Estimates for smooth Weyl sums on major arcs
Joerg Bruedern, Trevor D. Wooley
We present estimates for smooth Weyl sums of use on sets of major arcs in applications of the Hardy-Littlewood method. In particular, we derive mean value estimates on major arcs f…

Partitio Numerorum: sums of squares and higher powers
Joerg Bruedern, Trevor D. Wooley
We survey the potential for progress in additive number theory arising from recent advances concerning major arc bounds associated with mean value estimates for smooth Weyl sums. W…

Common divisors of totients of polynomial sequences
J. Brüdern, K. Soundararajan
Motivated by a question of Venkataramana, we consider the greatest common divisor of where is a primitive polynomial with integer coefficients, and ranges over al…
