Gauss Sums of the Cubic Character over G F ( 2 m ) : an Elementary Derivation

Davide Schipani, Michele Elia (2011)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

By an elementary approach, we derive the value of the Gauss sum of a cubic character over a finite field 2 s without using Davenport-Hasse’s theorem (namely, if s is odd the Gauss sum is -1, and if s is even its value is - ( - 2 ) s / 2 ).

A note on signs of Kloosterman sums

Kaisa Matomäki (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We prove that the sign of Kloosterman sums Kl ( 1 , 1 ; n ) changes infinitely often as n runs through the square-free numbers with at most 15 prime factors. This improves on a previous result by Sivak-Fischler who obtained 18 instead of 15. Our improvement comes from introducing an elementary inequality which gives lower and upper bounds for the dot product of two sequences whose individual distributions are known.

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, we are able to prove that almost all integers n satisfying some necessary congruence conditions are the sum of j almost equal prime cubes with j = 7, 8, i.e., [...] N=p13+…+pj3 N = p 1 3 + ... + p j 3 with [...] |pi−(N/j)1/3|≤N1/3−δ+ε(1≤i≤j), | p i - ( N / j ) 1 / 3 | N 1 / 3 - δ + ε ( 1 i j ) , for some [...] 0<δ≤190. 0 δ 1 90 . Furthermore, we give the quantitative relations between the length of short intervals and the size of exceptional sets.

On the k -polygonal numbers and the mean value of Dedekind sums

Jing Guo, Xiaoxue Li (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For any positive integer k 3 , it is easy to prove that the k -polygonal numbers are a n ( k ) = ( 2 n + n ( n - 1 ) ( k - 2 ) ) / 2 . The main purpose of this paper is, using the properties of Gauss sums and Dedekind sums, the mean square value theorem of Dirichlet L -functions and the analytic methods, to study the computational problem of one kind mean value of Dedekind sums S ( a n ( k ) a ¯ m ( k ) , p ) for k -polygonal numbers with 1 m , n p - 1 , and give an interesting computational formula for it.

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let F(X,Y) be an irreducible binary cubic form with integer coefficients and positive discriminant D. Let k be a positive integer satisfying k < ( ( 3 D ) 1 / 4 ) / 2 π . We give improved upper bounds for the number of primitive solutions of the Thue inequality | F ( X , Y ) | k .

A generalization of a theorem of Erdős-Rényi to m-fold sums and differences

Kathryn E. Hare, Shuntaro Yamagishi (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let m ≥ 2 be a positive integer. Given a set E(ω) ⊆ ℕ we define r N ( m ) ( ω ) to be the number of ways to represent N ∈ ℤ as a combination of sums and differences of m distinct elements of E(ω). In this paper, we prove the existence of a “thick” set E(ω) and a positive constant K such that r N ( m ) ( ω ) < K for all N ∈ ℤ. This is a generalization of a known theorem by Erdős and Rényi. We also apply our results to harmonic analysis, where we prove the existence of certain thin sets.

Proof of a conjectured three-valued family of Weil sums of binomials

Daniel J. Katz, Philippe Langevin (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We consider Weil sums of binomials of the form W F , d ( a ) = x F ψ ( x d - a x ) , where F is a finite field, ψ: F → ℂ is the canonical additive character, g c d ( d , | F × | ) = 1 , and a F × . If we fix F and d, and examine the values of W F , d ( a ) as a runs through F × , we always obtain at least three distinct values unless d is degenerate (a power of the characteristic of F modulo | F × | ). Choices of F and d for which we obtain only three values are quite rare and desirable in a wide variety of applications. We show that if F is a field of order 3ⁿ with n...

Some new sums related to D. H. Lehmer problem

Han Zhang, Wenpeng Zhang (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

About Lehmer’s number, many people have studied its various properties, and obtained a series of interesting results. In this paper, we consider a generalized Lehmer problem: Let p be a prime, and let N ( k ; p ) denote the number of all 1 a i p - 1 such that a 1 a 2 a k 1 mod p and 2 a i + a ¯ i + 1 , i = 1 , 2 , , k . The main purpose of this paper is using the analytic method, the estimate for character sums and trigonometric sums to study the asymptotic properties of the counting function N ( k ; p ) , and give an interesting asymptotic formula...

The mean value of |L(k,χ)|² at positive rational integers k ≥ 1

Stéphane Louboutin (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let k ≥ 1 denote any positive rational integer. We give formulae for the sums S o d d ( k , f ) = χ ( - 1 ) = - 1 | L ( k , χ ) | ² (where χ ranges over the ϕ(f)/2 odd Dirichlet characters modulo f > 2) whenever k ≥ 1 is odd, and for the sums S e v e n ( k , f ) = χ ( - 1 ) = + 1 | L ( k , χ ) | ² (where χ ranges over the ϕ(f)/2 even Dirichlet characters modulo f>2) whenever k ≥ 1 is even.

Prime numbers along Rudin–Shapiro sequences

Christian Mauduit, Joël Rivat (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

For a large class of digital functions f , we estimate the sums n x Λ ( n ) f ( n ) (and n x μ ( n ) f ( n ) , where Λ denotes the von Mangoldt function (and μ the Möbius function). We deduce from these estimates a Prime Number Theorem (and a Möbius randomness principle) for sequences of integers with digit properties including the Rudin-Shapiro sequence and some of its generalizations.

Waring's number for large subgroups of ℤ*ₚ*

Todd Cochrane, Derrick Hart, Christopher Pinner, Craig Spencer (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let p be a prime, ℤₚ be the finite field in p elements, k be a positive integer, and A be the multiplicative subgroup of nonzero kth powers in ℤₚ. The goal of this paper is to determine, for a given positive integer s, a value tₛ such that if |A| ≫ tₛ then every element of ℤₚ is a sum of s kth powers. We obtain t = p 22 / 39 + ϵ , t = p 15 / 29 + ϵ and for s ≥ 6, t = p ( 9 s + 45 ) / ( 29 s + 33 ) + ϵ . For s ≥ 24 further improvements are made, such as t 32 = p 5 / 16 + ϵ and t 128 = p 1 / 4 .

Rademacher-Carlitz polynomials

Matthias Beck, Florian Kohl (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We introduce and study the Rademacher-Carlitz polynomial R ( u , v , s , t , a , b ) : = k = s s + b - 1 u ( k a + t ) / b v k where a , b > 0 , s,t ∈ ℝ, and u and v are variables. These polynomials generalize and unify various Dedekind-like sums and polynomials; most naturally, one may view R(u,v,s,t,a,b) as a polynomial analogue (in the sense of Carlitz) of the Dedekind-Rademacher sum r t ( a , b ) : = k = 0 b - 1 ( ( ( k a + t ) / b ) ) ( ( k / b ) ) , which appears in various number-theoretic, combinatorial, geometric, and computational contexts. Our results come in three flavors: we prove a reciprocity theorem for Rademacher-Carlitz...

On the q -Pell sequences and sums of tails

Alexander E. Patkowski (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We examine the q -Pell sequences and their applications to weighted partition theorems and values of L -functions. We also put them into perspective with sums of tails. It is shown that there is a deeper structure between two-variable generalizations of Rogers-Ramanujan identities and sums of tails, by offering examples of an operator equation considered in a paper published by the present author. The paper starts with the classical example offered by Ramanujan and studied by previous...
