Finding the mean square averages of the Dirichlet $L$-functions over Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of same parity is an active problem in number theory. Here we explicitly evaluate such averages of $L(3,\chi)$ and $L(4,\chi)$ using certain…

We establish an analogue of a conjecture of Balasubramanian, Conrey, and Heath-Brown for the family of all Dirichlet characters with conductor up to $Q$. This forms another application of our work in developing an asymptotic large sieve.

We study the first moment of primitive quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis and the generalized Lindel\"of hypothesis, we obtain an asymptotic formula at the central point with error $O(X^{1/4+\epsilon})$, and…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to a non-principal primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ defined modulo $q$, where $q\ge 3$. We prove, under the assumption of the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, the validity of…

Improving and extending recent results of the author, we conditionally estimate exponential sums with Dirichlet coefficients of L-functions, both over all integers and over all primes in an interval. In particular, we establish new…

This paper studies the first moment of symmetric-square $L$-functions at the critical point in the weight aspect. Asymptotics with the best known error term $O(k^{-1/2})$ were obtained independently by Fomenko in 2005 and by Sun in 2013. We…

This is a sequel to our previous articles \cite{Kw23, Kw23a+}. In this work, we apply recent techniques that fall under the banner of `Period Reciprocity' to study moments of $GL(3)\times GL(2)$ $L$-functions in the non-archimedean aspects,…
