In this paper, we construct four binary linear codes closely connected with certain exponential sums over the finite field F_q and F_q-{0,1}. Here q is a power of two. Then we obtain four recursive formulas for the power moments of…

We construct explicit local systems on the affine line in characteristic $p>2$, whose geometric monodromy groups are the finite symplectic groups $Sp_{2n}(q)$ for all $n \ge 2$, and others whose geometric monodromy groups are the special…

Let R and S be two irreducible root systems spanning the same vector space and having the same Weyl group W, such that S (but not necessarily R) is reduced. For each such pair (R,S) we construct a family of W-invariant orthogonal…

In this paper, we construct the binary linear codes $C(SL(n,q))$ associated with finite special linear groups $SL(n,q)$, with both \emph{n,q} powers of two. Then, via Pless power moment identity and utilizing our previous result on the…

We propose a simple deterministic test for deciding whether or not an element $a \in \F_{2^n}^{\times}$ or $\F_{3^n}^{\times}$ is a zero of the corresponding Kloosterman sum over these fields, and rigorously analyse its runtime. The test…

We classify simple flops on smooth threefolds, or equivalently, Gorenstein threefold singularities with irreducible small resolution. There are only six families of such singularities, distinguished by Koll{\'a}r's {\em length} invariant.…

We show that integral monodromy groups of Kloosterman $\ell$-adic sheaves of rank $n\ge 2$ on $\mathbb{G}_m/\mathbb{F}_q$ are as large as possible when the characteristic $\ell$ is large enough, depending only on the rank. This variant of…

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.…

We compute and analyze isotropy subgroups of the complex orthogonal group with respect to the similarity transformation on itself and on skew-symmetric matrices. Their group structure is related to a group of certain nonsingular block…

Let $v$ be an odd real polynomial (i.e. a polynomial of the form $\sum_{j=1}^\ell a_jx^{2j-1}$). We utilize sets of iterated differences to establish new results about sets of the form $\mathcal…

This is the third one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with orthogonal groups in odd dimension.

Deligne constructed a remarkable local system on $\bP^1-\{0,\infty\}$ attached to a family of Kloosterman sums. Katz calculated its monodromy and asked whether there are Kloosterman sheaves for general reductive groups and which automorphic…

We study the monodromy of certain $\ell$-adic local systems attached to the generalized Kloosterman sheaves constructed by Yun and calculate their Euler characteristics under standard representations in the cases of symplectic and…

We give a construction of radial Fourier interpolation formulas in dimensions 3 and 4 using Maass--Poincar\'e type series. As a corollary we obtain explicit formulas for the basis functions of these interpolation formulas in terms of what…

Let $K_{q^n}(a)$ be a Kloosterman sum over the finite field $\F_{q^n}$ of characteristic $p$. In this note so called subfield conjecture is proved in case $p>3$: if $a\ne0$ belongs to the proper subfield $\F_q$ of $\F_{q^n}$, then…

For small dimensional Lie algebra's there are many so-called accidental isomorphisms which give rise to double covers of special orthogonal groups - Spin groups - which happen to coincide with groups already belonging to another…

In this paper, we study the power mean of a sum analogous to the Kloosterman sum by using analytic methods for character sums.

In this paper, we construct two ternary linear codes associated with the symplectic groups Sp(2,q) and Sp(4,q). Here q is a power of three. Then we obtain recursive formulas for the power moments of Kloosterman sums with square arguments…

In this paper we consider the fractional parts of a general sequence, for example the sequence $\alpha \sqrt{n}$ or $\alpha n^2$. We give a general method, which allows one to show that long-range correlations (correlations where the…

We study skew-orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight function $\exp[-2V(x)]$, with $V(x)=\sum_{K=1}^{2d}(u_{K}/{K})x^{K}$, $u_{2d} > 0$, $d > 0$. A finite subsequence of such skew-orthogonal polynomials arising in the study of…
