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…

We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime $p$ with binomials $ax^k + bx^n$. In particular, for $k=1$, we improve the bound of Karatsuba (1967) from $O(n^{1/4} p^{3/4})$ to $O\left(p^{3/4} + n^{1/3}p^{2/3}\right)$ for any $n$,…

We consider a problem posed by Shparlinski, of giving nontrivial bounds for rational exponential sums over the arithmetic function $\tau(n)$, counting the number of divisors of $n$. This is done using some ideas of Sathe concerning the…

Exponential sums with monomials are highly related to many interesting problems in number theory and well studied by many literatures. In this paper, we consider the exponential sums with polynomials and prove a new upper bound. As an…

We prove prime exponential sums have no better than square root cancellation on average on short intervals, in the sense that $$\frac{1}{x} \sum_{-y< n\le x} \left|\sum_{\substack{n< m \le n+y\\ 1\le m \le x}} \Lambda(m) \mathrm{e}(\alpha…

In this paper we continue our study, begun in part I, of the exceptional set of integers, not restricted by elementary congruence conditions, which cannot be represented as sums of three or four squares of primes. We correct a serious…

We study exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n=1}^N e^{2\pi i a b^n/m}$ for non-zero integers $a,b,m$. Classically, non-trivial bounds were known for $N\ge \sqrt{m}$ by Korobov, and this range has been extended significantly by Bourgain as…

In 1977 Montgomery and Vaughan gave tight bounds for exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n\leq x}f(n)e(n\alpha)$ where $f$ is a $1$-bounded multiplicative function and $\alpha\in\mathbb R$, close to the conjectured $\ll \frac{x}{\sqrt{q}}+…

We give an upper bound for the exponential sum over squarefree integers. This establishes a conjecture by Br\"udern and Perelli.

We prove some general estimates for exponential sums over subsets of finite fields which are definable in the language of rings. This generalizes both the classical exponential sum estimates over varieties over finite fields due to Weil,…

We use an estimate of Aksoy Yazici, Murphy, Rudnev and Shkredov (2016) on the number of solutions of certain equations involving products and differences of sets in prime finite fields to give an explicit upper bound on trilinear…

We obtain new bounds on complete rational exponential sums with sparse polynomials modulo a prime, under some mild conditions on the degrees of the monomials of such polynomials. These bounds, when they apply, give explicit versions of a…

We construct a non - improved exponential bounds for distribution of normed sums of i.,i.d. random variables with random numbers of summand.

We obtain new bounds of multivariate exponential sums with monomials, when the variables run over rather short intervals. Furthermore, we use the same method to derive estimates on similar sums with multiplicative characters to which…

We improve an existing result on exponential quadrilinear sums in the case of sums over multiplicative subgroups of a finite field and use it to give a new bound on exponential sums with quadrinomials.

We establish completely log-free bounds for exponential sums over the primes and the M\"{o}bius function. Let $0<\eta \leq 1/10$, and suppose $\alpha = a/q + \delta/x$, with $(a,q)=1$ and $|\delta| \leq x^{1/5 + \eta}/q$, and set $\delta_0…

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 the infinitude of shifted primes $p-1$ without prime factors above $p^{0.2844}$. This refines $p^{0.2961}$ from Baker and Harman in 1998. Consequently, we obtain an improved lower bound on the the distribution of Carmichael…

Let $g$ be sufficiently large, $b\in\{0,\ldots,g-1\}$, and $\mathcal{S}_b$ be the set of integers with no digit equal to $b$ in their base $g$ expansion. We prove that every sufficiently large odd integer $N$ can be written as $p_1 + p_2 +…

This is an expository account of the proof of the theorem of Bourgain, Glibichuk and Konyagin which provides non-trivial bounds for exponential sums over very small multiplicative subgroups of prime finite fields.
