In this paper, we study the distance problem in the setting of finite p-adic rings. In odd dimensions, our results are essentially sharp. In even dimensions, we clarify the conjecture and provide examples to support it. Surprisingly,…
We study the fluctuations of ergodic sums using global and local specifications on periodic points. We obtain Lindeberg-type central limit theorems in both situations. As an application, when the system possesses a unique measure of maximal…
We introduce a reduction from the distinct distances problem in ${\mathbb R}^d$ to an incidence problem with $(d-1)$-flats in ${\mathbb R}^{2d-1}$. Deriving the conjectured bound for this incidence problem (the bound predicted by the…
This is an expository account of the proof of the theorem of Bourgain, Glibichuk and Konyagin which provides non-trivial bounds for exponential sums over very small multiplicative subgroups of prime finite fields.
Sequence transformations are valuable numerical tools that have been used with considerable success for the acceleration of convergence and the summation of diverging series. However, our understanding of their theoretical properties is far…
We prove a new upper bound for the number of incidences between points and lines in a plane over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$, a problem first considered by Bourgain, Katz and Tao. Specifically, we show that $m$ points and $n$ lines in…
We give a new bound on the number of collinear triples for two arbitrary subsets of a finite field. This improves on existing results which rely on the Cauchy inequality. We then us this to provide a new bound on trilinear and quadrilinear…
Motivated by applications in robotics and computer vision, we study problems related to spatial reasoning of a 3D environment using sublevel sets of polynomials. These include: tightly containing a cloud of points (e.g., representing an…
We present a polynomial partitioning theorem for finite sets of points in the real locus of an irreducible complex algebraic variety of codimension at most two. This result generalizes the polynomial partitioning theorem on the Euclidean…
We estimate short exponential sums weighted by the Fourier coefficients of a Maass form. This requires working out a certain transformation formula for non-linear exponential sums, which is of independent interest. We also discuss how the…
Given two points $p,q$ in the real plane, the signed area of the rectangle with the diagonal $[pq]$ equals the square of the Minkowski distance between the points $p,q$. We prove that $N>1$ points in the Minkowski plane $\R^{1,1}$ generate…
We define finite field $A$-hypergeometric functions and show that they are Fourier expansions of families of exponential sums on the torus. For an appropriate choice of $A$, our finite field $A$-hypergeometric function can be specialized to…
This article establishes a real-variable argument for Zygmund's theorem on almost everywhere convergence of strong arithmetic means of partial sums of Fourier series on $\mathbb{T}$, up to passing to a subsequence. Our approach extends to,…
We prove an exponential integral estimate for the quadratic partial sums of multiple Fourier series on large sets that implies some new properties of Fourier series.
We extend the sum-of-divisors function to the complex plane via the Gaussian integers. Then we prove a modified form of Euler's classification of odd perfect numbers.
We prove sharp estimates for incidences involving planar tubes that satisfy packing conditions. We apply them to improve the estimates for the Fourier transform of fractal measures supported on planar curves.
Vector calculus in three-dimensional space is ubiquitous in applications of mathematics in physics and engineering. Its two-dimensional version is, however, quite rare. Here we try to provide a pedagogical account of the subject. It is…
As a generalization of the Fourier transform, the fractional Fourier transform was introduced and has been further investigated both in theory and in applications of signal processing. We obtain a sampling theorem on shift-invariant spaces…
In this paper, we prove an extension theorem for spheres of square radii in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$, which improves a result obtained by Iosevich and Koh (2010). Our main tool is a new point-hyperplane incidence bound which will be derived via a…
We establish nontrivial bounds for general bilinear forms with a given periodic function, which are thought of as an analogue of van der Corput differencing for exponential sums. The proof employs Poisson summation, Cauchy-Schwarz, and the…
