Incomplete higher-order Gauss sums

A Note on Higher Order Gauss Maps

We study Gauss maps of order k, associated to a projective variety X embedded in projective space via a line bundle L. We show that if X is a smooth, complete complex variety and L is a k-jet spanned line bundle on X , with k > 1, then the Gauss map of order k has finite fibers, unless X = Pn is embedded by the Veronese embedding of order k. In the case where X is a toric variety, we give a com...

Higher Order variance and Gauss Jacobi Quadrature

In this report, we study in a detailed way higher order variances and quadrature Gauss Jacobi. Recall that the variance of order j measures the concentration of a probability close to j points x j,s with weight λ j,s which are determined by the parameters of the quadrature Gauss Jacobi. We shall study many example in which these measures specify adequately the distribution of probabilities. We ...

On the Higher Power Sums of Reciprocal Higher-Order Sequences

Let {u(n)} be a higher-order linear recursive sequence. In this paper, we use the properties of error estimation and the analytic method to study the reciprocal sums of higher power of higher-order sequences. Then we establish several new and interesting identities relating to the infinite and finite sums.

On Gauss-Jacobi sums

In this paper, we introduce a kind of character sum which simultaneously generalizes the classical Gauss and Jacobi sums, and show that this “Gauss-Jacobi sum” also specializes to the Kloosterman sum in a particular case. Using the connection to the Kloosterman sums, we obtain in some special cases the upper bound (the “Weil bound”) of the absolute values of the Gauss-Jacobi sums. We also discu...
