We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.
We prove an upper bound on the density of zeros very close to the critical line of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of modulus $q$ at height $T$. To do this, we derive an asymptotic for the twisted second moment of Dirichlet…
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…
Let $F$ be a linear combination of $N\geq 1$ Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to even (or odd) primitive characters with the same modulus. Selberg proved that a positive proportion of non-trivial zeros of $F$ lie on the critical line. Our…
This paper improves the upper bound for the exceptional zeroes of Dirichlet L-functions with even characters. The result is obtained by improving on explicit estimate for $L'(\sigma;\chi)$ for $\sigma$ close to unity, using a result on the…
We prove several results on the distribution of values of $L$-functions at the edge of the critical strip, by constructing and studying a large class of random Euler products. Among new applications, we study families of symmetric power…
In 2011, Gun, Murty and Rath studied non-vanishing and transcendental nature of special values of a varying class of $L$-functions and their derivatives. This led to a number of works by several authors in different set-ups including…
We show that the existence of arithmetic progressions with few primes, with a quantitative bound on "few", implies the existence of larger gaps between primes less than x than is currently known unconditionally. In particular, we derive…
We study the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus and establish sharp upper bounds for all real $k \in [0,2]$.
We continue our examination the effects of certain hypothetical configurations of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions lying off the critical line ("barriers") on the relative magnitude of the functions $\pi_{q,a}(x)$. Here $\pi_{q,a}(x)$ is…
Given a non-principal Dirichlet character chi mod q, an important problem in number theory is to obtain good estimates for the size of L(1,chi). In this paper we focus on sharpening the upper bounds known for |L(1,chi)|; in particular, we…
We prove a lower bound of the correct order of magnitude in the conductor aspect for small rational moments of Drichlet $L$-functions. Such bounds require new techniques, which is visible from the relationship to non-vanishing results for…
The aim of this paper is to improve the upper bound for the exceptional zeroes $\beta_0$ of Dirichlet $L$-functions. We do this by improving on explicit estimate for $L'(\sigma, \chi)$ for $\sigma$ close to unity.
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain an upper bound for the moments of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. Our bound is nearly as sharp as the conjectured asymptotic formulae for these moments. The method extends to moments…
We exhibit large values of the Dedekind zeta function of a cyclotomic field on the critical line. This implies a dichotomy whereby one either has improved lower bounds for the maximum of the Riemann zeta function, or large values of…
We settle the issue of well-posedness for the Dirichlet problem for a higher order elliptic system ${\mathcal L}(x,D_x)$ with complex-valued, bounded, measurable coefficients in a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$, with boundary data in Besov…
We study the 2k-th power moment of Dirichlet L-functions L(s,\chi) at the centre of the critical strip (s=1/2), where the average is over all primitive characters \chi (mod q). We extend to this case the hybrid Euler-Hadamard product…
We use the Asymptotic Large Sieve and Levinson's method to obtain lower bounds for the proportion of simple zeros on the critical line of the twists by primitive Dirichlet characters of a fixed L-function of degree 1,2, or 3.
We establish sharp lower bounds for the $k$-th moment in the range $0 \leq k \leq 1$ of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point.
Let $\pi$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of a general linear group over the rational numbers. We establish a subconvex bound for the standard $L$-function of $\pi$ in the $t$-aspect. More generally, we address the spectral aspect…
