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 paper, we study the $L^p$ maximal estimates for the Weyl sums $\sum_{n=1}^{N}e^{2\pi i(nx + n^{k}t)}$ with higher-order $k\ge3$ on $\mathbb{T}$, and obtain the positive and negative results. Especially for the case $k=3$, our result…
We obtain new estimates on the maximal operator applied to the Weyl sums. We also consider the quadratic case (that is, Gauss sums) in more details. In wide ranges of parameters our estimates are optimal and match lower bounds. Our approach…
We study an apparently new question about the behaviour of Weyl sums on a subset $\mathcal{X}\subseteq [0,1)^d$ with a natural measure $\mu$ on $\mathcal{X}$. For certain measure spaces $(\mathcal{X}, \mu)$ we obtain non-trivial bounds for…
We obtain new estimates - both upper and lower bounds - on the mean values of the Weyl sums over a small box inside of the unit torus. In particular, we refine recent conjectures of C. Demeter and B. Langowski (2022), and improve some of…
Let $S(x,t)$ denote the Weyl sum with associated polynomial $xn + tn^2$. Suppose that $|S(x,t)|$ attains its maximum for given $x$ at $t = t(x)$. We give upper and lower bounds of the same order of magnitude for the $L^p$ norm of…
We show that $$\bigg\|\sup_{0 < t < 1} \big|\sum_{n=1}^{N} e^{2\pi i (n(\cdot) + n^2 t)}\big| \bigg\|_{L^{4}([0,1])} \leq C_{\epsilon} N^{3/4 + \epsilon}$$ and discuss some applications to the theory of large values of Weyl sums. This…
The authors have recently obtained a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension of the sets of vectors $(x_1, \ldots, x_d)\in [0,1)^d$ with large Weyl sums, namely of vectors for which $$ \left| \sum_{n=1}^{N}\exp(2\pi i (x_1 n+\ldots +x_d…
We augment the method of Wooley (2015) by some new ideas and in a series of results, improve his metric bounds on the Weyl sums and the discrepancy of fractional parts of real polynomials with partially prescribed coefficients. We also…
We obtain the exact value of the Hausdorff dimension of the set of coefficients of Gauss sums which for a given $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$ achieve the order at least $N^{\alpha}$ for infinitely many sum lengths $N$. For Weyl sums with polynomials…
We present estimates for smooth Weyl sums of use on sets of major arcs in applications of the Hardy-Littlewood method. In particular, we derive mean value estimates on major arcs for smooth Weyl sums of degree $k$ delivering essentially…
A special case of the Menshov--Rademacher theorem implies for almost all polynomials $x_1Z+\ldots +x_d Z^{d} \in {\mathbb R}[Z]$ of degree $d$ for the Weyl sums satisfy the upper bound $$ \left| \sum_{n=1}^{N}\exp\left(2\pi i \left(x_1…
We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set $\mathbf{x}\in [0,1)^d$, such that $$ \left|\sum_{n=1}^N \exp\left(2 \pi i\left(x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right) \right|\ge c N^{1/2} $$ holds for infinitely many natural numbers $N$, is at…
A new range of uniform $L^p$ resolvent estimates is obtained in the setting of the flat torus, improving previous results of Bourgain, Shao, Sogge and Yao. The arguments rely on the $\ell^2$-decoupling theorem and multidimensional Weyl sum…
We obtain sharp estimates for multidimensional generalisations of Vinogradov's mean value theorem for arbitrary translation-dilation invariant systems, achieving constraints on the number of variables approaching those conjectured to be the…
We establish an essentially optimal estimate for the ninth moment of the exponential sum having argument $\alpha x^3+\beta x$. The first substantial advance in this topic for over 60 years, this leads to improvements in Heath-Brown's…
We use decoupling theory to prove a sharp (up to $N^\epsilon$ losses) estimate for Vinogradov's mean value theorem in two dimensions
We obtain finite field analogues of a series of recent results on various mean value theorems for Weyl sums. Instead of the Vinogradov Mean Value Theorem, our results rest on the classical argument of Mordell, combined with several other…
We establish new quantitative estimates for general systems of functions with wavelet-type dyadic structure. These estimates are applied to obtain the optimal growth of various types of Weyl multipliers for certain wavelet-type systems.…
We estimate Weyl sums over the integers with sum of binary digits either fixed or restricted by some congruence condition. In our proofs we use ideas that go back to a paper by Banks, Conflitti and the first author (2002). Moreover, we…
