In this paper, we construct three binary linear codes $C(SO^+(2,q))$, $C(O^+(2,q))$, $C(SO^+(4,q))$, respectively associated with the orthogonal groups $SO^+(2,q)$, $O^+(2,q)$, $SO^+(4,q)$, with $q$ powers of two. Then we obtain recursive…
We provide a power-saving bound for certain smoothed shifted convolution sums for Fourier coefficients of Siegel cusp forms. This result is the first nontrivial estimate for a shifted convolution sum with two cusp forms on a group of higher…
We prove some distribution results for the $k$-fold divisor function in arithmetic progressions to moduli that exceed the square-root of length $X$ of the sum, with appropriate constrains and averaging on the moduli, saving a power of $X$…
We calculate the one-level density of thin subfamilies of a family of Hecke cuspforms formed by twisting the forms in a smaller family by a character. The result gives support up to 1, conditional on GRH, and we also find several of the…
We study sums of absolute values of Hecke eigenvalues of $\textrm{GL}(2)$ representations that are tempered at all finite places. We show that these sums exhibit logarithmic savings over the trivial bound if and only if the representation…
General results on convex bodies are reviewed and used to derive an exact closed-form parametric formula for the boundary of the geometric (Minkowski) sum of $k$ ellipsoids in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space. Previously this was done…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic $p\geq h$, the Coxeter number of $G$. We observe an easy `recursion formula' for computing the Jantzen sum formula of a Weyl module with…
In this paper, we establish some general Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorems for any dimensional manifolds with boundary which generalize the results in [WW1].
In this note, the polar decomposition of binary fields of even extension degree is used to reduce the evaluation of the Walsh transform of binomial Boolean functions to that of Gauss sums. In the case of extensions of degree four times an…
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…
The original formulae of Kuznetsov for $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ allowed one to study either a spectral average via Kloosterman sums or to study an average of Kloosterman sums via a spectral interpretation. In previous papers, we have developed…
We use a trivial delta method with multiplicative characters for congruence detection to prove the Weyl bound for GL(2) in $t$-aspect for a holomorphic or Hecke-Maass cusp form of arbitrary level and nebentypus. This parallels the work of…
Let $\mathbb{N}$ be the set of natural numbers and $\mathcal{S}_r=\big\{1^r, 2^r, 3^r,\cdots\big\}$ the set of $r$-th powers, where $r\ge 2$ is a natural number. Let $\mathcal{W}_r$ be an additive complement of $\mathcal{S}_r$ and $$…
The maximal degree over rational numbers that an n-dimensinonal Kloosterman sum defined over a finite field of characteristic p can achieve is known to be (p-1)/d where d=gcd(p-1,n+1). Wan has shown that this maximal degree is always…
Strong bounds - going beyond Sarnak's density hypothesis - are obtained for the number of automorphic forms for the congruence subgroup Gamma_0(q) of SL_n(Z) violating the Ramanujan conjecture at any given unramified place. The proof is…
We estimate Weyl sums over the integers with sum of binary digits either fixed or restricted by some congruence condition. In our proofs we use ideas that go back to a paper by Banks, Conflitti and the first author (2002). Moreover, we…
In this paper, we improve on Fouvry and Radziwi{\l}{\l}'s results on unbalanced convolutions. In particular, we find that if $(\alpha_m)$ and $(\beta_n)$ are sequences supported on $m\sim M$ and $n\sim M$ where $\beta$ is equidistributed…
We examine exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n \le X} w(n) e^{2\pi i\alpha n^k}$, for $k=1,2$, where $\alpha$ satisfies a generalized Diophantine approximation and where $w$ are different arithmetic functions that might be multiplicative,…
The authors have recently obtained a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension of the sets of vectors $(x_1, \ldots, x_d)\in [0,1)^d$ with large Weyl sums, namely of vectors for which $$ \left| \sum_{n=1}^{N}\exp(2\pi i (x_1 n+\ldots +x_d…
