Abstract:  
  In the course of proving infinitely many primes of the form x^2 + p^2, Fouvry and Iwaniec used the parametrization (dating back to Gauss) of roots of v^2 = -1 (mod m) by representations of m = a^2 + b^2 to derive a large sieve inequality for these roots. In this talk I will explain an attempt to replicate these results for roots of v^3 = 2 (mod m).
