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 $\chi$ be a real non-principal character modulo a prime $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the corresponding $L$-function. We prove that for any real number $s\geq 1$ there holds $$ -\frac{L'(s,\chi )}{L(s,\chi)}\leq c \log q,$$ where $c$ can be…

We propose a numerical method for approximating and discovering zeros of the Dirichlet L-function L(s, chi) corresponding to real Dirichlet characters chi.

Let E be an elliptic curve and \rho an Artin representation, both defined over the rational numbers. Let p be a prime at which E has good reduction. We prove that there exists an infinite set of Dirichlet characters \chi, ramified only at…

We prove that the Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with Dirichlet characters in $\mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ are universal. That is, given a modulus of high enough degree, $L$-functions with characters to this modulus can be found that approximate…

Let $q$ be a prime, $\chi$ be a non-principal Dirichlet character $\bmod\ q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the associated Dirichlet $L$-function. For every odd prime $q\le 10^7$, we show that $L(1,\chi_\square) > c_{1} \log q$ and $\beta < 1-…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and a pair correlation conjecture for the zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we establish the truth of a conjecture of Montgomery (in its corrected form stated by Friedlander and Granville) on the…

In this paper, we give Dirichlet series with periodic coefficients that have Riemann's functional equation and real zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions. The details are as follows. Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function and $G(\chi)$ be…

We evaluate some twisted fourth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point s=1/2 and for prime moduli q. The principal tool is a careful analysis of a shifted convolution problem involving the divisor function using spectral…

Using the mollifier method, we show that for a positive proportion of holomorphic Hecke eigenforms of level one and weight bounded by a large enough constant, the associated symmetric square $L$-function does not vanish at the central point…

This text shows the existence of large (3.54 times the average) gaps between consecutive zeros, on the critical line, of some Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s,\chi),$ with $\chi$ being an even primitive Dirichlet character.

In this paper, we use the Weyl-bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions to derive zero-density estimates for $L$-functions associated to families of fixed-order Dirichlet characters. The results improve on previous bounds given by the author when…

We study the angular restrictions for the second moment of toroidal families of $L$-functions using the general theory of trace functions. With the mollification technique we deduce non-vanishing of a positive proportion. Our two main…

In this paper we show that for every Dirichlet $L$-function $L(s,\chi)$ and every $N\geq 2$ the Dirichlet series $L(s,\chi)+L(2s,\chi)+\cdots+L(Ns,\chi)$ have infinitely many zeros for $\sigma>1$. Moreover we show that for many general…

We make explicit a result of Selberg on the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over non-principal characters modulo a prime $q$. As a corollary, we show for all sufficiently large prime $q$ that the height of the lowest…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be a fixed Dirichlet $L$-function. Given a vertical arithmetic progression of $T$ points on the line $\Re(s)=1/2$, we show that $\gg T \log T$ of them are not zeros of $L(s,\chi)$. This result provides some theoretical…

Given a Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$ and its associated $L$-function, $L(s,\chi)$, we provide an explicit version of Burgess' estimate for $|L(s, \chi)|$. We use partial summation to provide bounds along the vertical lines $\Re{s}…

We prove a result on the large deviations of the central values of even primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions with a given modulus. For $V\sim \alpha\log\log q$ with $0<\alpha<1$, we show that \begin{equation}\nonumber\frac{1}{\varphi(q)} \#…

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…
