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 obtain a new estimate for Kloosterman sum with primes $p\leqslant X$ to composite modulo $q$, that is, for the exponential sum of the type \[ \sum\limits_{p\leqslant X,\;p\,\nmid q}\exp{\biggl(\frac{2\pi…

We present new ideas for computing elliptic Gau{\ss} sums, which constitute an analogue of the classical cyclotomic Gau{\ss} sums and whose use has been proposed in the context of counting points on elliptic curves and primality tests. By…

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.…

In this paper, we focus on a family of generalized Kloosterman sums over the torus. With a few changes to Haessig and Sperber's construction, we derive some relative $p$-adic cohomologies corresponding to the $L$-functions. We present…

In this paper, we consider universal sums of generalized polygonal numbers. Fixing $m\in\mathbb{N}_{\geq 3}$, we show two finiteness theorems for universal sums of generalized polygonal numbers whose inputs have a restricted number $L$ of…

Motivated by the work on hypergeometric summation theorems (recorded in the table III of Prudnikov et al. pp. 541-546), we have established some new summation theorems for Clausen's hypergeometric functions with unit argument in terms of…

We prove a bound for quintilinear sums of Kloosterman sums, with congruence conditions on the "smooth" summation variables. This generalizes classical work of Deshouillers and Iwaniec, and is key to obtaining power-saving error terms in…

We present a common ground for infinite sums, unordered sums, Riemann/Lebesgue integrals, arc length and some generalized means. It is based on extending functions on finite sets using Hausdorff metric in a natural way.

We use techniques of relative algebraic K-theory to develop a common refinement of the existing theories of metrized and hermitian Galois structures in arithmetic. As a first application of this very general approach, we then use it to…

We estimate the sums \[ \sum_{c\leq x} \frac{S(m,n,c,\chi)}{c}, \] where the $S(m,n,c,\chi)$ are Kloosterman sums of half-integral weight on the modular group. Our estimates are uniform in $m$, $n$, and $x$ in analogy with Sarnak and…

We consider a family of character sums as multiplicative analogues of Kloosterman sums. Using Gauss sums, Jacobi sums and Deligne's bound for hyper-Kloosterman sums, we establish asymptotic formulae for any real (positive) moments of the…

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 obtain a nontrivial bound on the number of solutions to the equation $$ A^{x_1} + \ldots + A^{x_\nu} = A^{x_{\nu+1}} + \ldots + A^{x_{2\nu}}, \quad 1 \le x_1, \ldots,x_{2\nu} \le \tau, $$ with a fixed $n\times n$ matrix $A$ over a finite…

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…

Explicit determinations of several classes of trigonometric sums are given. These sums can be viewed as analogues or generalizations of Gauss sums. In a previous paper, two of the present authors considered primarily sine sums associated…

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…

We study generalized sums of linear orders. These are binary operations that, given linear orders $A$ and $B$, return an order $A \oplus B$ that can be decomposed as an isomorphic copy of $A$ interleaved with a copy of $B$. We show that…

In this note, we deduce an asymptotic formula for even power moments of Kloosterman sums based on the important work of N. M. Katz on Kloosterman sheaves. In a similar manner, we can also obtain an upper bound for odd power moments.…
