We apply the calculus of variations to construct a new sequence of linear combinations of derivatives of the Riemann $\zeta$-function adapted to Levinson's method, which yield a positive proportion of zeros of the $\zeta$-function on the…

We study the relation between the size of $L(1,\chi)$ and the width of the zero-free interval to the left of that point.

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the non-trivial zeros of $L$-functions lie on the critical line with the real part $1/2$. We find an upper bound of the lowest first zero in families of even cuspidal newforms of prime level…

We study the conjecture that $\sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)=o(x)$ for any primitive Dirichlet character $\chi \pmod q$ with $x\geq q^\epsilon$, which is known to be true if the Riemann Hypothesis holds for $L(s,\chi)$. We show that it holds under…

Assuming a conjecture on distinct zeros of Dirichlet L-functions we get asymptotic results on the average number of representations of an integer as the sum of two primes in arithmetic progression. On the other hand the existence of good…

By using an analogy with the case of very close zeros symmetric with respect to the critical line of the Davenport and Heilbronn function, we study the conformal mapping of L-functions in a neighborhood of a hypothetical double zero and…

Let $L(s, \chi_1), \ldots, L(s, \chi_N)$ be primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions different from the Riemann zeta function. Under suitable hypotheses we prove that any linear combination $a_1\log|L(\rho,\chi_1)|+\dots+a_N\log|L(\rho,\chi_N)|$…

In this note we define L-functions of finite graphs and study the particular case of finite cycles in the spirit of a previous paper that studied spectral zeta functions of graphs. The main result is a suggestive equivalence between an…

We calculate the one-level density of thin subfamilies of a family of Hecke cuspforms formed by twisting the forms in a smaller family by a character. The result gives support up to 1, conditional on GRH, and we also find several of the…

We study the zeros sets of functions in the Dirichlet space. Using Carleson formula for Dirichlet integral, we obtain some new families of zero sets. We also show that any closed subset of $E \subset \TT$ with logarithmic capacity zero is…

Let $f$ be a Hecke-Maass or holomorphic primitive cusp form of arbitrary level and nebentypus, and let $\chi$ be a primitive character of conductor $M$. For the twisted $L$-function $L(s,f\otimes \chi)$ we establish the hybrid subconvex…

Let $f$ and $g$ be two holomorphic or Hecke-Maass primitive cusp forms for $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ and $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character of modulus $p$, an odd prime. A subconvex bound for the central values of the Rankin-Selberg…

We study, on average over f, zeros of the L-functions of primitive weight two forms of level q (fixed). We prove, on the one hand, density theorems for the zeros (similar to the results of Bombieri, Jutila, Motohashi, Selberg in the case of…

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…

We present an overview of bounds on zeros of $L$-functions and obtain some improvements under weak conjectures related to the Goldbach problem.

In 1970, Huxley obtained a sharp upper bound for the sixth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point, averaged over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$ and all moduli $q \leq Q$. In 2007, as an application of their…

We continue our investigations of the analytic properties of nonlinear twists of L-functions developed in [4],[5] and [7]. Given an L-function of degree d, we first extend the transformation formula in [5], relating a twist with leading…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the second moment of automorphic L-functions of even weight and prime power level. The error term is estimated uniformly in all parameters: level, weight, shift and twist.

We investigate the approximation of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over function fields by truncations of their Euler products. We first establish representations for such $L$-functions as products over prime polynomials times products…

In this paper, we study weighted low-lying zeros of spinor and standard $L$-functions attached to degree 2 Siegel modular forms. We show the symmetry type of weighted low-lying zeros of spinor $L$-functions is symplectic, for test functions…
