Higher Dimensional Dedekind Sums
In this paper we will study the number-theoretical properties of the expression v1 nkal rcka,, d(p; a I . . . . . an) = ( 1) n/2 ~ cot cot (1) k=l P P and of related finite trigonometric sums. In Eq. (I), p is a positive integer, a~ . . . . . a, are integers prime to p, and n is even (for n odd the sum is clearly equal to zero). There are two reasons for being interested in sums of this type. F...
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'...
متن کاملHIGHER-DIMENSIONAL DEDEKIND SUMS AND THEIR BOUNDS ARISING FROM THE DISCRETE DIAGONAL OF THE n-CUBE
We define a combinatorial game in R from which we derive numerous new inequalities between higher-dimensional Dedekind sums. Our approach is motivated by a recent article by Dilcher and Girstmair, who gave a nice probabilistic interpretation for the classical Dedekind sum. Here we introduce a game analogous to Dilcher and Girstmair’s model in higher dimensions.

متن کاملBounds of Gauss Sums in Finite Fields
We consider Gauss sums of the form Gn(a) = ∑ x∈Fpm χ(x) with a nontrivial additive character χ 6= χ0 of a finite field Fpm of pm elements of characteristic p. The classical bound |Gn(a)| ≤ (n−1)pm/2 becomes trivial for n ≥ pm/2 + 1. We show that, combining some recent bounds of HeathBrown and Konyagin with several bounds due to Deligne, Katz, and Li, one can obtain the bound on |Gn(a)| which is...
