Zeros of linear combinations of Dirichlet $L$-functions on the critical line

Number Theory 2023-12-01 v2

Abstract

Let FF be a linear combination of N1N\geq 1 Dirichlet LL-functions attached to even (or odd) primitive characters with the same modulus. Selberg proved that a positive proportion of non-trivial zeros of FF lie on the critical line. Our work here is to provide an explicit lower bound for this proportion. In particular, we show that the lower bound 2.16×106/(NlogN)2.16\times 10^{-6}/(N\log N) is admissible for large NN.
