Gelfond and Khovanskii found a formula for the sum of the values of a Laurent polynomial over the zeros of a system of n Laurent polynomials in the algebraic n-torus. We expect that a similar formula holds in the case of exponential sums…

When $A$ in the Kauffman bracket skein relation is a primitive $2N$th root of unity, where $N\geq 3$ is odd, the Kauffman bracket skein algebra $K_N(F)$ of a finite type surface $F$ is a ring extension of the $SL_2\mathbb{C}$-characters…

Let $n\ge 1$ be an integer and $e_n(x)$ denote the truncated exponential Taylor polynomial, i.e. $e_{n}(x)=\sum_{i=0}^n\frac{x^i}{i!}$. A well-known theorem of Schur states that the Galois group of $e_n(x)$ over $\Q$ is the alternating…

Hybrid character sums are an important class of exponential sums which have nice applications in coding theory and sequence design. Let $\gf_{p^m}$ be the finite field with $p^m$ elements for a prime $p$ and a positive integer $m$. Let…

Given a sheaf on a projective space P^n we define a sequence of canonical and easily computable Chow complexes on the Grassmannians of planes in P^n, generalizing the Beilinson monad on P^n. If the sheaf has dimension k, then the Chow form…

Let $k$ be a field, and let $L$ be an \'etale k-algebra of finite rank. If $a$ is a nonzero element in $k$, let $X_a$ be the affine variety defined by the norm equation $N_{L/k}(x) = a$. Assuming that $L$ has at least one factor that is a…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite-dimensional simple complex Lie algebra. A layer sum is introduced as the sum of formal exponentials of the distinct weights appearing in an irreducible $\mathfrak{g}$-module. It is argued that the character of…

In this paper we obtain some explicit expressions for the Euler characteristic of a rank n coherent sheaf F on P^N and of its twists F(t) as polynomials in the Chern classes c_i(F), also giving algorithms for the computation. The employed…

Each degree $n+k$ polynomial of the form $(x+1)^k(x^n+c_1x^{n-1}+\cdots +c_n)$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$, is representable as Schur-Szeg\H{o} composition of $n$ polynomials of the form $(x+1)^{n+k-1}(x+a_j)$. We study properties of the affine…

We compute the adjoint of the Serre derivative map with respect to the Petersson scalar product by using existing tools of nearly holomorphic modular forms. The Fourier coefficients of a cusp form of integer weight $k$, constructed using…

In order to compute Hermitian forms on representations of real reductive groups, in the unequal rank case, it is necessary to compute twisted Kazhdan-Lusztig-Vogan polynomials. These were defined by Lusztig and Vogan (Quasisplit Hecke…

Let $\lambda_{\phi}(n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke holomorphic or Hecke--Maass cusp form on ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies two mild hypotheses. We establish a non-trivial upper…

A Fourier restriction estimate is obtained for a broad class of conic surfaces by adding a weight to the usual underlying measure. The new restriction estimate exhibits a certain affine-invariance and implies the sharp $L^p-L^q$ restriction…

We study Jack characters, which are the coefficients of the power-sum expansion of Jack symmetric functions with a suitable normalization. These quantities have been introduced by Lassalle who formulated some challenging conjectures about…

We calculate the $E$-polynomials of the $SL_3(\mathbb{C})$ and $GL_3(\mathbb{C})$-character varieties of compact oriented surfaces of any genus and the $E$-polynomials of the $SL_2(\mathbb{C})$ and $GL_2(\mathbb{C})$-character varieties of…

In this note we introduce a new class of refined Eulerian polynomials defined by $$A_n(p,q)=\sum_{\pi\in\mathfrak{S}_n}p^{{\rm odes}(\pi)}q^{{\rm edes}(\pi)},$$ where ${\rm odes}(\pi)$ and ${\rm edes}(\pi)$ enumerate the number of descents…

We derive a truncated Voronoi identity for rationally additively twisted sums of Fourier coefficients of Maass forms for $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb Z)$, and as an application obtain a pointwise estimate and a second moment estimate for the sums…

For a nonprincipal character $\chi$ modulo $D$, when $x\ge D^{\frac56+\varepsilon}$, $(l,D) = 1$, we prove a nontrivial estimate of the form $\sum_{n\le x}\Lambda (n)\chi (n-l)\ll x\exp\left(-0.6\sqrt{\ln D}\right)$ for the sum of values of…
