Recent work showed that ML-based attacks on Learning with Errors (LWE), a hard problem used in post-quantum cryptography, outperform classical algebraic attacks in certain settings. Although promising, ML attacks struggle to scale to more…

We obtain lower bounds for the cardinality of $k$-fold sum-sets of reciprocals of elements of suitable defined short intervals in high degree extensions of finite fields. Combining our results with bounds for multilinear character sums we…

We study the joint distribution of the solutions to the equation $gh=x$ in $G(\mathbb{F}_p)$ as $p\to\infty$, for any fixed $x\in G(\mathbb{Z})$, where $G=\operatorname{GL}_n$, $\operatorname{SL}_n$, $\operatorname{Sp}_{2n}$ or…

In [F81] Furstenberg introduced the notion of central set and established his famous Central Sets Theorem. Since then, several improved versions of Furstenberg's result have been found. The strongest generalization has been published by De,…

The main purpose of this Note is to provide a non-trivial bound on certain Kloosterman sums as considered in the recent paper of E. Fouvry [F], leading to a small improvement of his result on the Pell equation.

We investigate the asymptotic distribution of integrals of the $j$-function that are associated to ideal classes in a real quadratic field. To estimate the error term in our asymptotic formula, we prove a bound for sums of Kloosterman sums…

By using the elementary symmetric polynomials and some results of number theory, we solve the well known problem of Lehmer on Euler's totient function. As application, we obtain a new characterization of prime numbers.
