We obtain the asymptotic formulae |B & V| =( |B|รp)+O(-|B| log 2 p) for the number of solutions of the congruence x 1 x 2 #x 3 x 4 (mod p) in a box B of arbitrary size and position, and N(B)=(12ร? 2 ) B 2 log B+CB 2 +O(B 19ร13 log 7ร13 B), with C given explicitly, for the number of solutions of the
In two previous papers [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 117 (1993), 877-884], [J. Numher Theory 44 (1993), 214-221], a reciprocity relation for the power residue symbol of odd prime exponent, between Jacobi sums, was conjectured then proved. This is here extended to the case of an arbitrary exponent, as a co
