Abstract: We prove a quantitative Halász theorem for multiplicative functions on the nonzero ideals of $\mathbb{Z}[i]$, with bounds controlled by pretentious distance to the Archimedean characters $N^{it}$. We also prove a sectorial analogue: under angular non-pretentiousness, the sum of $f$ over ideals lying in a fixed sector is asymptotically given by the expected proportion of the unrestricted sum. Finally, under angular non-pretentiousness and a non-degeneracy condition on conjugate prime pairs, we prove a sectorial short-interval version of the Halász theorem for annular sectors whose radial thickness tends to infinity. The proof of the sectorial short-interval Halász theorem uses angular Fourier expansion, norm-compression to multiplicative functions on $\mathbb{N}$, and a theorem of Mangerel.
