes advantage of the intrinsic orbital structure of…

This is a review of several results related to distribution of powers and combination of powers modulo 1. We include a proof that given a sequence of real numbers $\theta_n$, it is possible to get an $\alpha$ (given $\lambda \ne 0$), or a…

This article starts a computational study of congruences of modular forms and modular Galois representations modulo prime powers. Algorithms are described that compute the maximum integer modulo which two monic coprime integral polynomials…

Combining Freiman's theorem with Balog-Szemeredi-Gowers theorem one can show that if an additive set has large additive energy, then a large piece of the set is contained in a generalized arithmetic progression of small rank and size. In…

We give a lower bound for the number of ordinary lines spanned by a modular hyperbola when the modulus is a prime power. We also give a partial answer to a question of Shparlinski.

We introduce the notion of additive units and roots of a unit in a spatial product system. The set of all roots of any unit forms a Hilbert space and its dimension is the same as the index of the product system. We show that a unit and all…

We obtain upper bounds on the number of finite sets $\mathcal S$ of primes below a given bound for which various $2$ variable $\mathcal S$-unit equations have a solution.
