Let $\chi_D$ be the Dirichlet character associated to $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ where $D < 0$ is a fundamental discriminant. Improving Granville-Stark [DOI:10.1007/s002229900036], we show that \[ \frac{L'}{L}(1,\chi_D) = \frac{1}{6}\,…

Fix a Hecke cusp form $f$, and consider the $L$-function of $f$ twisted by a primitive Dirichlet character. As we range over all primitive characters of a large modulus $q$, what is the average behavior of the square of the central value of…

Let $\chi$ be a real primitive character to the modulus $D$. It is proved that $$ L(1,\chi)\gg (\log D)^{-2022} $$ where the implied constant is absolute and effectively computable. In the proof, the lower bound for $L(1,\chi)$ is first…

Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture allows for sharp estimates on the rank of certain abelian varieties defined over $ \Q$. in the case of the jacobian of the modular curves, this problem is equivalent to the estimation of the order of…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we show using the asymptotic large sieve that 91% of the zeros of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions are simple. This improves on earlier work of \"{O}zl\"{u}k which gives a proportion of at…
