The geometry of the third moment of exponential sums

Florent Jouve (2008)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We give a geometric interpretation (and we deduce an explicit formula) for two types of exponential sums, one of which is the third moment of Kloosterman sums over F q of type K ( ν 2 ; q ) . We establish a connection between the sums considered and the number of F q -rational points on explicit smooth projective surfaces, one of which is a K 3 surface, whereas the other is a smooth cubic surface. As a consequence, we obtain, applying Grothendieck-Lefschetz theory, a generalized formula for the third moment of Kloosterman...

The Horrocks-Mumford bundle restricted to planes.

Ada Boralevi (2007)

Collectanea Mathematica

We study the behavior of the Horrocks-Mumford bundle FHM when restricted to a plane P2 ⊂ P4, looking for all possible minimal free resolutions for the restricted bundle. To each of the 6 resolutions (4 stable and 2 unstable) we find, we then associate a subvariety of the Grassmannian G(2,4) of planes in P4. We thus obtain a filtration of the Grassmannian, which we describe in the second part of this work.
