We study the low-lying zeros of L-functions attached to quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve E defined over $\mathbb Q$. We are primarily interested in the family of all twists coprime to the conductor of E and compute a very precise…
Let $K=\Bbb Q(\sqrt{-q})$, where $q$ is a prime congruent to $3$ modulo $4$. Let $A=A(q)$ denote the Gross curve. Let $E=A^{(-\beta)}$ denote its quadratic twist, with $\beta=\sqrt{-q}$. The curve $E$ is defined over the Hilbert class field…
Let $(\pi,\sigma)$ traverse a sequence of pairs of cuspidal automorphic representations of a unitary Gan--Gross--Prasad pair $({\rm U}_{n+1},{\rm U}_n)$ over a number field, with ${\rm U}_n$ anisotropic. We assume that at some distinguished…
We consider the sharp Sobolev-Poincar\'e constant for the embedding of $W^{1,2}_0(\Omega)$ into $L^q(\Omega)$. We show that such a constant exhibits an unexpected dual variational formulation, in the range $1<q<2$. Namely, this can be…
For $ E\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$, let $\Delta(E)$ denote the distance set determined by pairs of points in $E$. By using additive energies of sets on a paraboloid, Koh, Pham, Shen, and Vinh (2020) proved that if $E,F\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d $…
We study the signs of the Fourier coefficients of a newform. Let $f$ be a normalized newform of weight $k$ for $\Gamma_0(N)$. Let $a_f(n)$ be the $n$th Fourier coefficient of $f$. For any fixed positive integer $m$, we study the…
The paper deals with a third order semilinear equation which char- acterizes exponentially shaped Josephson junctions in superconductivity. The initial-boundary problem with Dirichlet conditions is analyzed. When the source term F is a…
In this paper, we prove that if the Fourier coefficients of a $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke--Maa\ss\ cusp form $\pi$ are not too correlated with additive characters, then there exists infinitely many Dirichlet characters such that…
We show that Tim Cochran's invariants $\beta^i(L)$ of a $2$-component link $L$ in the $3$--sphere can be computed as intersection invariants of certain 2-complexes in the $4$--ball with boundary $L$. These 2-complexes are special types of…
Let $f$ be a normalized newform of weight 2 on $\Gamma_0(N)$ whose coefficients lie in $\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\chi_M$ be a primitive quadratic Dirichlet character with conductor $M$. In this paper, under mild assumptions on $M$, we give a…
The textbook adversary bound for function evaluation states that to evaluate a function $f\colon D\to C$ with success probability $\frac{1}{2}+\delta$ in the quantum query model, one needs at least $\left( 2\delta -\sqrt{1-4\delta^2}…
We investigate the distribution of values of cubic Dirichlet $L$-functions at $s=1$. Following ideas of Granville and Soundararajan for quadratic $L$-functions, we model the distribution of $L(1,\chi)$ by the distribution of random Euler…
Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be, as usual, Chebyshev's prime-counting function for the primes of the arithmetic progression $a$ (mod $q$) with $(a,q)=1$. For…
Let $\pi$ be a unitary cuspidal automorphic representation of $\text{GL}_{4}(\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$. Let $f \geq 1$ be given. We show that there exists infinitely many primitive even (resp. odd) Dirichlet characters $\chi$ with conductor…
Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character of conductor $q$ and let us denote by $L(z, \chi)$ the associated $L$-series. In this paper, we provide an explicit upper bound for $\left|L(1, \chi)\right|$ when $\chi$ is a primitive even…
We compute an asymptotic formula for the twisted moment of GL(3)xGL(2) L-functions and their derivatives. As an application we prove that symmetric-square lifts of GL(2) Maass forms are uniquely determined by the central values of the…
In this paper we find a new lower bound on the number of imaginary quadratic extensions of the function field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(x)$ whose class groups have elements of a fixed odd order. More precisely, for $q$, a power of an odd prime, and…
We prove a new formula for the central value of the $L$-function $L(E_{D, \alpha}, 1)$ corresponding to the family of sextic twists over $\mathbb{Q}[\sqrt{-3}]$ of elliptic curves $E_{D, \alpha}: y^2=x^3+16D^2\alpha^3$ for $D$ an integer…
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 $p$ be an odd prime, and suppose $f$ is an $L^2$-normalised newform for $\Gamma_0(p^n)$ with bounded spectral parameters and trivial central character. We prove the optimal $L^4$-norm bound $\lVert f \rVert_4…
