We prove that when Hodge theory survives on non-compact symplectic manifolds, a compact symplectic Lie group action having fixed points is necessarily Hamiltonian, provided the associated almost complex structure preserves the space of…

In our earlier paper, based on a paper by Bump and Ginzburg, we used an Eisenstein series on the double cover of GL(r) to obtain an integral representation of the twisted symmetric square L-function of GL(r). Using that, we showed that the…

We prove an algebraicity result for the central critical value of certain Rankin-Selberg L-functions for GL(n) x GL(n-1). This is a generalization and refinement of some results of Harder, Kazhdan-Mazur-Schmidt, Mahnkopf, and…

The theme of this work is the study of the Nekov\'a\v{r}-Selmer group H^1_f(K,T) attached to a twisted Hida family T of Galois representations and a quadratic number field K. The results that we obtain have the following shape: if a twisted…

Let $L(s,f)$ be the $L$-function associated with a newform $f$ of even weight $k$, squarefree level $N$ and trivial nebentypus. In this paper, we establish a new explicit zero-free region for $L(s,f)$. More precisely, we prove that $L(s,f)$…

We study critical points of holomorphic sections of $\ocal(m)$ on $\CP^n$. For quadrics, we give a complete discription of their critical points. When $n=1$, we prove a spherical Gauss-Lucas theorem. For general situation, we prove that a…

In this paper, we prove that if the area functional of a surface $\Sigma^2$ in a symplectic manifold $(M^{2n},\bar{\omega})$ has a critical point or has a compatible stable point in the same cohomology class, then it must be…

Let $f$ be a normalized Hecke-Maass cusp form of weight zero for the group $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$. This article presents several quantitative results about the distribution of Hecke eigenvalues of $f$. Applications to the $\Omega_{\pm}$-results…

Let $\lambda_{\phi}(n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke holomorphic or Hecke--Maass cusp form on ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies two mild hypotheses. We establish a non-trivial upper…

The purpose of this paper is to prove the long awaited holomorphy of the third symmetric power L-functions attached to nonmonomial cusp forms of GL_2 over an arbitrary number field on the whole complex plane.

We compute asymptotic formulae for the mollified first and second moments for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions in the function field setting. As an application, we obtain non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the…

Fix $g$ a self-dual Hecke-Maass form for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $f$ be a holomorphic newform of prime level $q$ and fixed weight. Conditional on a lower bound for a short sum of squares of Fourier coefficients of $f$, we prove a…

We give a geometric criterion for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to cyclic characters over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ to vanish at the central point $s=1/2$. The idea is based on the observation that vanishing at the…

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…

We prove the nonvanishing of the twisted central critical values of a class of automorphic $L$-functions for twists by all but finitely many unitary characters in particular infinite families. While this paper focuses on $L$-functions…

We employ a regularized relative trace formula to establish a second moment estimate for twisted $L$-functions across all aspects over a number field. Our results yield hybrid subconvex bounds for both Hecke $L$-functions and twisted…
