We obtain explicit estimates for the mixed character sum $S= S(\chi,g,f,p^m) = \sum_{x=1}^{p^m} \chi (g(x)) e_{p^m}(f(x))$, where $p^m$ is a prime power, $\chi$ is a multiplicative character mod $p^m$ and $f,g$ are rational functions over…

We investigate one-dimensional families of diagonal forms, considering the evolution of the asymptotic formula and error term. We then discuss properties of the average asymptotic formula obtained. The subsequent second moment analysis…

We present some results on character degree sums in connection with certain characteristics of finite groups such as p-solvability, solvability, supersolvability, and nilpotency. Some of them strengthen known results in the literature.

Following the work of Hildebrand we improve the Po'lya- Vinogradov inequality in a specific range, we also give a general result that shows its dependency on Burgess bound and at last we improve the range of validity for a special case of…

We prove a stratification result for certain families of $n$-dimensional (complete algebraic) multiplicative character sums. The character sums we consider are sums of products of $r$ multiplicative characters evaluated at rational…

The polynomials of degree $\frac{p-1}{2}$ of range sum $p$ was determined in {\tt arXiv:2311.06136 [math.NT]} for large enough primes. We extend this result by reducing the lower bound for the primes to $23$ by introducing a new and…

We establish a new bound for short character sums in finite fields, particularly over two-dimensional grids in $\mathbb{F}_{p^3}$ and higher-dimensional lattices in $\mathbb{F}_{p^d}$, extending an earlier work of Mei-Chu Chang on Burgess…

We are interested in determining the bound of the average of the degrees of the irreducible characters whose degrees are not divisible by some prime $p$ that guarantees a finite group $G$ of odd order is $p$-nilpotent. We find a bound that…

Given a large set $U$ where each item $a\in U$ has weight $w(a)$, we want to estimate the total weight $W=\sum_{a\in U} w(a)$ to within factor of $1\pm\varepsilon$ with some constant probability $>1/2$. Since $n=|U|$ is large, we want to do…

Let $p$ be a prime. For $p=2$, the fields of values of the complex irreducible characters of finite groups whose degrees are not divisible by $p$ have been classified; for odd primes $p$, a conjectural classification has been proposed. In…

Recent work by M. Afifurrahman established the first asymptotic estimates with error terms for the number of $2\times 2$ matrices with fixed non-zero determinant $n\in\mathbb{N}$, and with coefficients bounded in absolute value by $X$. In…

In this paper we shed more light on determinants of interval matrices. Computing the exact bounds on a determinant of an interval matrix is an NP-hard problem. Therefore, attention is first paid to approximations. NP-hardness of both…

In this paper, we will show that the $p$-adic valuation (where $p$ is a given prime number) of some type of rational numbers is unusually large. This generalizes the very recent results by the author and by A. Dubickas, which are both…

In this article, we study extreme values of quadratic character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n \le N}f(n)\chi_d(n)$. For a positive number $N$ within a suitable range, we employ the resonance method to establish a…

This paper deals with the dimension reduction for high-dimensional time series based on common factors. In particular we allow the dimension of time series $p$ to be as large as, or even larger than, the sample size $n$. The estimation for…

A character of a finite group having degree $n$ takes values which may be expressed as sums of $n$ or fewer roots of unity. In this note, we prove a result which describes the irreducible constituents of generalized characters on abelian…

One of the main features of eigenvalue matrix models is that the averages of characters are again characters, what can be considered as a far-going generalization of the Fourier transform property of Gaussian exponential. This is true for…
