We study the representation theory of a certain finite group for which Kloosterman sums appear as character values. This leads us to consider a concrete family of commuting hermitian matrices which have Kloosterman sums as eigenvalues.…

The series of some new estimates for the sums of the type \[ S_{q}(x;f)\,=\,\mathop{{\sum}'}\limits_{n\leqslant x}f(n)e_{q}(an^{*}+bn) \] is obtained. Here $q$ is a sufficiently large integer, $\sqrt{q}(\log{q})\!\ll\!x\leqslant q$, $a,b$…

We prove upper bounds for sums of Kloosterman sums against general arithmetic weight functions. In particular, we obtain power cancellation in sums of Kloosterman sums over arithmetic progressions, which is of square-root strength in any…

We prove a non-trivial bound for $\operatorname{Sp}(2n)$ Kloosterman sums of moduli not equal to a prime multiple of the identity. These sums are attached to Siegel modular forms on the group $\operatorname{Sp}(2n)$ and appear in the…

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.…

In the paper, we establish a new estimate for Kloosterman sum over primes with respect to an arbitrary modulus $q$. This estimate together with some recent results of the second author are applied to the problem of solvability of the…

We give new bounds for $\sum_{{a, m ,n}}\alpha_{m}\beta_n\nu_a {\textrm e}\left(\frac{a\overline m}{n}\right)$ where $\alpha_{m}$, $\beta_n$ and $\nu_a$ are arbitrary coefficients, improving upon a result of Duke, Friedlander and Iwaniec…

Sums of Kloosterman sums have deep connections with the theory of modular forms, and their estimation has many important consequences. Kuznetsov used his famous trace formula and got a power-saving estimate with respect to $x$ with implied…

We prove non-trivial bounds for general bilinear forms in hyper-Kloosterman sums when the sizes of both variables may be below the P\'olya-Vinogradov range. We then derive applications to the second moment of holomorphic cusp forms twisted…

We give generating functions for Gauss sums for finite general linear and unitary groups. For the general linear case only our method of proof is new, but we deduce a bound on Kloosterman sums which is sometimes sharper than Deligne's bound…

The main objective of this article is to study the exponential sums associated to Fourier coefficients of modular forms supported at numbers having a fixed set of prime factors. This is achieved by establishing an improvement on…

We prove that the Kloosterman sum $S(1,1;c)$ can change sign infinitely often as $c$ runs over squarefree moduli with at most 10 prime factors, which improves the previous results of E. Fouvry and Ph. Michel, J. Sivak-Fischler and K.…

We give results characterising ternary Kloosterman sums modulo 9 and 27. This leads to a complete characterisation of values that ternary Kloosterman sums assume modulo 18 and 54. The proofs uses Stickelberger's theorem, the Gross-Koblitz…

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…

We bound Kloosterman-like sums of the shape \[ \sum_{n=1}^N \exp(2\pi i (x \lfloor f(n)\rfloor+ y \lfloor f(n)\rfloor^{-1})/p), \] with integers parts of a real-valued, twice-differentiable function $f$ is satisfying a certain limit…

We prove that the Kloosterman sum $\text{Kl}(1,q)$ changes sign infinitely many times, as $q\rightarrow +\infty$ with at most six prime factors. As a consequence, our result improved the best known result of Xi(IMRN, 2022). The novelty of…

We bound double sums of Kloosterman sums over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_{q}$, with one or both parameters ranging over an affine space over its prime subfield ${\mathbb F}_p \subseteq {\mathbb F}_{q} $. These are finite fields analogues…

We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime $p$ with sparse polynomials $a_0x^{n_0} + \cdots + a_{\nu}x^{n_\nu}$. The bounds depend on various greatest common divisors of exponents $n_0, \ldots, n_\nu$ and their differences. In…

Inspired by the work of Bourgain and Garaev (2013), we provide new bounds for certain weighted bilinear Kloosterman sums in polynomial rings over a finite field. As an application, we build upon and extend some results of Sawin and…

We obtain new results on additive properties of the set $$ I^{-1}= \{x^{-1}: \quad x\in I\} $$ where $I$ is an arbitrary interval in the field of residue classes modulo a large prime $p$. We combine our results with multilinear exponential…
