Gauss sum over imaginary quadratic field

Define the Gauss sum $$ G\left( \frac{a}{m}\right) = \sum_{n(\text{mod}\ m)} e\left( \frac{a n^2}{m}\right) ,$$ then I know the following result: For any $a,m$ with $(2a,m) = 1$, $$ G\left( \frac{a}{...

Number theoretic partial differential equation

Consider the equation $$t\frac{\partial^2}{\partial t^2} \sum_{n=1}^\infty \Phi_n(x,t)=-x\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\sum_{n=1}^\infty \Phi_n(x,t)+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}\Lambda(n)\Phi_n(x,t)$$ where $\...

Proof of Dirichlet's Theorem on Primes using $\sum_{\substack{p=1\\ p\equiv h\bmod k}}^\infty\frac{\ln p}{p^s}\sim\frac{1}{\varphi(k)(s-1)}$

In my analytic number theory course, my we just finished proving Dirichlet's Theorem using primes in progression using the method's found in Apostol's Introduction to Analytic Number Theory. My ...

Selberg's Trace Formula for Hecke Eigenvalues

I am looking for a reference (if one exists) for an application of Selberg's trace formula after the Hecke operators have been applied. Perhaps to give some context and notation to this, so my ...

"p-adic completion" of rational function field

Let $q$ be a prime power, $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field of order $q$ and let $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ be the field of rational functions over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Similarly to $\mathbb{Q}$, the absolute values ...

Are there any results in the literature involving square-free factorizations of the integers?

For positive integers $n\in\mathbb{N}^*$, the radical of $n$ is defined as $\text{rad}(n):=\prod_{p\vert n}p$ where the product extends over the prime divisors of $n$. It can also be thought of as the ...

Unit square integral $\int_{0}^{1} \int_{0}^{1} \left( - \frac{\ln(xy)}{1-xy} \right)^{m} dx dy $

In an article by Guillera and Sondow, one of the unit square integral identities that is proved (on p. 9) is: $$\int_{0}^{1} \int_{0}^{1} \frac{\left(-\ln(xy) \right)^{s}}{1-xy} dx dy = \Gamma(s+2) \...

Is there a general relationship between definite integrals over functions involving the complete elliptic integral of the first kind and zeta values?

Background Let $\textbf{K}(k)$ be the complete elliptic integral of the first kind, where $k$ is its elliptic modulus [1]. Moreover, define $k' := \sqrt{1-k^{2}} $ as its complementary modulus. I've ...

Where can I learn to develop Effective Versions of Asymptotic Theorems?

There are many 'effective' versions of asymptotic theorems. This paper describes an effective version of a theorem as 'an asymptotic with an explicit error term, which holds for x larger than an ...

Generalization of Distribution of Smooth Integers to Algebraic Number Fields

A $n$-smooth (rational) integer is a positive integer with prime factors all less than or equal to $n$. We can define $\Psi (a,n)$ as the number of $n$-smooth integers less than or equal to $a$. It is ...

A reference for $\displaystyle \sum_{n\leq X}\mu^2(n)= \frac{X}{\zeta(2)}+O(\sqrt{X}\exp(-c\sqrt{\log X}))$

There is this result of counting the number of square-free numbers until $X$, which goes like this: $$\sum_{n\leq X}\mu^2(n)= \frac{X}{\zeta(2)}+O(\sqrt{X}\exp(-c\sqrt{\log X})).$$ Could someone ...
