In 1970, Huxley obtained a sharp upper bound for the sixth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point, averaged over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$ and all moduli $q \leq Q$. In 2007, as an application of their…

We establish new estimates on short character sums for arbitrary composite moduli with small prime factors. Our main result improves on the Graham-Ringrose bound for square free moduli and also on the result due to Gallagher and Iwaniec…

Recently, the two variable $q$-$L$-functions which interpolate the generalized $q$-Bernoulli polynomials associated with $\chi$ are introduced and studied, cf. [2]. In this paper, we construct multiple Dirichlet's $q$-$L$-function which…

For any real $k\geq 2$ and large prime $q$, we prove a lower bound on the $2k$-th moment of the Dirichlet character sum \begin{equation*} \frac{1}{\phi(q)} \sum_{\substack{\chi \text{ mod }q\\ \chi\neq \chi_0}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x}…

In this paper, we compute and verify the positivity of the Li coefficients for the Dirichlet $L$-functions using an arithmetic formula established in Omar and Mazhouda, J. Number Theory 125 (2007) no.1, 50-58; J. Number Theory 130 (2010)…

We compute the second moment of the Dedekind zeta function of a quadratic field times an arbitrary Dirichlet polynomial of length $T^{1/11-\epsilon}$.

We give the converse to Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progressions by generalizing an old result of Guinand.

We establish upper bounds for moments of smoothed quadratic Dirichlet character sums under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, confirming a conjecture of M. Jutila.

We prove an asymptotic formula for the second moment of automorphic L-functions of even weight and prime power level. The error term is estimated uniformly in all parameters: level, weight, shift and twist.

We prove, assuming the generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) that there is a positive density of $L$-functions associated with primitive cubic Dirichlet characters over the Eisenstein field that do not vanish at the central point $s=1/2$.…

We derive formulas for the terms in the conjectured asymptotic expansions of the moments, at the central point, of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions, $L(1/2,\chi_d)$, and also of the $L$-functions associated to quadratic twists of an…

We conjecture a formula for the symmetric function $\frac{[n-k]_t}{[n]_t}\Delta_{h_m}\Delta_{e_{n-k}}\omega(p_n)$ in terms of decorated partially labelled square paths. This can be seen as a generalization of the square conjecture of Loehr…

We establish unconditional sharp upper bounds of the $k$-th moments of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point for $0 \leq k \leq 2$.

Mean values of Witten $L$-functions in the "character" aspect are investigated. After giving a general formula for mean values with the first and the second power, we explicitly calculate the cubic moment for $SU(2)$.

We prove a new upper bound on the second moment of Maass form symmetric square L-functions defined over Gaussian integers. Combining this estimate with the recent result of Balog-Biro-Cherubini-Laaksonen, we improve the error term in the…

We establish a smoothed asymptotic formula for the third moment of quadratic {D}irichlet $L$-functions at the central value. In addition to the main term, which is known, we prove the existence of a secondary term of size $x^{\frac{3}{4}}$.…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for all moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1,\chi)$ modulo $p$ when averaged over a subgroup of characters $\chi$ of size $(p-1)/d$ with $\varphi(d)=o(\log p)$. Assuming the infinitude of Mersenne primes,…

We evaluate asymptotically the smoothed first moment of central values of families of primitive cubic, quartic and sextic Dirichlet $L$-functions, using the method of double Dirichlet series. Quantitative non-vanishing result for these…

We prove a new mean-value theorem for Dirichlet polynomials with coefficients given by the von Mangoldt function. We then use our theorem to derive new estimates for certain exponential sums over primes. The latter have applications to…

We formulate a conjectural Lefschetz formula for locally symmetric spaces of finite volume. The formula can be verified in the compact case and for Riemann surfaces.
