This is an expository paper, giving a simplified proof of the cubic case of the main conjecture for Vinogradov's mean value theorem.
We obtain estimates for Vinogradov's integral which for the first time approach those conjectured to be the best possible. Several applications of these new bounds are provided. In particular, the conjectured asymptotic formula in Waring's…
This is the expository essay that accompanies my Bourbaki Seminar on 17 June 2017 on the landmark proof of the Vinogradov Mean Value Theorem, and the two approaches developed in the work of Wooley and of Bourgain, Demeter and Guth.
We apply a nested variant of multigrade efficient congruencing to estimate mean values related to that of Vinogradov. We show that when $\varphi_j\in \mathbb Z[t]$ $(1\le j\le k)$ is a system of polynomials with non-vanishing Wronskian, and…
We apply the efficient congruencing method to estimate Vinogradov's integral for moments of order 2s, with 1<=s<=k^2-1. Thereby, we show that quasi-diagonal behaviour holds when s=o(k^2), we obtain near-optimal estimates for…
We obtain sharp estimates for multidimensional generalisations of Vinogradov's mean value theorem for arbitrary translation-dilation invariant systems, achieving constraints on the number of variables approaching those conjectured to be the…
We obtain finite field analogues of a series of recent results on various mean value theorems for Weyl sums. Instead of the Vinogradov Mean Value Theorem, our results rest on the classical argument of Mordell, combined with several other…
We give an effective version with explicit constants of a mean value theorem of Vaughan related to the values of \psi(y, \chi), the twisted summatory function associated to the von Mangoldt function \Lambda and a Dirichlet character \chi.…
We use a generalization of Vinogradov's mean value theorem of S. Parsell, S. Prendiville and T. Wooley and ideas of W. Schmidt to give nontrivial bounds for the number of solutions to polynomial congruences, for arbitrary polynomials, when…
We apply a variant of the multigrade efficient congruencing method to estimate Vinogradov's integral of degree $3$ for moments of order $2s$, establishing strongly diagonal behaviour for $1\le s\le 6$. Consequently, the main conjecture is…
We establish improved mean value estimates associated with the number of integer solutions of certain systems of diagonal equations, in some instances attaining the sharpest conjectured conclusions. This is the first occasion on which…
We apply multigrade efficient congruencing to estimate Vinogradov's integral of degree $k$ for moments of order $2s$, establishing strongly diagonal behaviour for $1\le s\le \frac{1}{2}k(k+1)-\frac{1}{3}k+o(k)$. In particular, as…
We obtain a new bound for incomplete Gauss sums modulo primes. Our argument falls under the framework of Vinogradov's method which we use to reduce the problem under consideration to bounding the number of solutions to two distinct systems…
We present a hybrid approach to bounding exponential sums over kth powers via Vinogradov's mean value theorem, and derive estimates of utility for exponents k of intermediate size.
We develop a multigrade enhancement of the efficient congruencing method to estimate Vinogradov's integral of degree $k$ for moments of order $2s$, thereby obtaining near-optimal estimates for $\tfrac{5}{8}k^2<s\le k^2-k+1$. There are…
We give a slight refinement to the process by which estimates for exponential sums are extracted from bounds for Vinogradov's mean value. Coupling this with the recent works of Wooley, and of Bourgain, Demeter and Guth, providing optimal…
Given a family $\varphi= (\varphi_1, \ldots, \varphi_d)\in \mathbb{Z}[T]^d$ of $d$ distinct nonconstant polynomials, a positive integer $k\le d$ and a real positive parameter $\rho$, we consider the mean value $$ M_{k, \rho} (\varphi, N) =…
We apply recent progress on Vinogradov's mean value theorem to improve bounds for the function $H(k)$ in the Waring-Goldbach problem. We obtain new results for all exponents $k \ge 7$, and in particular establish that for large $k$ one has…
In this paper we follow a paper from A. Sedunova (2017) regarding R. C. Vaughan's basic mean value Theorem (Acta Arith. 1980) to improve and complete a more general demonstration for a suitable class of arithmetic functions as started by A.…
We show that even mild improvements of the Polya-Vinogradov inequality would imply significant improvements of Burgess' bound on character sums. Our main ingredients are a lower bound on certain types of character sums (coming from works of…
