First moment of central values of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions

Number Theory 2024-08-27 v4

Abstract

We evaluate the first moment of central values of the family of quadratic Dirichlet LL-functions using the method of double Dirichlet series. Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we prove an asymptotic formula with an error term of size that is the fourth root of that of the primary main term.
