Let $I_{s,k,r}(X)$ denote the number of integral solutions of the modified Vinogradov system of equations $$x_1^j+\ldots +x_s^j=y_1^j+\ldots +y_s^j\quad (\text{$1\le j\le k$, $j\ne r$}),$$ with $1\le x_i,y_i\le X$ $(1\le i\le s)$. By…
When $k$ and $s$ are natural numbers and $\mathbf h\in \mathbb Z^k$, denote by $J_{s,k}(X;\mathbf h)$ the number of integral solutions of the system \[ \sum_{i=1}^s(x_i^j-y_i^j)=h_j\quad (1\le j\le k), \] with $1\le x_i,y_i\le X$. When…
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…
In this paper, we bound the number of solutions to a general Vinogradov system of equations $x_1^j+\dots+x_s^j=y_1^j+\dots+y_s^j$, $(1\leq j\leq k)$, as well as other related systems, in which the variables are required to satisfy digital…
In this paper we consider a linear homogeneous system of $m$ equations in $n$ unknowns with integer coefficients over the reals. Assume that the sum of the absolute values of the coefficients of each equation does not exceed $k+1$ for some…
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…
Let $p$ be a prime, let $s \geq 3$ be a natural number and let $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p$ be a non-empty set satisfying $|A| \ll p^{1/2}$. Denoting $J_s(A)$ to be the number of solutions to the system of equations \[ \sum_{i=1}^{s} (x_i -…
When $\mathbf h\in \mathbb Z^3$, denote by $B(X;\mathbf h)$ the number of integral solutions to the system \[ \sum_{i=1}^6(x_i^j-y_i^j)=h_j\quad (1\le j\le 3), \] with $1\le x_i,y_i\le X$ $(1\le i\le 6)$. When $h_1\ne 0$ and appropriate…
When $k\ge 4$ and $0\le d\le (k-2)/4$, we consider the system of Diophantine equations \[ x_1^j+\ldots +x_k^j=y_1^j+\ldots +y_k^j\quad (1\le j\le k,\, j\ne k-d). \] We show that in this cousin of a Vinogradov system, there is a paucity of…
Let $d\geq 2$ and $k\geq 1$ be fixed. We prove that, for every $\epsilon>0$ and every real $\beta$, there exist integers $1\leq b_1,\ldots,b_k\leq N$ such that \[ \left\|\sum_{j=1}^k b_j^{1/d}-\beta\right\| \ll_{d,k,\epsilon}…
In this paper, we establish a new mean value theorem of Bombieri-Vinogradov type over Piatetski-Shapiro sequence. Namely, it is proved that for any given constant $A>0$ and any sufficiently small $\varepsilon>0$, there holds…
We show that the properties of the lower part of the spectrum of the Helmholtz equation for an heterogeneous system in a finite region in $d$ dimensions, where the solutions to the homogeneous problems are known, can be systematically…
Let $a_{i1}x_1+\cdots+a_{ik}x_k=0$, $i\in[m]$ be a balanced homogeneous system of linear equations with coefficients $a_{ij}$ from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We say that a solution $x=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ with $x_1,\ldots, x_k\in…
In this paper, we present a variant of the Balog-Szemer\'edi-Gowers theorem for the Vinogradov system. We then use our result to deduce a higher degree analogue of the sum-product phenomenon.
We enhance the efficient congruencing method for estimating Vinogradov's integral for moments of order $2s$, with $1\le s\le k^2-1$. In this way, we prove the main conjecture for such even moments when $1\le s\le \tfrac{1}{4}(k+1)^2$,…
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 prove mean value formulas for classical solutions to second order linear differential equations in the form $$ \partial_t u = \sum_{i,j=1}^m X_i (a_{ij} X_j u) + X_0 u + f, $$ where $A = (a_{ij})_{i,j=1, \dots,m}$ is a bounded, symmetric…
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…
In this paper, we provide novel mean value estimates for exponential sums related to the extended main conjecture of Vinogradov's mean value theorem, by developing the Hardy-Littlewood circle method together with a refined shifting…
In this paper we obtain a new constant in the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality. Our argument follows previously established techniques which use the Fourier expansion of an interval to reduce to Gauss sums. Our improvement comes from…
