We prove a mean value formula for weak solutions of $div(|y|^{a}\grad u)=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}=\{(x,y): x\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, y\in\mathbb{R}\}$, $-1<a<1$ and balls centered at points of the form $(x,0)$. We obtain an explicit nonlocal…

We compute the fourth moment of Dirichlet L-functions at the central point for prime moduli, with a power savings in the error term.

While several instances of shifted convolution problems for GL(3) x GL(2) have been solved, the case where one factor is the classical divisor function and one factor is a GL(3) Fourier coefficient has remained open. We solve this case in…

The class of Dirichlet series associated with a periodic arithmetical function $f$ includes the Riemann zeta-function as well as Dirichlet $L$-functions to residue class characters. We study the value-distribution of these Dirichlet series…

We evaluate the first moment of the family of primitive quadratic Hecke $L$-functions in the Gaussian field using the method of double Dirichlet series under the Riemann hypothesis and the Lindel\"of hypothesis. We obtain asymptotic…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the mean-square average of $L$- functions associated to subgroups of characters of sufficiently large size. Our proof relies on the study of certain character sums ${\cal A}(p,d)$ recently introduced by E.…

A well known result of Iwaniec and Sarnak states that for at least one third of the primitive Dirichlet characters to a large modulus q, the associated L-functions do not vanish at the central point. When q is a large power of a fixed…

We obtain a formula for the $p$-adic valuation of weighted moments of central $L$-values of holomorphic cusp forms twisted by Dirichlet characters of order $p$. In some cases we give an arithmetic interpretation of the constants in the…

The Postnikov character formula is used to express large portions of a Dirichlet character sum in terms of quadratic exponential sums. The quadratic sums are then computed using an analytic algorithm previously derived by the author. This…

In this paper, we prove a large sieve inequality for quartic Dirichlet characters. The result is analogous to large sieve inequalities for the quadratic and cubic Dirichlet characters.

We establish an asymptotic formula with a power-saving error term for the twisted mixed moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions and automorphic $L$-functions twisted by all primitive characters modulo $q$, valid for all admissible moduli. As a…

We investigate the distribution of values of cubic Dirichlet $L$-functions at $s=1$. Following ideas of Granville and Soundararajan for quadratic $L$-functions, we model the distribution of $L(1,\chi)$ by the distribution of random Euler…

We use the $q$-analogue of van der Corput's method to estimate short character sums to smooth moduli. If $\chi$ is a primitive Dirichlet character modulo a squarefree, $q^\delta$-smooth integer $q$ we show that $$L(\frac12,\chi)\ll_\epsilon…

In this paper, we study moments of central values of cubic Hecke $L$-functions in $\mathbb{Q}(i)$, and establish quantitative non-vanishing result for those values.

We consider the multiple Dirichlet series associated to the $k$th moment of real Dirichlet $L$-functions, and prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to a specific region in $\mathbb{C}^{k+1}$, which is conditional under the…

In this paper, we study the $k$-th moment of central values of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions of moduli $8p$, with $p$ ranging over odd primes. Assuming the truth of the generlized Riemann hypothesis, we establish sharp…

In this work, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the twisted mean square of a Dirichlet $L$-function with a longer mollifier, whose coefficients are also more general than before. As an application we obtain that, for every Dirichlet…

In this paper we consider the distribution of large central values of Dirichlet L-functions over cosets of the group of characters modulo q via Soundararajan's resonator method.

We study sums of Dirichlet characters over polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ with a prescribed number of irreducible factors. Our main results are explicit formulae for these sums in terms of zeros of Dirichlet L-functions. We also exhibit…
