We augment the method of Wooley (2015) by some new ideas and in a series of results, improve his metric bounds on the Weyl sums and the discrepancy of fractional parts of real polynomials with partially prescribed coefficients. We also…

Let $g$ be a fixed Hecke cusp form for $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ and $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character of conductor $M$. The best known subconvex bound for $L(1/2,g\otimes \chi)$ is of Burgess strength. The bound was proved by a…

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…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime and let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field consisting of $q$ elements. We establish new explicit estimates on Gauss sums of the form $S_n(a) = \sum_{x\in \mathbb{F}_q}\psi_a(x^n)$, where $\psi_a$ is a…

In this paper, we estimate the shifted convolution sum \[\sum_{n\geqslant1}\lambda_1(1,n)\lambda_2(n+h)V\Big(\frac{n}{X}\Big),\] where $V$ is a smooth function with support in $[1,2]$, $1\leqslant|h|\leqslant X$, $\lambda_1(1,n)$ and…

We continue to work on \emph{Beyond Endoscopy} for $\mathsf{GL}_2$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with ramification at $S = \{\infty, q_1, \dots, q_r\}$ (where $2 \in S$), generalizing the final step of Altu\u{g}'s work in the unramified setting. We…

The Kuznetsov and Petersson trace formulae for $GL(2)$ forms may collectively be derived from Poincar\'e series in the space of Maass forms with weight. Having already developed the spherical spectral Kuznetsov formula for $GL(3)$, the goal…

In this article we prove an explicit sub-Weyl bound for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line $s = 1/2 + it$. In particular, we show that $|\zeta(1/2 + it)| \le 66.7\, t^{27/164}$ for $t \ge 3$. Combined, our results…

Let $g$ be a fixed holomorphic cusp form of arbitrary level and nebentypus. Let $\chi$ be a primitive character of prime-power modulus $q = p^{\gamma}$. In this paper, we prove the following hybrid Weyl-type subconvexity bound…

We compute the complete bulk one-loop contribution to the Weyl anomaly of the boundary theory for IIB Supergravity compactified on $ AdS_5\times S^5$. The result, that $\delta {\cal A}=(E+I)/(2\pi^2)$, reproduces the subleading term in the…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic or Maass cusp forms for $ \rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with normalized Fourier coefficients $\lambda_f(n)$ and \bna r_{\ell}(n)=\#\left\{(n_1,\cdots,n_{\ell})\in \mathbb{Z}^2:n_1^2+\cdots+n_{\ell}^2=n\right\}. \ena Let…

We give a new fractal Weyl upper bound for resonances of convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds in terms of the dimension $n$ of the manifold and the dimension $\delta$ of its limit set. More precisely, we show that as $R\to\infty$, the…

We show that a certain two-dimensional family of Weyl sums of length $P$ takes values as large as $P^{3/4 + o(1)}$ on almost all linear slices of the unit torus, contradicting a widely held expectation that Weyl sums should exhibit…

In this note, we provide a Berry--Esseen bounds for rectangles in high-dimensions when the random vectors have non-singular covariance matrices. Under this assumption of non-singularity, we prove an $n^{-1/2}$ scaling for the Berry--Esseen…

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 consider N=4 SU(2)xU(1) gauged supergravity on asymptotically-AdS_5 backgrounds. By a near-boundary analysis we determine the boundary-dominant components of the bulk fields from their partially gauge-fixed field equations. Subdominant…

Let $f$ be a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ holomorphic cusp form or the Eisenstien series $E(z,1/2)$ and $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form with its Langlands parameter $\mu$ in generic position i.e. away from Weyl chamber walls and…

Let $s$ be the sum-of-digits function in base $2$, which returns the number of $\mathtt 1$s in the base-2 expansion of a nonnegative integer. For a nonnegative integer $t$, define the asymptotic density \[ c_t=\lim_{N\rightarrow \infty}…

We prove prime exponential sums have no better than square root cancellation on average on short intervals, in the sense that $$\frac{1}{x} \sum_{-y< n\le x} \left|\sum_{\substack{n< m \le n+y\\ 1\le m \le x}} \Lambda(m) \mathrm{e}(\alpha…

We obtain the exponent of distribution $1/2+1/30$ for the ternary divisor function $d_3$ to square-free and prime power moduli, improving the previous results of Fouvry--Kowalski--Michel, Heath-Brown, and Friedlander--Iwaniec. The key input…
