We study non-vanishing of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point under the unlikely assumption that there exists an exceptional Dirichlet character. In particular we prove that if $\psi$ is a real primitive character modulo $D \in…
We study the second moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a large prime modulus $q$ twisted by the square of an arbitrary Dirichlet polynomial. We break the $\frac{1}{2}$-barrier in this problem, and obtain an asymptotic formula provided…
In this paper, we study moments of the central values of quartic Dirichlet $L$-functions and establish quantitative non-vanishing result for these $L$-values.
In this article, we establish an asymptotic formula for the eighth moment of the Riemann zeta function, assuming the Riemann hypothesis and a quaternary additive divisor conjecture. This builds on the work of the first author on the sixth…
In this paper, we establish the expected order of magnitude of the $k$th-moment of central values of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus over function fields for all real $k \geq 0$.
The main purpose of this paper is to establish bounds on the second moment of $L\big(\tfrac{1}{2}+it,\chi\big)$, averaged over families of fixed order characters. A discrete version of the main result is also stated, from which zero-density…
We establish lower bounds for the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus for all real $k<0$, assuming the non-vanishing of these $L$-values.
We extend to Dirichlet L-functions associated with arbitrary primitive characters a range of objects and properties -- including Eisenstein series and period functions -- that were originally introduced and studied by Lewis and Zagier…
We study the moments of $L$-functions associated with primitive cusp forms, in the weight aspect. In particular, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the twisted moments of a \textit{long} Dirichlet polynomial with modular coefficients. This…
In this paper, we obtain asymptotic formulas for weighted first moments of central values of families of primitive quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions whose conductors comprise only primes that split in a given quadratic number field. We then…
We report on some extensive computations and experiments concerning the moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the critical point. We computed the values of $L(1/2,\chi_d)$ for $- 5\times 10^{10} < d < 1.3 \times 10^{10}$ in order…
In this paper we use techniques first introduced by Florea to improve the asymptotic formula for the first moment of the quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field, running over all monic, square-free polynomials of…
We prove the asymptotic formulae for several moments of derivatives of GL(2) L-functions over quadratic twists. The family of L-functions we consider has root number fixed to -1 and odd orthogonal symmetry. Assuming GRH we prove the…
We consider the multiple Dirichlet series associated to the $k$th moment of real Dirichlet $L$-functions, and prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to a specific region in $\mathbb{C}^{k+1}$, which is conditional under the…
In this note we investigate the behavior at the central point of the symmetric square $L$-functions, the most frequently used $\rm{GL}(3)$ $L$-functions. We establish an asymptotic formula with arbitrary power saving for the first moment of…
We evaluate asymptotically the smoothed first moment of central values of families of quadratic, cubic, quartic and sextic Hecke $L$-functions over various imaginary quadratic number fields of class number one, using the method of double…
We study the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus. We establish sharp lower bounds for all real $k \geq 0$ and sharp upper bounds for $k$ in the range $0 \leq k \leq 1$.
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we establish explicit bounds in the $q$-aspect for the logarithmic derivative $\left(L'/L\right)\left(\sigma,\chi\right)$ of Dirichlet $L$-functions, where $\chi$ is a primitive character modulo…
We prove the q-aspect analogue of Heath-Brown's result on the twelfth power moment of the Riemann zeta function for Dirichlet L-functions to odd prime power moduli. Our results rely on the p-adic method of stationary phase for sums of…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the mean-square average of $L$- functions associated to subgroups of characters of sufficiently large size. Our proof relies on the study of certain character sums ${\cal A}(p,d)$ recently introduced by E.…
