The second moment of quadratic twists of modular $L$-functions

Abstract

We study the second moment of the central values of quadratic twists of a modular LL-function. Unconditionally, we obtain a lower bound which matches the conjectured asymptotic formula, while on GRH we prove the asymptotic formula itself.
