Mollification of the Fourth Moment of Dirichlet L-functions

Abstract

We evaluate some twisted fourth moment of Dirichlet LL-functions at the central point s=1/2 and for prime moduli q. The principal tool is a careful analysis of a shifted convolution problem involving the divisor function using spectral theory of automorphic forms and bounds for bilinear forms in Kloosterman sums. Having in mind simultaneous non vanishing results, we apply the Theorem to establish an asymptotic formula of a mollified fourth moment for this family of LL-functions
