We establish unconditional sharp upper bounds of the $k$-th moments of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point for $0 \leq k \leq 2$.
We show that there are an infinite number of Riemann zeros on the critical line, enumerated by the positive integers $n=1,2,\dotsc$, whose ordinates can be obtained as the solution of a new transcendental equation that depends only on $n$.…
We describe a new method to obtain weak subconvexity bounds for $L$-functions with mild hypotheses on the size of the Dirichlet coefficients. We verify these hypotheses for all automorphic $L$-functions and (with mild restrictions) the…
Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet L-function associated to $\chi$. Using a new two-piece mollifier we show that $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\chi)\ne0$ for at least 34% of the characters in the…
Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $q$, let $L(s, \chi)$ be the attached Dirichlet $L$-function, and let $L^\prime(s, \chi)$ denotes its derivative with respect to the complex variable $s$. The main purpose of this paper is to give…
We study the third moment of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions, obtaining an error term of size $O(X^{3/4 + \varepsilon})$.
In this paper, we obtain asymptotic formulas for weighted first moments of central values of families of primitive quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions whose conductors comprise only primes that split in a given quadratic number field. We then…
We show that the percentage of primitive forms of level one and weight $4k\rightarrow \infty$ for which the associated $L$-function at the central point is no less than $(\log{k})^{-2}$ is at least 20%. The key ingredients of our proof are…
In this paper, we establish an asymptotic formula for the twisted second moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions with one and two twists when averaged over all primitive Dirichlet characters of modulus $R$, where $R$ is a monic polynomial in…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the smoothly weighted first moment of primitive quadratic Dirichlet L-functions at the central point, with an error term that is "square-root" of the main term. Our approach uses a recursive technique…
Let C(q,+) be the set of even, primitive Dirichlet characters (mod q). Using the mollifier method we show that L^{(k)}(1/2,chi) is not equal to zero for almost all the characters chi in C(q,+) when k and q are large. Here, L^{(k)}(s,chi) is…
We evaluate the first moment of central values of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions using the method of double Dirichlet series. Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we prove an asymptotic formula with an error term of…
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…
We derive formulas for the terms in the conjectured asymptotic expansions of the moments, at the central point, of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions, $L(1/2,\chi_d)$, and also of the $L$-functions associated to quadratic twists of an…
We refine a previous work of K. Matsumoto and H. Ishikawa, obtaining an asymptotic formula for the mean square of the product of the Riemann zeta-function and a Dirichlet polynomial in the critical strip (1/4<$\sigma$<1/2), by obtaining an…
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…
Using the circle method, we obtain subconvex bounds for GL(3) L-functions twisted by a character modulo a prime p, hybrid in the t and p-aspects.
This paper systematically investigates the analytic properties of the ratio $f(s)/f(1-s) = X(s)$ based on the Davenport-Heilbronn functional equation $f(s) = X(s)f(1-s)$. We propose a novel method to analyze the distribution of non-trivial…
In this paper, we study the mean value distributions of Dirichlet $L$-functions at positive integers. We give some explicit formulas for the mean values of products of two and three Dirichlet $L$-functions at positive integers weighted by…
The finite Dirichlet series from the title are defined by the condition that they vanish at as many initial zeroes of the zeta function as possible. It turned out that such series can produce extremely good approximations to the values of…
