Character sums over norm groups

From MaRDI portal





The author of this paper gives estimates of character sums of Weil type. These estimates are associated with polynomials and rational functions with coefficients in a quadratic extension \(k_{2}\) of a finite field \(k\) of \(q\) elements, additive and multiplicative characters of \(k_{2}\), and summed over the kernel of the norm map from \(k_{2}^{\times}\) to \(k^\times\). The bounds are of the magnitude \(O(\sqrt{q})\) with the implied constant depending on the degree of the polynomial and the total degree of the support of the rational function, similar to Weil's estimate over \(k\).
