## Dedicated to the Memory of Taruichi Yoshioka Let p 5 be a prime, 1 a set of certain positive integers, and G a cyclic group of order p&1. In this paper we mainly investigate the special subideal I 1 ( p) (depending on 1) of the Stickelberger ideal I( p) in the group ring R p =Z p [G] (where Z p

โฆ Synopsis
It is known that a system of two additive equations of degree k with greater than 4k variables has a non-trivial p-adic solution for all p>k 6 . The purpose of this paper is to improve this result to p>3k 4 . A considerable modification of the standard method of exponential sums is introduced which uses the Hasse Weil sum estimate for multiplicative characters.

with coefficients a ij # Z, has a non-trivial p-adic solution for all p>k 2r+2 .
In the case of 2 additive equations, r=2, the theorem guarantees a non-trivial solution for all p>k 6 , with n>4k variables. See also [2].
The aim of this paper is to improve the bound to p>3k 4 . The result involves a considerable modification of the standard method of exponential article no. NT972071
