In recent years, there has been a lot of progress in obtaining non-trivial bounds for bilinear forms of Kloosterman sums in $\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}$ for arbitrary integers $m$. These results have been motivated by a wide variety of…
In this paper, we investigate the large deviations of sums of weighted random variables that are approximately independent, generalizing and improving some of the results of Montgomery and Odlyzko. We are motivated by examples arising from…
We prove non-trivial bounds for bilinear forms with hyper-Kloosterman sums with characters modulo a prime $q$ which, for both variables of length $M$, are non-trivial as soon as $M\geq q^{3/8+\delta}$ for any $\delta>0$. This range, which…
Recently, Grynkiewicz et al. [{\it Israel J. Math.} {\bf 193} (2013), 359--398], using tools from additive combinatorics and group theory, proved necessary and sufficient conditions under which the linear congruence $a_1x_1+\cdots…
In 1987, Alzer posed a conjecture on generalized logarithmic mean, which was introduced by Stolarsky in 1975. To prove Alzer's conjecture, Lou posed a conjecture on generalized inverse harmonic mean in 1995. By proving Lou's conjecture, the…
Let $\F_q$ ($q=p^r$) be a finite field. In this paper the number of irreducible polynomials of degree $m$ in $\F_q[x]$ with prescribed trace and norm coefficients is calculated in certain special cases and a general bound for that number is…
We obtain several asymptotic formulas for the sum of the divisor function $\tau(n)$ with $n \le x$ in an arithmetic progressions $n \equiv a \pmod q$ on average over $a$ from a set of several consecutive elements from set of reduced…
Let $q$ be a positive integer, $\chi$ a nontrivial character mod $q$, $\mathcal{I}$ an interval of length not exceeding $q.$ In this paper we shall study the character sum analogue of the well-known Kloosterman…
We introduce a commutator method with multipliers to prove averaging lemmas, the regularizing effect for the velocity average of solutions for kinetic equations. This method requires only elementary techniques in Fourier analysis and shows…
Using the character expansion method, we generalize several well-known integrals over the unitary group to the case where general complex matrices appear in the integrand. These integrals are of interest in the theory of random matrices and…
Corentin Perret-Gentil proved, under some very general conditions, that short sums of $\ell$-adic trace functions over finite fields of varying center converges in law to a Gaussian random variable or vector. The main inputs are…
In this paper, we will present a generalization for a minimization problem from I. Daubechies, M. Defrise, and C. Demol [3]. This generalization is useful for solving many practical problems in which more than one constraint are involved.…
We use some elementary arguments to obtain a new bound on bilinear sums with weighted Kloosterman sums which complements those recently obtained by E. Kowalski, P. Michel and W. Sawin (2020).
For a positive integer $m$ and a subgroup $\Lambda$ of the unit group $(\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times$, the corresponding generalized Kloosterman sum is the function $K(a,b,m,\Lambda) = \sum_{u \in \Lambda}e(\frac{au + bu^{-1}}{m})$.…
This paper introduces two forms of modular inverses and proves their reciprocity formulas respectively. These formulas are then applied to formulate new and generalized algorithm for computing these modular inverses. The same algorithm is…
After different variables and functions changes, the generalized dispersal problem, recalled in (1) below and considered in part I, see Labbas, Maingot and Thorel [14], leads us to consider, to study and to invert the sum of linear…
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…
Arslan, Altoum, and Zaarour introduced an inversion statistic for generalized symmetric groups. In this work, we study the distribution of this statistic over colored permutations, including derangements and involutions. By establishing a…
We show that all Eichler integrals, and more generally all "generalized second order modular forms" can be expressed as linear combinations of corresponding generalized second order Eisenstein series with coefficients in classical modular…
Mirkovi\'c introduced the notion of character sheaves on a Lie algebra. Due to their simple geometric characterization, character sheaves on Lie algebras can be thought of as a simplified model for Lusztig's theory of character sheaves on…
