Some Remarks on Vinogradov's Mean Value Theorem and Tarry's Problem.
Estimates are provided for sth moments of cubic smooth Weyl sums, when 4 ≤ s ≤ 8, by enhancing the author's iterative method that delivers estimates beyond classical convexity. As a consequence, an improved lower bound is presented for the number of integers not exceeding X that are represented as the sum of three cubes of natural numbers.
We establish the non-singular Hasse principle for pairs of diagonal quartic equations in 22 or more variables. Our methods involve the estimation of a certain entangled two-dimensional 21st moment of quartic smooth Weyl sums via a novel cubic moment of Fourier coefficients.
