Hermite Character Sums
This evaluation proves a conjecture in [9, p. 370] and solves the problem of finding explicitly the number of rational points (mod/?) on the surface z = (x + l)(y + ΐ)(x + y), a problem some algebraic geometers had worked on without success. Character sum analogues of the important formulas for orthogonal polynomials are potentially as useful as those for hypergeometric series, so a systematic ...
متن کاملLarge Character Sums
where χ is a non-principal Dirichlet character χ (mod q). It is easy to show that such character sums are always ≤ q in absolute value, while G. Pólya and I.M. Vinogradov (see [3]) improved this to≤ √q log q around 1919, and H.L. Montgomery and R.C. Vaughan [13] to √q log log q in 1977, assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). Up to the constant this is “best possible” since R.E.A.C. ...
متن کاملNotes on Character Sums
In this article, the properties of character sums, including Gauss sums and Jacobi sums are investigated.
متن کاملLinear Codes and Character Sums
Let V be an rn-dimensional linear subspace of Zn 2 . Suppose the smallest Hamming weight of non-zero vectors in V is d. (In coding-theoretic terminology, V is a linear code of length n, rate r and distance d.) We settle two extremal problems on such spaces. First we prove a (weak form) of a conjecture by Kalai and Linial and show that the fraction of vectors in V with weight d is exponentially ...
متن کاملCharacter Sums in Finite Fields
Let F q be a finite field of order q with q = p n , where p is a prime. A multiplicative character χ is a homomorphism from the multiplicative group F * q , ·· to the unit circle. In this note we will mostly give a survey of work on bounds for the character sum x χ(x) over a subset of F q. In Section 5 we give a nontrivial estimate of character sums over subspaces of finite fields. §1. Burgess'...
