β¦ Synopsis
We prove, by an essentially elementary argument, that the number of nonsingular solutions of a system of d simultaneous congruences, to a prime power modulus, in d variables is at most the product of the degrees of the polynomials defining the congruences.

where S s, k (n) denotes the usual singular series in Waring's problem (see Vaughan [5, Sect. 2.6]). Then it transpires that the results of this note are required to obtain Ford's new bound G (k) (1+o(1)) k 2 log k, which improves the previous bound G (k) (2+o(1)) k 2 log k due to Wooley [6, Corollary 1.2]. Since the above result on congruences had also article no.

## Abstract In this paper we establish the (1, 2)β and (2, 1)βtransfer principles for finitely decidable locally finite varieties, where a class of structures is finitely decidable if the first order theory of its finite members is recursive. The transfer principles deal with the local structure of
