Waring's problem for fields

William Ellison (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

If K is a field, denote by P(K,k) the a ∈ K which are sums of kth powers of elements of K, by P⁺(K,k) the set of a ∈ K which are sums of kth powers of totally positive elements of K. We give some simple conditions for which there exist integers w(K,k) and g(K,k) such that: a ∈ P(K,k) implies that a is the sum of at most w(K,k) kth powers; a ∈ P⁺(K,k) implies that a is the sum of at most g(K,k) totally positive kth powers. We apply the results to characterise functions that are sums of...

The hybrid power mean of quartic Gauss sums and Kloosterman sums

Li Xiaoxue, Hu Jiayuan (2017)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

The main purpose of this paper is using the analytic method and the properties of the classical Gauss sums to study the computational problem of one kind fourth hybrid power mean of the quartic Gauss sums and Kloosterman sums, and give an exact computational formula for it.

The hybrid mean value of Dedekind sums and two-term exponential sums

Chang Leran, Li Xiaoxue (2016)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, we use the mean value theorem of Dirichlet L-functions, the properties of Gauss sums and Dedekind sums to study the hybrid mean value problem involving Dedekind sums and the two-term exponential sums, and give an interesting identity and asymptotic formula for it.

Equality of Dedekind sums modulo 8ℤ

Emmanuel Tsukerman (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Using a generalization due to Lerch [Bull. Int. Acad. François Joseph 3 (1896)] of a classical lemma of Zolotarev, employed in Zolotarev's proof of the law of quadratic reciprocity, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for the difference of two Dedekind sums to be in 8ℤ. These yield new necessary conditions for equality of two Dedekind sums. In addition, we resolve a conjecture of Girstmair [arXiv:1501.00655].
