Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first give a brief survey of Ap\'ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain $L$-functions. Then, we establish two…

We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface with exponent $\frac{2}{3}+\varepsilon$, improving upon the long-standing exponent $\frac{25}{36}+\varepsilon$ of Soundararajan-Young (2013). This was previously known…

We study averages of $L$-functions associated with Hecke-Maass cusp forms for $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$, multiplied by Dirichlet polynomials built from the Fourier coefficients of the cusp forms. To prove this, we employ a variant of the Kuznetsov…

A survey paper on some recent results on additive problems with prime powers.

We compute the moments of L-functions of symmetric powers of modular forms at the edge of the critical strip, twisted by the central value of the L-functions of modular forms. We show that, in the case of even powers, it is equivalent to…

In this paper, we completely determine the slopes and weights of the L-functions of an important class of exponential sums arising from analytic number theory. Our main tools include Adolphson-Sperber's work on toric exponential sums and…

We establish upper bounds for shifted moments of cubic and quartic Dirichlet $L$-functions under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. As an application, we prove bounds for moments of cubic and quartic Dirichlet character sums.

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,…

We establish pointwise convergence for nonconventional ergodic averages taken along $\lfloor p^c\rfloor$, where $p$ is a prime number and $c\in(1,4/3)$ on $L^r$, $r\in(1,\infty)$. In fact, we consider averages along more general sequences…

We study Whittaker coefficients for maximal parabolic Eisenstein series on metaplectic covers of split reductive groups. By the theory of Eisenstein series these coefficients have meromorphic continuation and functional equation. However…
