In this paper, we bound the number of solutions to a general Vinogradov system of equations $x_1^j+\dots+x_s^j=y_1^j+\dots+y_s^j$, $(1\leq j\leq k)$, as well as other related systems, in which the variables are required to satisfy digital…

For sufficiently large integers $K$, $x$, $y$, and $q$ satisfying $K \le y < x$, where $f(u) = \alpha u^n + \alpha_{n-1}u^{n-1} + \ldots + \alpha_1 u$ is a polynomial of degree $n$ with real coefficients, $n$ is a fixed positive integer,…

Cusick's conjecture on the binary sum of digits $s(n)$ of a nonnegative integer $n$ states the following: for all nonnegative integers $t$ we have \[ c_t=\lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}\frac 1N\left\lvert\{n<N:s(n+t)\geq s(n)\}\right\rvert>1/2.…

We examine sets $\mathscr A$ of natural numbers having the property that for some real number $p\in (0,2)$, one has the subconvex bound $$\int_0^1 \Bigl| \sum_{n\in \mathscr A\cap [1,N]}e(n\alpha)\Bigr|^p\, {\rm d}\alpha \ll N^{-1}|\mathscr…

We prove new bounds on bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums, complementing and improving a series of results by \'E. Fouvry, E. Kowalski and Ph. Michel (2014), V. Blomer, \'E. Fouvry, E. Kowalski, Ph. Michel and D. Mili\'cevi\'c (2017), E.…

We develop the theory of Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series for root systems of type C. For an arbitrary root system of rank r and a positive integer n, these are Dirichlet series in r complex variables with analytic continuation and…

Let $q, m\geq 2$ be integers with $(m,q-1)=1$. Denote by $s_q(n)$ the sum of digits of $n$ in the $q$-ary digital expansion. Further let $p(x)\in mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial of degree $h\geq 3$ with $p(\mathbb{N})\subset \mathbb{N}$. We…

In order to give a unified generalization of the BW inequality and the DDVV inequality, Lu and Wenzel proposed three Conjectures 1, 2, 3 and an open Question 1 in 2016. In this paper we discuss further these conjectures and put forward…

Estimates are provided for $s$th moments of cubic smooth Weyl sums, when $4\le s\le 8$, by enhancing the author's iterative method that delivers estimates beyond classical convexity. As a consequence, an improved lower bound is presented…

We combine a classical idea of Postnikov (1956) with the method of Korobov (1974) for estimating double Weyl sums, deriving new bounds on short character sums when the modulus $q$ has a small core $\prod_{p\mid q}p$. Using this estimate, we…

In this paper, we bound the number of solutions to a quadratic Vinogradov system of equations in which the variables are required to satisfy digital restrictions in a given base. Certain sets of permitted digits, namely those giving rise to…

We prove that there exist positive constants $C$ and $c$ such that for any integer $d \ge 2$ the set of ${\mathbf x}\in [0,1)^d$ satisfying $$ cN^{1/2}\le \left|\sum^N_{n=1}\exp\left (2 \pi i \left (x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right)…

We obtain estimates for Vinogradov's integral which for the first time approach those conjectured to be the best possible. Several applications of these new bounds are provided. In particular, the conjectured asymptotic formula in Waring's…

In this paper, we use the Bessel $\delta$-method, along with new variants of the van der Corput method in two dimensions, to prove non-trivial bounds for $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ exponential sums beyond the Weyl barrier. More explicitly, for sums…

The Weyl group of the Cuntz algebra O_n, with n finite, is investigated. This is (isomorphic to) the group of polynomial automorphisms of O_n, namely those induced by unitaries that can be written as finite sums of words in the canonical…

We revisit and generalize inequalities for the summatory function of the sum of digits in a given integer base. We prove that several known results can be deduced from a theorem in a 2023 paper by Mohanty, Greenbury, Sarkany, Narayanan,…

In this paper we prove new $(\ell^p, \ell^q)$ bounds for a discrete fractional integral operator by applying techniques motivated by the circle method of Hardy and Littlewood to the Fourier multiplier of the operator. From a different…

We provide a unified, probabilistic approach using renewal theory to derive some novel limits of sums for the normalized binomial coefficients and for the normalized Eulerian numbers. We also investigate some corresponding results for their…

This paper is concerned with Wilmes' conjecture regarding abelian sandpile models. We introduce the concept of boundary divisors and use this to prove the conjecture for the first Betti number. Further results suggest that this method could…

Recently, Z.-W. Sun introduced two kinds of polynomials related to the Delannoy numbers, and proved some supercongruences on sums involving those polynomials. We deduce new summation formulas for squares of those polynomials and use them to…
