Character-sum conjecture for the extended-support problem

Let P1P\geq 1, let kPk\leq P be a nonsquare, so that the character (k)\left(\frac{k}{\cdot}\right) is nonprincipal, and set H=P2/3+δH=P^{2/3+\delta}. Let e(x)=exp(2πix)e(x)=\exp(2\pi i x) and let p\overline p denote the inverse of pp in the modulus k2k^2. Character-sum conjecture. There exist δ>0\delta>0 and ε>0\varepsilon>0 such that

hHpP(kp)e(h3pk2)P13δ/2ε.\sum_{h\leq H}\sum_{p\leq P}\left(\frac{k}{p}\right)e\left(\frac{h^3\overline p}{k^2}\right)\ll P^{1-3\delta/2-\varepsilon}.

Such cancellation would support extending the one-level density beyond the currently available Fourier-transform support and is proposed as evidence for orthogonal symmetry in the family of all elliptic curves; its resolution is not supplied here.
