Sums of two squares and a power

open access: yes, 2016
We extend results of Jagy and Kaplansky and the present authors and show that for all $k\geq 3$ there are infinitely many positive integers $n$, which cannot be written as $x^2+y^2+z^k=n$ for positive integers $x,y,z$, where for $k\not\equiv 0 \bmod 4$ a

On Waring's problem: some consequences of Golubeva's method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate sums of mixed powers involving two squares, two cubes, and various higher powers, concentrating on situations inaccessible to the Hardy-Littlewood ...

On the Waring–Goldbach problem for seventh and higher powers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We apply recent progress on Vinogradov's mean value theorem to improve bounds for the function $H(k)$ in the Waring-Goldbach problem. We obtain new results for all exponents $k \ge 7$, and in particular establish that for large $k$ one has \[H(k)\le (4k ...

On Waring's problem for intermediate powers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Let $G(k)$ denote the least number $s$ such that every sufficiently large natural number is the sum of at most $s$ positive integral $k$th powers. We show that $G(7)\le 31$, $G(8)\le 39$, $G(9)\le 47$, $G(10)\le 55$, $G(11)\le 63$, $G(12)\le 72$, $G(13 ...

On the Waring problem for polynomial rings

open access: yes, 2011
In this note we discuss an analog of the classical Waring problem for C[x_0, x_1,...,x_n]. Namely, we show that a general homogeneous polynomial p \in C[x_0,x_1,...,x_n] of degree divisible by k\ge 2 can be represented as a sum of at most k^n k-th powers

Sums of three cubes, II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Estimates are provided for $s$th moments of cubic smooth Weyl sums, when $4\le s\le 8$, by enhancing the author's iterative method that delivers estimates beyond classical convexity.

Sums of four prime cubes in short intervals

open access: yes, 2018
We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{3}+p_{2}^{3}+p_{3}^{3}+p_{4}^{3}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the the ones previously known ...

Sum of one prime and two squares of primes in short intervals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we prove that the interval $[N, N + H]$ contains an integer which is a sum of a prime and two squares of primes provided that $H \ge C (\log N)^{4}$, where $C > 0$ is an effective constant.Comment: removed unconditional ...

Almost all primes have a multiple of small Hamming weight

open access: yes, 2016
Recent results of Bourgain and Shparlinski imply that for almost all primes $p$ there is a multiple $mp$ that can be written in binary as $mp= 1+2^{m_1}+ \cdots +2^{m_k}, \quad 1\leq m_1 < \cdots < m_k,$ with $k=66$ or $k=16$, respectively. We show that $

Relations between exceptional sets for additive problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We describe a method for bounding the set of exceptional integers not represented by a given additive form in terms of the exceptional set corresponding to a subform. Illustrating our ideas with examples stemming from Waring's problem for cubes, we show,
