Let $\psi$ be a real primitive character modulo $D$. If the $L$-function $L(s,\psi)$ has a real zero close to $s=1$, known as a Landau-Siegel zero, then we say the character $\psi$ is exceptional. Under the hypothesis that such exceptional…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the imaginary parts of zeros near the real axis of Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to the quadratic characters $\chi_{p}(\cdot)=(\cdot |p)$ with $p$ a prime number. Assuming the…

In this paper, we prove hybrid subconvexity bounds for $\rm GL_2\times \rm GL_2$ Rankin--Selberg $L$-functions twisted by a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo a prime power, in the $t$ and depth aspects.

For $\chi_k$ a self$-$dual primitive Dirichlet character mod $k$ several reduced identities of Dirichlet $L-$functions $L_k(s):=L(s,\chi_k)$, expressed as linear combinations of Hurwitz $\zeta$ functions, are found for $s=2,3$ and some…

We introduce a family of L-series specialising to both L-series associated to certain Dirichlet characters over F_q[T] and to integral values of Carlitz-Goss zeta function associated to F_q[T]. We prove, with the use of the theory of…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be a number field of degree $n$. We show that if $\operatorname{Reg}(E)\ll_n |\operatorname{Disc}(E)|^{1/4}$ then the fraction of class group characters for which the Hecke $L$-function does not vanish at the central…

The family of symmetric powers of an $L$-function associated with an elliptic curve with complex multiplication has received much attention from algebraic, automorphic and p-adic points of view. Here we examine one explicit such family from…

Let $f$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$ and $\chi$ a primitive Dirichlet character of prime power conductor $\mathfrak{q}=p^{\kappa}$ with $p$ prime and $\kappa\geq 10$. We prove a subconvexity bound $$…

This is the first part of a series of papers where the behaviour of the invariants under twist by Dirichlet characters is studied for $L$-functions of degree 2. Here we show, under suitable conditions, that degree and internal shift remain…

We evaluate the first three moments of central values of a family of qudratic Hecke $L$-functions in the Gaussian field with power saving error terms. In particular, we obtain asymptotic formulas for the first two moments with error terms…

We introduce an infinite family of approximations for a Dirichlet $L$-function $L(s, \chi)$ arising from truncated Euler products. These approximations are entire functions and satisfy the same functional equation as $L(s, \chi)$. We…

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…

We give a new proof of Heath-Brown's full asymptotic expansion for the second moment of Dirichlet L-functions and we obtain a corresponding asymptotic expansion for a twisted first moment of Hecke-Maass L-functions.

We study the double character sum $\sum\limits_{\substack{m\leq X,\\m\odd}}\sum\limits_{\substack{n\leq Y,\\n\odd}}\leg mn$ and its smoothly weighted counterpart. An asymptotic formula with power saving error term was obtained by Conrey,…

We show that for a positive proportion of real primitive Dirichlet characters chi, the associated Dirichlet L-function L(s,chi) has no zeros on the positive real axis. Prior to this it was not known whether or not there were infinitely many…

Let $S_k$ denote the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ and level one. For $0\leq t\leq k-2$ and primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ mod $D$, we introduce twisted periods $r_{t,\chi}$ on $S_k$. We show that for a fixed natural number $n$,…
