We describe mean value estimates for exponential sums of degree exceeding 2 that approach those conjectured to be best possible. The vehicle for this recent progress is the efficient congruencing method, which iteratively exploits the…

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,…

In this article we study two fundamental problems on exponential sums via randomization of frequencies with stochastic processes. These are the Hardy-Littlewood majorant problem, and $L^{2n}(\mathbb{T}), \ n\in \mathbb{N}$ norms of…

There is not much that can be said for all $x$ and for all $n$ about the sum \[ \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{|\sin k\pi x|}. \] However, for this and similar sums, series, and products, we can establish results for almost all $x$ using the tools…

We establish an essentially optimal estimate for the ninth moment of the exponential sum having argument $\alpha x^3+\beta x$. The first substantial advance in this topic for over 60 years, this leads to improvements in Heath-Brown's…

We present a number of results relating partial Cauchy-Littlewood sums, integrals over the compact classical groups, and increasing subsequences of permutations. These include: integral formulae for the distribution of the longest…

Research on power values of power sums has gained much attention of late, partially due to the explosion of refinements in multiple advanced tools in (computational) Number Theory in recent years. In this survey, we present the key tools…

We augment the method of Wooley (2015) by some new ideas and in a series of results, improve his metric bounds on the Weyl sums and the discrepancy of fractional parts of real polynomials with partially prescribed coefficients. We also…

A basic question of Diophantine approximation, which is the first issue we discuss, is to investigate the rational approximations to a single real number. Next, we consider the algebraic or polynomial approximations to a single complex…

In this paper, we provide novel mean value estimates for exponential sums related to the extended main conjecture of Vinogradov's mean value theorem, by developing the Hardy-Littlewood circle method together with a refined shifting…

In this note, an upper bound for the sum of fractional parts of certain smooth functions is established. Such sums arise naturally in numerous problems of analytic number theory. The main feature is here an improvement of the main term due…

We prove a number of \textit{a priori} estimates for weak solutions of elliptic equations or systems with vertically independent coefficients in the upper-half space. These estimates are designed towards applications to boundary value…

This paper studies the minimal conditions under which we can establish asymptotic formulae for Waring's problem and other additive problems that may be tackled by the circle method. We confirm in quantitative terms the well-known heuristic…

We present estimates for smooth Weyl sums of use on sets of major arcs in applications of the Hardy-Littlewood method. In particular, we derive mean value estimates on major arcs for smooth Weyl sums of degree $k$ delivering essentially…

We show how to adapt the Hardy--Littlewood circle method to count monochromatic solutions to diagonal Diophantine equations. This delivers a lower bound which is optimal up to absolute constants. The method is illustrated on equations…

Under the generalized Lindel\"of Hypothesis in the t- and q-aspects, we bound exponential sums with coefficients of Dirichlet series belonging to a certain class. We use these estimates to establish a conditional result on squares of Hecke…

This note provides new closed forms evaluations of a few classes of exponential sums associated with elliptic curves and hyperelliptic curves.

We prove upper and lower bounds for certain sums of products of fractional parts by using majoring and minorizing functions from Fourier analysis. In special cases the upper bounds are sharp if there exist counterexamples to the Littlewood…
