Exponential sums with sparse polynomials over finite fields

Number Theory 2020-07-30 v1

Abstract

We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime pp with sparse polynomials a0xn0++aνxnνa_0x^{n_0} + \cdots + a_{\nu}x^{n_\nu}. The bounds depend on various greatest common divisors of exponents n0,,nνn_0, \ldots, n_\nu and their differences. In particular, two new bounds for binomials are obtained, improving previous results in broad ranges of parameters.
