We prove new bounds on bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums, complementing and improving a series of results by \'E. Fouvry, E. Kowalski and Ph. Michel (2014), V. Blomer, \'E. Fouvry, E. Kowalski, Ph. Michel and D. Mili\'cevi\'c (2017), E.…
Let $P_1,\dots,P_k \colon {\bf Z} \to {\bf Z}$ be polynomials of degree at most $d$ for some $d \geq 1$, with the degree $d$ coefficients all distinct, and admissible in the sense that for every prime $p$, there exists integers $n,m$ such…
We obtain statistical results on the possible distribution of all partial sums of a Kloosterman sum modulo a prime, by computing explicitly the support of the limiting random Fourier series of our earlier functional limit theorem for…
We show that both primes and smooth numbers are equidistributed in arithmetic progressions to moduli up to $x^{5/8 - o(1)}$, using triply-well-factorable weights for the primes (we also get improvements for the well-factorable linear sieve…
We prove an explicit error term for the $\psi(x,\chi)$ function assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Using this estimate, we prove a conditional explicit bound for the number of primes in arithmetic progressions.
We answer a number of questions of Erd\H{o}s on the existence of arithmetic progressions in $k$-full numbers (i.e. integers with the property that every prime divisor necessarily occurs to at least the $k$-th power). Further, we deduce a…
We show that if besides the primes some other sequences (involving the Liouville function and the primes) have a common distribution level exceeding 0.7231 then for any positive even integer $h$ there are arbitrarily long arithmetic…
We show that the multiple divisor functions of integers in invertible residue classes modulo a prime number, as well as the Fourier coefficients of GL(N) Maass cusp forms for all N larger than 2, satisfy a central limit theorem in a…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $\leq x$ which can be written as the product of $k ~(\geq 2)$ distinct primes $p_1\cdots p_k$ with each prime factor in an arithmetic progression $p_j\equiv a_j \bmod q$, $(a_j,…
We prove that assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis every even integer larger than $\exp(\exp(15.85))$ can be written as the sum of a prime number and a number that has at most two prime factors.
We prove a theorem that evaluates weighted averages of sums parametrised by congruence subgroups of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. In the proof, spectral methods are applied directly to the automorphic kernel instead of going over sums…
In this paper, we establish some theorems on the distribution of primes in higher-order progressions on average.
The series of some new estimates for the sums of the type \[ S_{q}(x;f)\,=\,\mathop{{\sum}'}\limits_{n\leqslant x}f(n)e_{q}(an^{*}+bn) \] is obtained. Here $q$ is a sufficiently large integer, $\sqrt{q}(\log{q})\!\ll\!x\leqslant q$, $a,b$…
We prove new upper bounds for a spectral exponential sum by refining the process by which one evaluates mean values of $L$-functions multiplied by an oscillating function. In particular, we introduce a method which is capable of taking into…
We investigate exponential sums over singular binary quartic forms, proving an explicit formula for the finite field Fourier transform of this set. Our formula shares much in common with analogous formulas proved previously for other vector…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain a lower bound within a constant factor of the conjectured asymptotic result for the second moment for primes in an individual arithmetic progression in short intervals. Previous results…
For two odd primes $p$ and $q$ such that $p<q$, let $A(p,q):=(a_k)_{k=1}^{\infty}$ be the arithmetic progression whose $k$th term is given by $a_k=(k-1)(q-p)+p$ (i.e., with $a_1=p$ and $a_2=q$). Here we conjecture that for every positive…
We present a method for finding large fixed-size primes of the form $X^2+c$. We study the density of primes on the sets $E_c = \{N(X,c)=X^2+c,\ X \in (2\mathbb{Z}+(c-1))\}$, $c \in \mathbb{N}^*$. We describe an algorithm for generating…
In this paper, the estimation formula of the number of primes in a given interval is obtained by using the prime distribution property. For any prime pairs $p>5$ and $ q>5 $, construct a disjoint infinite set sequence $A_1, A_2, \ldots,…
When solving a number of problems in prime number theory, it is sufficient that $t(x;q)$ admits an estimate close to this one. The best known estimates for $t(x;q)$ previously belonged to G.~Montgomery, R.~Vaughn, and Z.~Kh.~Rakhmonov. In…
