A problem of D. H. Lehmer and its generalization (II)
Let p be an odd prime with p ≡ 1 mod 4, k be any positive integer, ψ be any fourth-order character mod p. In this paper, we use the analytic method and the properties of character sums mod p to study the computational problem of G(k, p) = τk(ψ)+τk(ψ), and give an interesting fourth-order linear recurrence formula for it, where τ(ψ) denotes the classical Gauss sums.
The main purpose of this paper is to study the mean value properties of a sum analogous to character sums over short intervals by using the mean value theorems for the Dirichlet L-functions, and to give some interesting asymptotic formulae.
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the mean value of Dedekind sums, and give a sharper asymptotic formula.
