Answering a question of J. Rosenberg, we construct the first examples of infinite characters on $GL_n(\mathbf{K})$ for a global field $\mathbf{K}$ and $n\geq 2.$ The case $n=2$ is deduced from the following more general result. Let $G$ a…
Let $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ be finite subsets of an additive abelian group $G$ with $|A_1|=\cdots=|A_n|\ge2$. Concerning the two new kinds of restricted sumsets $$L(A_1,\ldots,A_n)=\{a_1+\cdots+a_n:\ a_1\in A_1,\ldots,a_n\in A_n,\ \text{and}\…
In this paper we look for solutions of a semilinear Maxwell type equation, in even dimension, greater than four. These solutions are critical points of a functional which is strongly degenerate because of the presence of the exterior…
We show that for any set A in a finite Abelian group G that has at least c |A|^3 solutions to a_1 + a_2 = a_3 + a_4, where a_i belong A there exist sets A' in A and L in G, |L| \ll c^{-1} log |A| such that A' is contained in Span of L and…

In the paper we obtain some new upper bounds for exponential sums over multiplicative subgroups G of F^*_p having sizes in the range [p^{c_1}, p^{c_2}], where c_1,c_2 are some absolute constants close to 1/2. As an application we prove that…

We consider the recursive equation ``x(n+1)=A(n)x(n)'' where x(n+1) and x(n) are column vectors of size k and where A(n) is an irreducible random matrix of size k x k. The matrix-vector multiplication in the (max,+) algebra is defined by…

For integer $q$, let $\chi$ be a primitive multiplicative character$\pmod q.$ For integer $a$ coprime to $q$, we obtain a new bound for the sums $$\sum_{n\le N}\Lambda(n)\chi(n+a),$$ where $\Lambda(n)$ is the von Mangoldt function. This…
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…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^t$ elements. In this paper, we study the number of solutions of equations of the form $a_1 x_1^{d_1}+\dots+a_s x_s^{d_s}=b$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. A classic well-konwn result from Weil yields a…
We investigate a variation of Nicomachus's identity in which one term in the cubic sum is replaced by a different cube. Specifically, we study the Diophantine identity \[ \sum_{j=1}^{n} j^3 + x^3 - k^3 = \left( \sum_{j=1}^{n} j + x - k…

We study small non-trivial solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q}$, with $q$ being an odd natural number, in an average sense. This extends previous work of the authors in which…
We obtain, using exponential quadratic sums, explicit expressions for the number of double persymmetric matrices with entries in F_2 of given rank. (A matix [a(i,j)) is persymmetric if a(i,j) = a(r,s) for i+j = r+s)
We consider a new class of non-Hermitian random matrices, namely the ones which have the form of sums of freely independent terms involving unitary matrices. To deal with them, we exploit the recently developed quaternion technique. After…
