We determine explicitly the Gauss sums on the general linear group $GL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^l\mathbb{Z})$ for all irreducible characters, where $p$ is an odd prime and $l$ is an integer > 1. While there are several studies of the Gauss sums on…

In this note, we give explicit expressions of Gauss sums for general (resp. special) linear groups over finite fields, which involves Gauss sums (resp. Kloosterman sums). The key ingredient is averaging such sums over Borel subgroups. As…

We consider a generalized Gauss sum supported on matrices over a number field. We evaluate this Gauss sum and relate it to the number of totally isotropic subspaces of related quadratic spaces. Then we consider a further generalization of…

Let $R$ be a finite ring with unity, $\psi: R \to \mathbb{C}^\times$ be an additive character of $R$, and \( \chi_0 \) be the principal multiplicative character ($i.e.$, $\chi_0(x) = 1 \quad \text{for all } x \in R^\times$), then the Gauss…

We calculate Gaussian averages of arbitrary exponentials of the matrix variable $X$ with the help of superintegrability, which provides explicit expressions for Schur averages. As in the simpler cases the answer is expressed in terms of…

An elementary approach is shown which derives the values of the Gauss sums over $\mathbb F_{p^r}$, $p$ odd, of a cubic character without using Davenport-Hasse's theorem. New links between Gauss sums over different field extensions are shown…

Inspired by the works of L. Carlitz and Z.-W. Sun on cyclotomic matrices, in this paper, we investigate certain cyclotomic matrices involving Gauss sums over finite fields, which can be viewed as finite field analogues of certain matrices…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $q=p^f$ for some positive integer $f$, $N$ be a positive integer such that $\gcd(N,p)=1$, and let $\k$ be a primitive multiplicative character of order $N$ over finite field $\fq$. This paper studies the problem…

We construct, for any finite commutative ring $R$, a family of representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(R)$ whose intertwining properties mirror those of the principal series for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a finite field.

The classical quadratic Gauss sum can be thought of as an exponential sum attached to a quadratic form on a cyclic group. We introduce an equivariant version of Gauss sum for arbitrary finite quadratic forms, which is an exponential sum…

Average of exponential ${\rm Tr}_R e^X$, i.e. of a group rather than an algebra character, in Gaussian matrix model is known to be an amusing generalization of Schur polynomial, where time variables are substituted by traces of products of…

We develop the generalized Cartan Calculus for the groups $G=$SL$(2,\mathbb{R})\times\mathbb{R}^+$, SL$(5,\mathbb{R})$ and SO(5,5). They are the underlying algebraic structures of $d=9,7,6$ exceptional field theory, respectively. These…

For a prime $p$ and a positive integer $s$ consider a homogeneous linear system over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p^s}$ (the ring of integers modulo $p^s$) described by an $n \times m$-matrix. The possible number of solutions to such a system is…

Integrals for the product of unitary-matrix elements over the U(n) group will be discussed. A group-theoretical formula is available to convert them into a multiple sum, but unfortunately the sums are often tedious to compute. In this…

In this paper we characterize invertible matrices over an arbitrary commutative antiring S and find the structure of GL_n (S). We find the number of nilpotent matrices over an entire commutative finite antiring. We prove that every…

In the past two decades, many researchers have studied {\it index $2$} Gauss sums, where the group generated by the characteristic $p$ of the underling finite field is of index $2$ in the unit group of ${\mathbb Z}/m{\mathbb Z}$ for the…

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…

We provide explicit formulas for quadratic Gauss sums over $\mathbb{Z}^n/c\mathbb{Z}^n$, which generalize some of the existing formulas, e.g., Skoruppa and Zagier's (for $n=2$), and Iwaniec and Kowalski's (for arbitrary $n$). We then give…

Explicit determinations of several classes of trigonometric sums are given. These sums can be viewed as analogues or generalizations of Gauss sums. In a previous paper, two of the present authors considered primarily sine sums associated…

For $n > 2$, let $\Gamma$ denote either $SL(n, Z)$ or $Sp(n, Z)$. We give a practical algorithm to compute the level of the maximal principal congruence subgroup in an arithmetic group $H\leq \Gamma$. This forms the main component of our…
