Let $a>1$ be an integer. Denote by $l_a(n)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo integer $n\geq 1$. We prove that there is a positive constant $\delta$ such that if $x^{1-\delta}\log^3 x = o(y)$, then $$ \frac1y \sum_{a<y} \frac1x…
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…

Let $3\leqslant k\leqslant9$ be a fixed integer, $p$ be a prime and $d(n)$ denote the Dirichlet divisor function. We use $\Delta(x)$ to denote the error term in the asymptotic formula of the summatory function of $d(n)$. The aim of this…
We prove that $$ \int_1^X\Delta(x)\Delta_3(x)\,dx \ll X^{13/9}\log^{10/3}X, \quad \int_1^X\Delta(x)\Delta_4(x)\,dx \ll_\varepsilon X^{25/16+\varepsilon}, $$ where $\Delta_k(x)$ is the error term in the asymptotic formula for the summatory…
In this paper, we prove a Voronoi summation formula for the shifted 3-fold divisor function twisted by additive characters. As the main tool, we provide the functional equation for the shifted $GL(3)$ Estermann function.
The SU(3) modular invariant partition functions were first completely classified in Ref.\ \SU. The purpose of these notes is four-fold: \item{(i)} Here we accomplish the SU(3) classification using only the most basic facts: modular…
We give an algorithm for working out the indecomposable direct summands in a Krull--Schmidt decomposition of a tensor product of two simple modules for G=SL_3 in characteristics 2 and 3. It is shown that there is a finite family of modules…
In analytic number theory, the Selberg--Delange Method provides an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a complex function $f$ whose Dirichlet series has the form of a product of a well-behaved analytic function and a complex power of…
In this series we examine the calculation of the $2k$th moment and shifted moments of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line using long Dirichlet polynomials and divisor correlations. The present paper begins the general study of…
For $V\sim \alpha \log\log T$ with $0<\alpha<2$, we prove \[ \frac{1}{T}\text{meas}\{t\in [T,2T]: \log|\zeta(1/2+ {\rm i} t)|>V\}\ll \frac{1}{\sqrt{\log\log T}} e^{-V^2/\log\log T}. \] This improves prior results of Soundararajan and of…
Here, we study both analytically and numerically, an integral $Z(\sigma,r)$ related to the mean value of a generalized moment of Riemann's zeta function. Analytically, we predict finite, but discontinuous values and verify the prediction…
The modified Mellin transform ${\cal Z}_k(s) = \int_1^\infty |\zeta({1\over2}+ix|^{2k}x^{-s}{\rm d} x$ ($k\ge1$ is a fixed integer, $s = \sigma + it$) is used to obtain estimates for $$…
It is known that the Selberg zeta function for the modular group has an expression in terms of the class numbers and the fundamental units of the indefinite binary quadratic forms. In the present paper, we generalize such a expression to…
Integrals involving the kernel function $sech (\pi x)$ over a semi-infinite range are of general interest in the study of Riemann's function $\zeta(s)$ and Hurwitz' function $\zeta(s,a)$. Such integrals that include the $arctan$ and $log$…
We show that sums of the SL(3,Z) long element Kloosterman sum against a smooth weight function have cancellation due to the variation in argument of the Kloosterman sums, when each modulus is at least the square root of the other. Our main…
We show that the exponent of distribution of the ternary divisor function $d_3$ in arithmetic progressions to prime moduli is at least 1/2+1/46, improving results of Heath-Brown and Friedlander--Iwaniec. Furthermore, when averaging over a…
In 1946, A. Selberg proved $N(\sigma,T) \ll T^{1-\frac{1}{4} \left(\sigma-\frac{1}{2}\right)} \log{T}$ where $N(\sigma,T)$ is the number of nontrivial zeros $\rho$ of the Riemann zeta-function with $\Re\{\rho\}>\sigma$ and…
We establish sharp lower bounds for shifted (with two shifts) moments of Dirichlet $L$-function of fixed modulus under the generalized Riemann hypothesis.
In this paper, we demonstrate the existence of the second moment of the Selberg zeta function for a Fuchsian group of the first kind at $\sigma = 1$. The prime geodesic theorem plays a crucial role in this context. The proof extends to…
