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…
Several asymptotic expansions and formulas for cubic exponential sums are derived. The expansions are most useful when the cubic coefficient is in a restricted range. This generalizes previous results in the quadratic case and helps to…
This paper describes a method to compute lower bounds for moments of $\zeta$ and $L$-functions. The method is illustrated in the case of moments of $|\zeta(\frac 12+it)|$, where the results are new for small moments $0< k<1$.
We present a new proof of Euler's formulas for $\zeta(2k)$, where $k = 1,2,3,...$, which uses only the defining properties of the Bernoulli polynomials, obtaining the value of $\zeta(2k)$ by summing a telescoping series. Only basic…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a new incremental procedure that can be used for numerical evaluation of the limit load. Existing incremental type methods are based on parametrization of the energy by the loading parameter…
We establish a new decoupling inequality for curves in the spirit of [B-D1], [B-D2] which implies a new mean value theorem for certain exponential sums crucial to the Bombieri-Iwaniec method as developed further in [H]. In particular, this…
Partial zeta functions of algebraic varieties over finite fields generalize the classical zeta function by allowing each variable to be defined over a possibly different extension field of a fixed finite field. Due to this extra variation…
We establish upper and lower bounds with matching leading terms for tails of weighted sums of two-sided exponential random variables. This extends Janson's recent results for one-sided exponentials.
Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and $E(T)$ the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/2\pi)$ with $\Delta^*(x) = -\Delta(x) +…
Several problems involving $E(T)$ and $E_2(T)$, the error terms in the mean square and mean fourth moment formula for $|\zeta(1/2+it)}$ are discussed. In particular, it is proved that $$ \int_0^T E(t)E_2(t)dt \ll_ T^{7/4}(\log…
We estimate short exponential sums weighted by the Fourier coefficients of a Maass form. This requires working out a certain transformation formula for non-linear exponential sums, which is of independent interest. We also discuss how the…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we make use of the recently discovered \cite{CLV} extremal majorants and minorants of prescribed exponential type for the function $\log\left(\tfrac{4 + x^2}{(\alpha-1/2)^2 + x^2}\right)$ to find upper and…
In this article, we give, under the Riemann hypothesis, an upper bound for the exponential moments of the imaginary part of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line. Our result, which gives information on the…
We show for all $1/2 \le \sigma \le 1$ and $t\ge 3$ that $\zeta(\sigma+it)| \le 76.2 t^{4.45 (1-\sigma)^{3/2}}$, where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta function. This significantly improves the previous bounds, where $4.45$ is replaced by…
We quantify the set of known exponent pairs $(k, \ell)$ and develop a framework to compute the optimal exponent pair for an arbitrary objective function. Applying this methodology, we make progress on several open problems, including bounds…
We construct an analytic approach to evaluate odd Euler sums, multiple zeta value $\zeta(3,2,\ldots,2)$ and multiple $t$-value $t\left(3,2,\ldots,2\right)$. Moreover, we also conjecture a closed expression for multiple $t$-value…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain an upper bound for the 2k-th moment of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the non-trivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ for every positive integer k. Our bounds are nearly as sharp as…
Small values of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ are investigated, using the value distribution results of A. Selberg. This gives an asymptotic formula for $\mu(\{0 < t \le T : |\zeta(1/2+it)| \le c\})$. Some related problems involving values of…
It is proved that Epstein's zeta-function $\zeta_{Q}(s)$, related to a positive definite integral binary quadratic form, has a zero $1/2 + i\gamma$ with $ T \leq \gamma \leq T + T^{{3/7} +\varepsilon} $ for sufficiently large positive…
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…
