We estimate mixed character sums of polynomial values over elements of a finite field $\mathbb F_{q^r}$ with sparse representations in a fixed ordered basis over the subfield $\mathbb F_q$. First we use a combination of the…

Fix irrational numbers $\alpha,\hat\alpha>1$ of finite type and real numbers $\beta,\hat\beta\ge 0$, and let $B$ and $\hat B$ be the Beatty sequences $$ B:=(\lfloor\alpha m+\beta\rfloor)_{m\ge 1}\quad\text{and}\quad\hat…

We establish that three well-known and rather different looking conjectures about Dirichlet characters and their (weighted) sums, (concerning the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov theorem for maximal character sums, the maximal admissible range in…

In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients. We prove some Omega results under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis.

We obtain a new bound on certain double sums of multiplicative characters improving the range of several previous results. This improvement comes from new bounds on the number of collinear triples in finite fields, which is a classical…

Following the work of Hildebrand we improve the Po'lya- Vinogradov inequality in a specific range, we also give a general result that shows its dependency on Burgess bound and at last we improve the range of validity for a special case of…

We obtain new bounds of multivariate exponential sums with monomials, when the variables run over rather short intervals. Furthermore, we use the same method to derive estimates on similar sums with multiplicative characters to which…

In this paper, we evaluate a smoothed character sum involving $\sum_{m}\sum_{n}\leg {m}{n}$, with quadratic, cubic or quartic Hecke characters $\leg {m}{n}$, and the two sums over $m$ and $n$ are of comparable lengths.

We improve a recent result of B. Hanson (2015) on multiplicative character sums with expressions of the type $a + b +cd$ and variables $a,b,c,d$ from four distinct sets of a finite field. We also consider similar sums with $a + b(c+d)$.…

For a polynomial $g(x)$ of deg $k \geq 2$ with integer coefficients and positive integer leading coefficient, we prove an upper bound for the least prime $p$ such that $g(p)$ is in non-homogeneous Beatty sequence $\lbrace \lfloor \alpha…

Let $p$ be a prime. We prove bounds on short Dirichlet character sums evaluated at a class of homogeneous polynomials in arbitrary dimensions. In every dimension, this bound is nontrivial for sums over boxes with side lengths as short as…

We provide a new hybrid estimation of single exponential sums, combining Van der Corput, Huxley and Bourgain's result. We also focus on primes in short intervals $(x-x^{\alpha},x]$ under the assumption of the existence of exceptional…

Let $\alpha,\beta$ be real numbers such that $\alpha>1$ is irrational and of finite type, and let $c$ be a real number in the range $1<c<\frac{14}{13}$. In this paper, it is shown that there are infinitely many Piatetski-Shapiro primes $p =…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. Using I. M. Vinogradov's bilinear estimate, we present an elementary approach to estimate nontrivially the character sum $$ \sum_{x\in H}\chi(x+a),\qquad a\in\Bbb F_p^*, $$ where $H<\Bbb F_p^*$ is a multiplicative…

In this article, we study extreme values of quadratic character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n \le N}f(n)\chi_d(n)$. For a positive number $N$ within a suitable range, we employ the resonance method to establish a…

Let $\alpha>1$ be irrational and of finite type, $\beta\in\mathbb{R}$. In this paper, it is proved that for $R\geqslant13$ and any fixed $c\in(1,c_R)$, there exist infinitely many primes in the intersection of Beatty sequence…

A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…

We study large values of quadratic character sums with summation lengths exceeding the square root of the modulus. Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain a new Omega result.

In this paper we find an identity that gives a representation for the logarithm of any two irrational numbers $a, b >1$ in terms of a series whose terms are ratios of elements from the Beatty Sequences generated by these two numbers. We…

We provide estimates for sums of the form \[\left|\sum_{a\in A}\sum_{b\in B}\sum_{c\in C}\chi(a+b+c)\right|\] and \[\left|\sum_{a\in A}\sum_{b\in B}\sum_{c\in C}\sum_{d\in D}\chi(a+b+cd)\right|\] when $A,B,C,D\subset \mathbb F_p$, the field…
