Given $c,$ a positive integer, we give an explicit formula and an asymptotic formula for \[ \sum\chi(c)|L(1,\,\chi)|^{2}, \] where $\chi$ is the non-trivial Dirichlet character mod $f$ with $f>c.$

Let $\chi$ a primitive character$\pmod q$ and consider the Dirichlet $L$-function $$L(s,\chi)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\chi(n)}{n^s}.$$ We give a new proof of an upper bound of Heath-Brown for $|L(s,\chi)|$ on the critical line $s=1/2+it$

Let $A(1,m)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form $\pi_1$ and $\lambda(m)$ be those of a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke holomorphic or Hecke-Mass cusp form $\pi_2$. Let $H\subset[\![…

We study the $2k$-th moment at the central point of the family of symmetric square $L$-functions attached to holomorphic Hecke cusp forms of level one, weight $\kappa$. We establish sharp lower bounds for all real $k \geq 1/2$…

Fix an integer $\kappa\geqslant 2$. Let $P$ be prime and let $k> \kappa$ be an even integer. For $f$ a holomorphic cusp form of weight $k$ and full level and $g$ a primitive holomorphic cusp form of weight $2 \kappa$ and level $P$, we prove…

In this paper, we consider the (partial) symmetric square $L$-function $L^S(s,\pi,Sym^2\otimes\chi)$ of an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation $\pi$ of $\GL_r(\A)$ twisted by a Hecke character $\chi$. In particular, we will show…

We define L-functions for meromorphic modular forms that are regular at cusps, and use them to: (i) find new relationships between Hurwitz class numbers and traces of singular moduli, (ii) establish predictions from the physics of…

In this paper, we focus on the strong subconvexity bounds for triple product L-functions in the cubic level aspect. Our proof on the Weyl-type bound synthesizes techniques from classical analytic number theory with methods in automorphic…

We prove a subconvexity bound for the central value L(1/2, chi) of a Dirichlet L-function of a character chi to a prime power modulus q=p^n of the form L(1/2, chi)\ll p^r * q^(theta+epsilon) with a fixed r and theta\approx 0.1645 < 1/6,…

Let $F$ denote a number field and let $\mathfrak{q}\subset O_F$ traverse a sequence of prime ideals with norm $N(\mathfrak{q}) \to \infty$ and for each $\mathfrak{q}$, let $\chi \in \widehat{F^{\times}\setminus \mathbb{A}^\times}$ be a…

We prove a Weyl-exponent subconvex bound for any Dirichlet $L$-function of cube-free conductor. We also show a bound of the same strength for certain $L$-functions of self-dual $\mathrm{GL}_2$ automorphic forms that arise as twists of forms…

Let $M$ be a square-free integer and let $P$ be a prime not dividing $M$ such that $P \sim M^\eta$ with $0<\eta<2/21$. We prove subconvexity bounds for $L(\tfrac{1}{2}, f \otimes g)$ when $f$ and $g$ are two primitive holomorphic cusp forms…

Let $E/F$ be a CM extension of number fields, and let $H < G$ be a unitary Gan--Gross--Prasad pair defined with respect to $E/F$ that is compact at infinity. We consider a family $\mathcal{F}$ of automorphic representations of $G \times H$…

We prove a lower bound of the correct order of magnitude in the conductor aspect for small rational moments of Drichlet $L$-functions. Such bounds require new techniques, which is visible from the relationship to non-vanishing results for…

Assuming GRH and the Ramanujan-Petersson conjecture we prove explicit bounds for $L(1,f)$ for a large class of $L$-functions $L(s,f)$, which includes $L$-functions attached to automorphic cuspidal forms on $GL(n)$. The proof generalizes…

We prove that given a Hecke-Maass form $f$ for $\text{SL}(2, \mathbb{Z})$ and a sufficiently large prime $q$, there exists a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ of conductor $q$ such that the $L$-values $L(\tfrac{1}{2}, f \otimes \chi)$…
