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 consider the distribution of the polygonal paths joining partial sums of classical Kloosterman sums, as their parameter varies modulo a prime tending to infinity. Using independence of Kloosterman sheaves, we prove convergence in the…
A formula of Kuznetsov allows one to interpret a smooth sum of Kloosterman sums as a sum over the spectrum of $GL(2)$ automorphic forms. In this paper, we construct a similar formula for the first hyper-Kloosterman sums using $GL(3)$…
We study Kloosterman sums in a generalized ring-theoretic context, that of finite commutative Frobenius rings. We prove a number of identities for twisted Kloosterman sums, loosely clustered around moment computations.
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 obtain new bounds on some trilinear and quadrilinear character sums, which are non-trivial starting from very short ranges of the variables. An application to an apparently new problem on oscillations of characters on differences between…
We develop Kummer theory for algebraic function fields in finitely many transcendental variables. We consider any finitely generated Kummer extension (possibly, over a cyclotomic extension) of an algebraic function field, and describe the…
Grothendieck's inequalities for operators and bilinear forms imply some factorization results for complex m x n matrices. Based on the theory of operator spaces and completely bounded mappings we present norm optimal versions of these…
The main purpose of this Note is to provide a non-trivial bound on certain Kloosterman sums as considered in the recent paper of E. Fouvry [F], leading to a small improvement of his result on the Pell equation.
A Kloosterman refinement for function fields $K=\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ is developed and used to establish the quantitative arithmetic of the set of rational points on a smooth complete intersection of two quadrics $X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n-1}_{K}$…
In this paper, we improve on Fouvry and Radziwi{\l}{\l}'s results on unbalanced convolutions. In particular, we find that if $(\alpha_m)$ and $(\beta_n)$ are sequences supported on $m\sim M$ and $n\sim M$ where $\beta$ is equidistributed…
In the previous paper [Sun23], the author proved a uniform bound for sums of half-integral weight Kloosterman sums. This bound was applied to prove an exact formula for partitions of rank modulo 3. That uniform estimate provides a more…
In this note, we give explicit expressions of Gauss sums for general (resp. special) linear groups over finite fields, which involves Gauss sums (resp. Kloosterman sums). The key ingredient is averaging such sums over Borel subgroups. As…
Kloosterman sums play a special role in analytic number theory, for expressing the integer Fourier coefficients of modular forms as an infinite sum of Bessel functions, also known as Rademacher formula. The generalization to vector-valued…
In this article we study the fields generated by the Fourier coefficients of modular forms at arbitrary cusps. We prove that these fields are contained in certain cyclotomic extensions of the field generated by the Fourier coefficients at…
Let $\mathcal{K}(a)$ denote the Kloosterman sum on the finite field of order $2^n$. We give a simple characterization of $\mathcal{K}(a)$ modulo 16, in terms of the trace of $a$ and one other function. We also give a characterization of…
Let $q$ be a power of a prime and let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field consisting of $q$ elements. We establish new explicit estimates on Gauss sums of the form $S_n(a) = \sum_{x\in \mathbb{F}_q}\psi_a(x^n)$, where $\psi_a$ is a…
In a recent work by Charpin, Helleseth, and Zinoviev Kloosterman sums $K(a)$ over a finite field $\F_{2^m}$ were evaluated modulo 24 in the case $m$ odd, and the number of those $a$ giving the same value for $K(a)$ modulo 24 was given. In…
In this paper, we construct two binary linear codes associated with multi-dimensional and $m -$multiple power Kloosterman sums (for any fixed $m$) over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. Here $q$ is a power of two. The former codes are dual…
This paper establishes power-saving bounds for Kloosterman sums associated with the long Weyl element for GL(n), as well as for another type of Weyl element of order 2. These bounds are obtained by establishing an explicit representation as…
