Let $S_x(t)=\sum_{n\le x} a_n e(nt)$, where $e(x)=e^{2\pi i x}$. Then, the large sieve inequality tells us that $$ \sum_{q\le Q} \sum_{\substack{0\lt a \lt q \\ (a,q)=1}}|S_x(a/q)|^2 \le (Q^2+4\pi x)\...

Let $S(\alpha) = \sum_{n\leq N}f(n) e^{2\pi i \alpha n}$ for some arithmetic function $f$. Suppose $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_R$ are real numbers that are $\delta$-spaced modulo $1$, for some $0 < \...

Let $S(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{N-1} a_n e^{2 \pi i n x}$ be a trigonometric polynomial of length $N$. The analytic/harmonic large sieve inequality in its sharpest form states that $$ \sum_{r=1}^R |S(x_r)|^2 ...
