Abstract: Bounds for maxm,ildem subject to m,ildeminmathbbZcap[1,p), p prime, z indivisible by p, and m belonging to some fixed Beatty sequence are obtained, assuming certain conditions on alpha. The proof uses a method due to Banks and Shparlinski. As an intermediate step, bounds for the discrete periodic autocorrelation of the finite sequence 0,,operatornameep(yoverline1),operatornameep(yoverline2),ldots,operatornameep(y(overlinep1)) on average are obtained, where operatornameep(t)=exp(2piit/p) and . The latter is accomplished by adapting a method due to Kloosterman.
