چکیده
Let F q be the finite field of q elements with characteristic p and F q m its extension of degree m. Fix a nontrivial additive character ψ of F p. For any Laurent polynomial −1 n ], we form the exponential sum S * m (f) := The corresponding L-function L * (f, t) is defined by L * (f, t) := exp (∞ ∑ m=0 S * m (f) t m m). The corresponding L-function L(f, t) is defined as follows L(f, t) := exp (∞ ∑ m=0 S m (f) t m m). A fundamental and important problem in number theory is to understand the sequence S * m (f) and S m (f) (1 ≤ m ≤ ∞) of algebraic integers, each of them lying in the p-th cyclotomic field Q(ζ p), where ζ p means a fixed primitive p-th root of unity in the complex numbers. The well-known Dwork-Grothendieck theorem tells us that the L-functions L * (f, t) and L(f, t) are rational functions. Write L * (f, t) = ∏ d1 i=1 (1 − α i t) ∏ d2 j=1 (1 − β j t) and L(f, t) = ∏ d3 i=1 (1 − γ i t) ∏ d4 j=1 (1 − δ j t) , 1

VARIATION OF p -ADIC NEWTON POLYGONS FOR L-FUNCTIONS OF EXPONENTIAL SUMS
Abstract. In this paper, we continue to develop the systematic decomposition theory [18] for the generic Newton polygon attached to a family of zeta functions over finite fields and more generally a family of L-functions of n-dimensional exponential sums over finite fields. Our aim is to establish a new collapsing decomposition theorem (Theorem 3.7) for the generic Newton polygon. A number of a...
متن کاملT-adic Exponential Sums over Finite Fields
T -adic exponential sums associated to a Laurent polynomial f are introduced. They interpolate all classical p-power order exponential sums associated to f . The Hodge bound for the Newton polygon of L-functions of T -adic exponential sums is established. This bound enables us to determine, for all m, the Newton polygons of Lfunctions of p-power order exponential sums associated to an f which i...
متن کاملp-adic unit roots of L-functions over finite fields
In this brief note, we consider p-adic unit roots or poles of L-functions of exponential sums defined over finite fields. In particular, we look at the number of unit roots or poles, and a congruence relation on the units. This raises a question in arithmetic mirror symmetry.
متن کاملExponential sums of nonlinear congruential pseudorandom number generators with Rédei functions
The nonlinear congruential method is an attractive alternative to the classical linear congruential method for pseudorandom number generation. We give new bounds of exponential sums with sequences of iterations of Rédei functions over prime finite fields, which are much stronger than bounds known for general nonlinear congruential pseudorandom number generators. © 2007 Elsevier Inc.

متن کاملOn divisibility of exponential sums of polynomials of special type over fields of characteristic 2
We study divisibility by eight of exponential sums of several classes of functions over finite fields of characteristic two. For the binary classical Kloosterman sums K(a) over such fields we give a simple recurrent algorithm for finding the largest k, such that 2 divides the Kloosterman sum K(a). This gives a simple description of zeros of such Kloosterman sums.
متن کاملThe Sliding-sum Method for Short Exponential Sums
We introduce a method to estimate sums of oscillating functions on finite abelian groups over intervals or (generalized) arithmetic progressions, when the size of the interval is such that the completing techniques of Fourier analysis are barely insufficient to obtain non-trivial results. In particular, we prove various estimates for exponential sums over intervals in finite fields and related ...
