We consider sums of the form $$F_\chi(\alpha,\beta;\theta) := \sum_{\alpha p<n\le\beta p}\chi(n)e(n\theta),$$ where $\chi$ is a non-principal Dirichlet character modulo a prime number $p$. We prove that $$ \sqrt p \log \log p \ll \max_{0…

In this paper, we study the distribution of difference of multiplicative and additive characters modulo $p$ at consecutive polynomial values. More precisely, for an interval $I$ over finite field and $0<m<1$, we investigate the following…

Let $M(\chi)$ denote the maximum of $|\sum_{n\le N}\chi(n)|$ for a given non-principal Dirichlet character $\chi \pmod q$, and let $N_\chi$ denote a point at which the maximum is attained. In this article we study the distribution of…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the maximum of partial sums of certain cubic exponential sums, commonly known as "Birch sums". Our main theorem gives upper and lower bounds (of nearly the same order of magnitude) for the…

Let $q=p^n$ with $n=2m$ and $p$ be an odd prime. Let $0\leq k\leq n-1$ and $k\neq m$. In this paper we determine the value distribution of following exponential(character) sums \[\sum\limits_{x\in \bF_q}\zeta_p^{\Tra_1^m (\alpha…

We obtain explicit estimates for the mixed character sum $S= S(\chi,g,f,p^m) = \sum_{x=1}^{p^m} \chi (g(x)) e_{p^m}(f(x))$, where $p^m$ is a prime power, $\chi$ is a multiplicative character mod $p^m$ and $f,g$ are rational functions over…

A modified Dirichlet character $f$ is a completely multiplicative function such that for some Dirichlet character $\chi$, $f(p)=\chi(p)$ for all but a finite number of primes $p\in S$, and for those exceptional primes $p\in S$, $|f(p)|\leq…

For a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi\pmod q$ we let \[M(\chi):= \frac{1}{\sqrt{q}}\max_{1\leq t \leq q} \Big|\sum_{n \leq t} \chi(n) \Big|.\] In this paper, we investigate the distribution of $M(\chi)$, as $\chi$ ranges over primitive…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the maximum of character sums over the family of primitive quadratic characters attached to fundamental discriminants $|d|\leq x$. In particular, our work improves results of Montgomery and…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$, and $P \in E(\mathbb{F}_p)$ be an $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational point. We study the sums \[ S_{\chi,P}(N,h) = \sum_{n=1}^N \chi(\psi_n(P)) \chi(\psi_{n+h}(P)), \] where…

The authors study the distribution of zeros of the Fekete polynomial f_p(t) (defined for p prime) as p -> infinity. They show that asymptotically a constant fraction of the zeros lie on the unit circle, and they investigate the constant of…

In this paper, we study the value distribution of the derivative of a Dirichlet $L$-function $L'(s,\chi)$ at the $a$-points $\rho_{a,\chi}=\beta_{a,\chi}+i\gamma_{a,\chi}$ of $L(s,\chi).$ We give an asymptotic formula for the sum…

This article examines the value distribution of $S_{N}(f, \alpha) := \sum_{n=1}^N f(n\alpha)$ for almost every $\alpha$ where $N \in \mathbb{N}$ is ranging over a long interval and $f$ is a $1$-periodic function with discontinuities or…

Let $q=p^n$ with $p$ be an odd prime. Let $0\leq k\leq n-1$ and $k\neq n/2$. In this paper we determine the value distribution of following exponential(character) sums \[\sum\limits_{x\in \bF_q}\zeta_p^{\Tra_1^n(\alpha x^{p^{3k}+1}+\beta…

We prove distributional results for mixed character sums \begin{equation*} \sum_{n\le x }\chi(n)e(n\theta), \end{equation*} for fixed $\theta\in [0,1]$ and random character $\chi \pmod q$, as well as for a fixed character $\chi$ and…

In this article, we investigate large values of Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n\le N}f(n)\chi(n)$. We prove an Omega result in the region $\exp((\log q)^{\frac12+\varepsilon})\le N\le\sqrt q$, where $q$ is…

In this paper, we investigate large values of Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n\le N}f(n)\chi(n)$. We prove a new Omega result in the region $\exp((\log q)^{\frac12+\delta})\le N\le\sqrt q$, where $q$ is the…

We obtain explicit bounds on the moments of character sums, refining estimates of Montgomery and Vaughan. As an application we obtain results on the distribution of the maximal magnitude of character sums normalized by the square root of…

We consider the distribution in residue classes modulo primes $p$ of Euler's totient function $\phi(n)$ and the sum-of-proper-divisors function $s(n):=\sigma(n)-n$. We prove that the values $\phi(n)$, for $n\le x$, that are coprime to $p$…

We prove a new mean value theorem on the distribution of primes in two simultaneous arithmetic progressions. Our approach builds on previous arguments of Bombieri, Fouvry, Friedlander, and Iwaniec appealing to spectral theory of Kloosterman…
