We present new estimates for sums of the divisor function, and other similar arithmetic functions, in short intervals over function fields. (When the intervals are long, one obtains a good estimate from the Riemann hypothesis.) We obtain an…
We give a short survey of the phenomenon of better than squareroot cancellation, specifically as it applies to averages of multiplicative character sums (such as $\frac{1}{r-1} \sum_{\chi \; \text{mod} \; r} |\sum_{n \leq x} \chi(n)|^{2q}$)…
We prove estimates for the level of distribution of the M\"obius function, von Mangoldt function, and divisor functions in squarefree progressions in the ring of polynomials over a finite field. Each level of distribution converges to $1$…
Let $R$ be a finite ring (with unit, not necessarily commutative) and define the paraboloid $P = \{(x_1, \dots, x_d)\in R^d|x_d = x_1^2 + \dots + x_{d-1}^2\}.$ Suppose that for a sequence of finite rings of size tending to infinity, the…
Let Q_0 denote the rational numbers expanded to a "meadow", that is, after taking its zero-totalized form (0^{-1}=0) as the preferred interpretation. In this paper we consider "cancellation meadows", i.e., meadows without proper zero…
In this paper we demonstrate the first example of a finite translation plane which does not contain a translation hyperoval, disproving a conjecture of Cherowitzo. The counterexample is a semifield plane, specifically a Generalised Twisted…
We establish cancellation in short sums of certain special trace functions over $\mathbb{F}_q[u]$ below the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov range, with savings approaching square-root cancellation as $q$ grows. This is used to resolve the…
Let $R$ be a finite ring and define the hyperbola $H=\{(x,y) \in R \times R: xy=1 \}$. Suppose that for a sequence of finite odd order rings of size tending to infinity, the following "square root law" bound holds with a constant $C>0$ for…
The primary purpose of this paper is to show the existence of normal square and nth roots of some classes of bounded operators on Hilbert spaces. Two interesting simple results hold. Namely, under simple conditions we show that if any…
We give a level one result for the "symmetry integral", say $I_f(N,h)$, of essentially bounded $f:\N \to \R$; i.e., we get a kind of "square-root cancellation" \thinspace bound for the mean-square (in $N<x\le 2N$) of the "symmetry"…
The object of this study is an integral operator $\mathcal{S}$ which averages functions in the Euclidean upper half-space $\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n}$ over the half-spheres centered on the topological boundary $\partial \mathbb{R}_{+}^{n}$. By…
We study cancellation in sums of Hecke eigenvalues over irreducible quadratic polynomials over short intervals. In particular, we look at an average over bases of Hecke forms of weight $k$ in the range $\vert k-K\vert<K^\theta$ where…
We prove that every isometry of between (not-necessarily orthogonal) summands of a unimodular quadratic space over a semiperfect ring can be extended an isometry of the whole quadratic space. The same result was proved by Reiter for the…
We explain how the (shifted) Ratios Conjecture for $L(s,\chi)$ would extend a randomization argument of Harper from a conductor-limited range to an unlimited range of ``beyond square-root cancellation'' for character twists of the Liouville…
We present a novel idea to compute square roots over finite fields, without being given any quadratic nonresidue, and without assuming any unproven hypothesis. The algorithm is deterministic and the proof is elementary. In some cases, the…
In this paper, we study the average of shifted sum for general multiplicative functions. As applications, we prove non-trivial upper bounds for weighted averages of shifted convolutions involving $GL(2)$ and $GL(3)$ Fourier coefficients…
A practical method is presented for determining root and pole cancellation functions of a matrix function $Q(z)$ meromorphic on the extended complex plane $\bar{\mathbb{C}}:=\mathbb{C} \cup \left\{ \infty \right\}$. This method is applied…
In Effective Field Theories (EFTs) with higher-dimensional operators many anomalous dimensions vanish at the one-loop level for no apparent reason. With the use of supersymmetry, and a classification of the operators according to their…
Let A be a ring of dimension d and let P be a projective A-module of rank d. We prove that if for every finite extension R of A, R^d is cancellative, then P is cancellative. This gives an alternate proof of Bhatwadekar's result: every…
We prove an explicit residue formula for a meromorphic continuation of conformally covariant integral operators between differential forms on ${\bf R}^n$ and on its hyperplane. The results provide a simple and new construction of the…
