We construct new examples of non-nil algebras with any number of generators, which are direct sums of two locally nilpotent subalgebras. As all previously known examples, our examples are contracted semigroup algebras and the underlying…

We give a new bound on colinear triples in subgroups of prime finite fields and use it to give some new bounds on exponential sums with trinomials.

We construct extended Weil representations of unitary groups over finite fields geometrically, and show that they are Shintani lifts for Weil representations.

For an additive polynomial and a positive integer, we define an irreducible smooth representation of a Weil group of a non-archimedean local field. We study several invariants of this representation. We deduce a necessary and sufficient…

We obtain a nontrivial bound for cancellations between the Kloosterman sums modulo a large prime power with a prime argument running over very short interval, which in turn is based on a new estimate on bilinear sums of Kloosterman sums.…

Let $L$ be an even lattice of odd rank with discriminant group $L'/L$, and let $\alpha,\beta \in L'/L$. We prove the Weil bound for the Kloosterman sums $S_{\alpha,\beta}(m,n,c)$ of half-integral weight for the Weil Representation attached…

In this work we establish a Burgess bound for short multiplicative character sums in arbitrary dimensions, in which the character is evaluated at a homogeneous form that belongs to a very general class of "admissible" forms. This…

We establish Burgess-type bounds for short multiplicative character sums over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ under a purely volumetric condition. We show that for a box $B \subset \mathbb{F}_{p^n}$, nontrivial cancellation occurs whenever…

In this paper we propose a conjecture concerning partial sums of an arbitrary finite subset of an abelian group, that naturally arises investigating simple Heffter systems. Then, we show its connection with related open problems and we…

Combinatorial aspects of R-subgroups of finite dimensional Beidleman near-vector spaces over nearfields are studied. A characterization of R-subgroups is used to obtain the smallest possible size of a generating set of a subgroup, which is…

Linear codes with few weights have applications in secret sharing, authentication codes, association schemes and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, several classes of $t$-weight linear codes over ${\mathbb F}_{q}$ are presented with…

We obtain a new bound for incomplete Gauss sums modulo primes. Our argument falls under the framework of Vinogradov's method which we use to reduce the problem under consideration to bounding the number of solutions to two distinct systems…

It is known that characters of irreducible representations of finite Lie algebras can be obtained using theWeyl character formula including Weyl group summations which make actual calculations almost impossible except for a few Lie algebras…

Let $V$ be a Weyl module either for a reductive algebraic group $G$ or for the corresponding quantum group $U_q$. If $G$ is defined over a field of positive characteristic $p$, respectively if $q$ is a primitive $l$'th root of unity (in an…

We study irreducible restrictions from modules over alternating groups to subgroups. We get reduction results which substantially restrict the classes of subgroups and modules for which this is possible. This is known when the…

In this paper we improve our previous results on classification of groups of points on abelian varieties over finite fields. The classification is given in terms of the Weil polynomial of abelian varieties in a given $k$-isogeny class.

We establish a normal approximation for the limiting distribution of partial sums of random Rademacher multiplicative functions over function fields, provided the number of irreducible factors of the polynomials is small enough. This…

We present methods and explicit formulas for describing simple weight modules over twisted generalized Weyl algebras. When a certain commutative subalgebra is finitely generated over an algebraically closed field we obtain a classification…

We give a new interpretation for the super loop space that has been used to formulate supersymmetry. The fermionic coordinates in the super loop space are identified as the odd generators of the Weil algebra. Their bosonic superpartners are…

We obtain a new bound on Weyl sums with degree $k\ge 2$ polynomials of the form $(\tau x+c) \omega(n)+xn$, $n=1, 2, \ldots$, with fixed $\omega(T) \in \mathbb{Z}[T]$ and $\tau \in \mathbb{R}$, which holds for almost all $c\in [0,1)$ and all…
