In this paper an explicit formula is given for a sequence of numbers. The positivity of this sequence of numbers implies that zeros in the critical strip of the Euler product of Hecke polynomials, which are associated with the space of cusp…
We study, on average over f, zeros of the L-functions of primitive weight two forms of level q (fixed). We prove, on the one hand, density theorems for the zeros (similar to the results of Bombieri, Jutila, Motohashi, Selberg in the case of…
Let K be a number field containing the n-th roots of unity for some n > 2. We prove a uniform subconvexity result for a family of double Dirichlet series built out of central values of Hecke L-functions of n-th order characters of K. The…
We obtain a lower bound on the number of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field which vanish at the central point $s = 1/2$. This is in contrast with the situation over the rational numbers, where a conjecture of…
In this paper, we characterize the vanishing of twisted central $L$-values attached to newforms of square-free level in terms of so-called local polynomials and the action of finitely many Hecke operators thereon. Such polynomials are the…
In this paper, we generalize a work of Rohrlich. Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $\phi$ be a Hecke character of $K$ of infinite type (1,0) whose restriction to $\mathbb{Q}$ is the quadratic character corresponding to…
Let M be an imaginary quadratic field, f a Hecke eigenform on GL2(Q) and \pi the unitary base-change to M of the automorphic representation associated to f. Take a unitary arithmetic Hecke character \chi of M inducing the inverse of the…
In this paper, we study the non-vanishing of the central values of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function of two ad\`elic Hilbert primitive forms ${\bf f}$ and ${\bf g}$, both of which have varying weight parameter $k$. We prove that, for…
We establish an asymptotic formula for the first moment and derive an upper bound for the second moment of L-functions associated with the complete family of primitive cubic Dirichlet characters defined over the Eisenstein field. Our…
We use a relative trace formula on GL(2) to compute a sum of twisted modular L-functions anywhere in the critical strip, weighted by a Fourier coefficient and a Hecke eigenvalue. When the weight k or level N is sufficiently large, the sum…
Let pi be an automorphic representation on GL(r, A_Q) for r=1, 2, or 3. Let d be a fundamental discriminant and chi_d the corresponding quadratic Dirichlet character. We consider the question of the least d, relative to the data (level,…
Let $S_k$ be the space of holomorphic cusp forms of weight $k$ with respect to $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $f \in S_k$ be a normalized Hecke eigenform, $L_f(s)$ the $L$-function attached to the form $f$. In this paper we consider the…
We prove a new upper bound for the $L^4$-norm of a holomorphic Hecke newform of large fixed weight and prime level $q\to \infty$. This is achieved by proving a sharp mean value estimate for a related $L$-function on GL(6)
Let $f,g,h$ be three normalized cusp newforms of weight $2k$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ which are eigenforms of Hecke operators. We use Ichino's period formula combined with a relative trace formula to show exact averages of $L(3k-1,f\times g\times…
In this work, we establish a zero density result for the Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions. As an application, we apply it to distinguish the holomorphic Hecke eigenforms for $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}).$
We study the one-level density of zeros for a family of $\Gamma_1(q)$ $L$-functions. Assuming GRH, we are able to extend the support of the Fourier transform of the test function to $\left(-\frac{8}{3},\frac{8}{3}\right)$ and verify the…
In a previous article we had proved an algebraicity result for the central critical value for L-functions for GL(n) x GL(n-1) over Q assuming the validity of a nonvanishing hypothesis involving archimedean integrals. The purpose of this…
We prove a Weyl-type subconvexity bound for the central value of the $L$-function of a Hecke-Maass form or a holomorphic Hecke eigenform twisted by a quadratic Dirichlet character, uniform in the archimedean parameter as well as the…
Let $\pi$ be an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation of a quasi-split unitary group ${\rm U}_{\mathfrak n}$ defined over a number field $F$. Under the assumption that $\pi$ has a generic global Arthur parameter, we establish the…
The standard twist $F(s,\alpha)$ of $L$-functions $F(s)$ in the Selberg class has several interesting properties and plays a central role in the Selberg class theory. It is therefore natural to study its finer analytic properties, for…
