Suppose that 2d-2 tangent lines to the rational normal curve z\mapsto (1 : z : ... : z^d) in d-dimensional complex projective space are given. It was known that the number of codimension 2 subspaces intersecting all these lines is always…

We study the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of all even primitive characters of conductor at most $Q$, where $Q$ is a parameter tending to $\infty$. For an arbitrary positive integer $k$, we approximate the twisted $2k$th moment of this…

We prove a functional limit theorem in a space of analytic functions for the random Dirichlet series $D(\alpha;z)=\sum_{n\geq 2}(\log n)^{\alpha}(\eta_n+{\rm i} \theta_n)/n^z$, properly scaled and normalized, where…

We consider computing the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ and Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s,\chi)$ to $p$-bit accuracy for large $p$. Using the approximate functional equation together with asymptotically fast computation of the incomplete…

While the distribution of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function constitutes a central theme in Mathematics, nothing is known about the algebraic nature of these non-trivial zeros. In this article, we study the transcendental…

We prove special cases of the Ratios Conjecture for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over function fields. More specifically, we study the average of $L(1/2+\alpha,\chi_D)/L(1/2+\beta,\chi_D)$, when $D$ varies over monic,…

Reed in 1998 conjectured that every graph $G$ satisfies $\chi(G) \leq \lceil \frac{\Delta(G)+1+\omega(G)}{2} \rceil$. As a partial result, he proved the existence of $\varepsilon > 0$ for which every graph $G$ satisfies $\chi(G) \leq \lceil…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize our earlier work on the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function to linear combinations of logarithms of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions with constant real coefficients. Under the assumption of…

For a rational valued periodic function, we associate a Dirichlet series and provide a new necessary and sufficient condition for the vanishing of this Dirichlet series specialized at positive integers. This question was initiated by…

De Bruijn and Newman introduced a deformation of the completed Riemann zeta function $\zeta$, and proved there is a real constant $\Lambda$ which encodes the movement of the nontrivial zeros of $\zeta$ under the deformation. The Riemann…

We computationally verify that if $L(s,\chi)$ is a quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function modulo $q \leq 10^{10}$ then $L(\sigma,\chi) \neq 0$ for real $\sigma \ge 1-1/(5\log q)$. The number of verified moduli exceeds benchmarks due to Watkins…

There exist small perturbations of L-functions, satisfying the appropriate functional equation, for which the analogue of the Riemann hypothesis fails radically. Moreover, this phenomenon is generic. However, there also exist small…

The aim of this paper is to provide an analogue of the Ball-Rivoal theorem for $p$-adic $L$-values of Dirichlet characters. More precisely, we prove for a Dirichlet character $\chi$ and a number field $K$ the formula…

A proof for the original Riemann hypothesis is proposed based on the infinite Hadamard product representation for the Riemann zeta function and later generalized to Dirichlet L-functions. The extension of the hypothesis to other functions…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to a non-principal primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ defined modulo $q$, where $q\ge 3$. We prove, under the assumption of the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, the validity of…

Improving and extending recent results of the author, we conditionally estimate exponential sums with Dirichlet coefficients of L-functions, both over all integers and over all primes in an interval. In particular, we establish new…

We establish a smoothed asymptotic formula for the third moment of quadratic {D}irichlet $L$-functions at the central value. In addition to the main term, which is known, we prove the existence of a secondary term of size $x^{\frac{3}{4}}$.…

We study the conditional upper bounds and extreme values of derivatives of the Riemann zeta function and Dirichlet $L$-functions near the 1-line. Let $\ell$ be a fixed natural number. We show that, if $|\sigma-1|\ll1/\log_2t$, then…
