    There is a body of work in the literature on various restricted sums of the number of divisors of an integer function including that described in [2-9, 11] and summarised in Section 2 below

    Continuous functions with universally divergent Fourier series on small subsets of the circle

    It is shown that quasi all continuous functions on the unit circle have the property that, for many small subsets E of the circle, the partial sums of their Fourier series considered as functions restricted to E exhibit certain universality properties.Comment: 6 page

    Extension theorems for the Fourier transform associated with non-degenerate quadratic surfaces in vector spaces over finite fields

    We study the restriction of the Fourier transform to quadratic surfaces in vector spaces over finite fields. In two dimensions, we obtain the sharp result by considering the sums of arbitrary two elements in the subset of quadratic surfaces on two dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. For higher dimensions, we estimate the decay of the Fourier transform of the characteristic functions on quadratic surfaces so that we obtain the Tomas-Stein exponent. Using incidence theorems, we also study the extension theorems in the restricted settings to sizes of sets in quadratic surfaces. Estimates for Gauss and Kloosterman sums and their variants play an important role.Comment: 18 pages, 4 figure
