Jacobsthal}, with whom this whole theory started [J. Reine Angew. Math. 132, 238-245 (1907)] introduced and evaluated \\(\\phi_ 2(a)\\) in order to give explicit values for x and y in \\(p=x^ 2+y^ 2\\), \\(p\\equiv 1 (mod 4)\\). More precisely: \\(\\phi_ 2(a)=\\pm 2 (2/p) a_ 4\\) if \\((a/p)=1\\) and \\(\\phi_ 2(a)=\\pm 2 | b_ 4|\\) if \\((a/p)=-1\\). Here \\(a_ 4\\) and \\(b_ 4\\) are integers with \\(a_ 4^ 2+b_ 4^ 2=p\\), \\(a_ 4\\equiv -(2/p) (mod 4)\\). In the case \\((a/p)=1\\) we have the \\(+\\) sign if and only if a is also a quartic residue mod p.    The sums \\(\\phi_ n(a)\\) with \\(n=2,3,4,6,10\\) and 12 have been extensively studied in recent years, in particular by \\textit{B. C. Berndt} and the present author in a long paper entitled ''Sums of Gauss, Jacobi, and Jacobsthal'' [J. Number Theory 11, 349-398 (1979; Zbl 0412.10027)]. In the formulae in the latter paper there occur sign ambiguities similar to the one in the case \\(n=2\\), \\((a/p)=-1\\). The present paper removes these sign ambiguities by deriving for those \\(\\phi_ n(a)\\) whose sign is not yet determined, certain congruences. E.g., for \\(n=2\\), \\((a/p)=-1\\) one has \\(\\phi_ 2(-a)\\equiv 2 a_ 4 a^ f (mod p),\\) where f is given by \\(p=2nf+1\\). This removes the sign ambiguity since \\(\\phi_ n(a)\\) and \\(\\phi_ n(-a)\\) are connected by the relation \\(\\phi_ n(a)=\\phi_ n(-a) (-1)^{fn+f}.\\)    Every proof is linked up with the proof of the corresponding theorem in the 1979-paper of which it resolves the sign ambiguity. For the cases \\(n=2,3\\) and 4 other authors have given results of a similar kind but the present attack by way of Jacobi sums is new and works for all mentioned values of n.","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q788760$AA72CEE1-FC87-458E-A570-D53956E7B68A","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"c3c9277fbe5307a20b8489a5d855d248450d486a","datavalue":{"value":"11L03","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q788760$AB5D6A27-CDB8-46D7-9E8E-488FBC263264","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"c492c33a398b91283faf8465d60c39fbfaa632c7","datavalue":{"value":"11L10","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q788760$EC80C82E-79AE-45F0-BF56-21E7C0238F8D","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"0614cfe757af775354cacad4d1852bd334b9e455","datavalue":{"value":"11A15","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q788760$01493AE3-93AE-4996-AE31-D549C1AF392C","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"e041002167adf94abc98f4373b27fb8ca51e7a3c","datavalue":{"value":"3843843","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q788760$D3C37FF8-4B64-4B0C-B4B6-D5C4DF168588","rank":"normal"}],"P1450":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"1ece3f1f5e6d6b739b6702e7ada4e45520c87680","datavalue":{"value":"sign
