Given a polynomial with integral coefficients, one can inquire about the possible residues it can take in its image modulo a prime $p$. The sum over the distinct residues can sometimes be computed independent of the prime $p$; for example,…
The multiplicative group of a finite field is well known to be cyclic; in this note, we determine the finite fields whose multiplicative groups are direct sum indecomposable. We obtain our classification using a direct argument and also as…
Issai Schur once asked if it was possible to determine a bound, preferably using elementary methods, such that for all prime numbers p greater than the bound, the greatest number of consecutive quadratic non-residues modulo p is always less…
We extend a bound of Roche-Newton, Shparlinski and Winterhof which says any subset of a finite field can be decomposed into two disjoint subset $\cU$ and $\cV$ of which the additive energy of $\cU$ and $f(\cV)$ are small, for suitably…
A set $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathbb{N}$ is called additively decomposable (resp. asymptotically additively decomposable) if there exist sets $\mathcal{B},\mathcal{C}\subset \mathbb{N}$ of cardinality at least two each such that…
We prove that any finite set of real numbers can be split into two parts, one part being highly non-additive and the other highly non-multiplicative.
The main purpose of this paper is to prove that the positive real numbers can be decomposed into finitely many disjoint pieces which are also closed under addition and multiplication. As a byproduct of the argument we determine all the…
Let $p$ be a large prime, and let $k\ll \log p$. A new proof of the existence of any pattern of $k$ consecutive quadratic residues and quadratic nonresidues is introduced in this note. Further, an application to the least quadratic…
For a set $S$ of quadratic polynomials over a finite field, let $C$ be the (infinite) set of arbitrary compositions of elements in $S$. In this paper we show that there are examples with arbitrarily large $S$ such that every polynomial in…
We investigate sumset decompositions of quite general sets with restricted prime factors. We manage to handle certain sets, such as the smooth numbers, even though they have little sieve amenability, and conclude that these sets cannot be…
In this paper, we study some topics concerning the additive decompositions of the set $D_k$ of all $k$th power residues modulo a prime $p$. For example, given a positive integer $k\ge2$, we prove that…
We describe all sets $A \subseteq \F_p$ which represent the quadratic residues $R \subseteq \F_p$ as $R=A+A$ and $R=A\hat{+} A$. Also, we consider the case of an approximate equality $R \approx A+A$ and $R \approx A\hat{+} A$ and prove that…
It's well known that the quadratic residue code over finite fields is an interesting class of cyclic codes for its higher minimum distance. Let $g$ be a positive integer and $p,p_{1},\ldots, p_{g}$ be distinct odd primes, the present paper…
Let $p\geq3$ be a large prime and let $n(p)\geq2$ denotes the least quadratic nonresidue modulo $p$. This note sharpens the standard upper bound of the least quadratic nonresidue from the unconditional upper bound $n(p)\ll…
Two conjectures, posed by Finch-Smith, Harrington, and Wong in a paper published in Integers in $2023$, are proven. Given a monic biquadratic polynomial $f(x) = x^4 + cx^2 + e$, we prove a formula for the sum of its distinct outputs modulo…
In this paper, we study several topics on additive decompositions of primitive elemements in finite fields. Also we refine some bounds obtained by Dartyge and S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy and Shparlinski.
We study whether a unital associative algebra $ A $ over a field admits a decomposition of the form $A = Z(A) + [A,A]$ where $ Z(A) $ is the center of $ A $ and $ [A,A] $ denotes the additive subgroup of $A$ generated by all additive…
We study the algebraic exceptional set for surfaces (S,B) of log general type, when B has at least three irreducible components; we prove that in most cases it is finite or empty.
We give a new proof of the fact that any finite quadratic module can be decomposed into indecomposable ones. For any indecomposable finite quadratic module, we construct a lattice, and a positive definite lattice, both of which are of the…
We prove various low-energy decomposition results, showing that we can decompose a finite set $A\subset \mathbb{F}_p$ satisfying $|A|<p^{5/8}$, into $A = S\sqcup T$ so that, for a non-degenerate quadratic $f\in \mathbb{F}_p[x,y]$, we have…
