In a work of Heath-Brown, it is proved that in the Pilz divisor problem, the normalized error term $\Delta_3(x)$ has a distribution function. In this paper, we prove an analogue of this result in the setting of GL(3). For a given self-dual…

We prove new large sieve inequalities for the Fourier coefficients $\rho_{j\mathfrak{a}}(n)$ of exceptional Maass forms of a given level, weighted by sequences $(a_n)$ with sparse Fourier transforms - including two key types of sequences…

We refine known dimension formulas for spaces of cusp forms of squarefree level, determining the dimension of subspaces generated by newforms both with prescribed global root numbers and with prescribed local signs of Atkin-Lehner…

We establish improved bounds for bilinear forms with Kloosterman fractions of the form ${\sum\sum}_{m,n} \alpha_m \beta_n e(a\overline{m}/(bn))$ with $M<m\le 2M$, $N < n \le 2N$ and $(m,n)=1$. Our approach works directly with arbitrary…

The method of proof of Balog and Ruzsa and the large sieve of Linnik are used to investigate the behaviour of the $L^{1}$ norm of a wide class of exponential sums over the square-free integers and the primes. Further, a new proof of the…

We introduce a smooth variance sum associated to a pair of positive definite symmetric integral matrices $A_{m\times m}$ and $B_{n\times n}$, where $m\geq n$. By using the oscillator representation, we give a formula for this variance sum…

There are various reasons why a naive analog of the Maeda conjecture has to fail for Drinfeld cusp forms. Focussing on double cusp forms and using the link found by Teitelbaum between Drinfeld cusp forms and certain harmonic cochains, we…

We use the Burgess bound and Selberg sieve to obtain an upper bound on the second moment of sums over an interval $[u+1,u+h]$ of Legendre symbols modulo primes $p$ in a dyadic interval $[Q,2Q]$. The bound is nontrivial and gives a power…

In contrast to elliptic surfaces, the Fourier restriction problem for hypersurfaces of non-vanishing Gaussian curvature which admit principal curvatures of opposite signs is still hardly understood. In fact, even for 2-surfaces, the only…

Let $A(1,m)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form $\pi_1$ and $\lambda(m)$ be those of a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke holomorphic or Hecke-Mass cusp form $\pi_2$. Let $H\subset[\![…

We introduce a quadratic form $Q$ on the space of functions on the gap poset $G$ of the numerical semigroup $\langle a,b\rangle$. We prove combinatorially that when evaluated on the indicator function of an upward closed subset $D$, this…

We develop a heuristic for the density of integer points on affine cubic surfaces. Our heuristic applies to smooth surfaces defined by cubic polynomials that are log K3, but it can also be adjusted to handle singular cubic surfaces. We…

We study two analogs, for modular forms over $\mathbb{F}_{q}(T)$, of the pairing between Hecke algebra and cusp forms given by the first coefficient in the expansion. For Drinfeld modular forms, the $\mathbb{C}_{\infty}$-pairing is provided…

This paper studies the Fourier expansion of Hecke-Maass eigenforms for $GL(2, \mathbb Q)$ of arbitrary weight, level, and character at various cusps. Translating well known results in the theory of adelic automorphic representations into…

We improve the large sieve inequality with $k$th-power moduli, for all $k\ge 4$. Our method relates these inequalities to a restricted variant of Waring's problem. Firstly, we input a classical divisor bound on the number of representations…

We give a characterisation of the field into which quotients of values of L-functions associated to a cusp form belong. The construction involves shifted convolution series of divisor sums and to establish it we combine parts of F. Brown's…

We prove that given any $\epsilon > 0$ and a primitive adelic Hilbert cusp form $f$ of weight $k=(k_1,k_2,...,k_n) \in (2 \mathbb{Z})^n$ and full level, there exists an integral ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ with $N(\mathfrak{m}) \ll_{\epsilon}…

The quantitative distribution of twin primes remains a central open problem in number theory. This paper develops a heuristic model grounded in the principles of sieve theory, with the goal of constructing an analytical approximation for…

We give a short alternative proof using Heath-Brown's square sieve of a bound of the author for the large sieve with square moduli.

Let $A_f(1,n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a Hecke-Maass cusp form $f$ for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$ and $$ r_3(n)=\#\left\{(n_1,n_2,n_3)\in \mathbb{Z}^3:n_1^2+n_2^2+n_3^2=n\right\}. $$ Let $1\leq h\leq X$ and $\phi(x)$ be a smooth…
