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 $s=1/2+it$
We prove an asymptotic formula for the second moment of automorphic L-functions of even weight and prime power level. The error term is estimated uniformly in all parameters: level, weight, shift and twist.
We evaluate the twisted first moment of central values of the product of a quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function and a quadratic twist of a modular $L$-function.
In this paper we prove a lower bound result for extremely large values of $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi_p)$ with prime numbers $p\equiv 1\pmod 8$.
We investigate the mean value of the twisted second moment of primitive cubic $L$-functions over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ in the non-Kummer setting. Specifically, we study the sum \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{\chi\ primitive\ cubic\\…
We show that for at least $\frac{5}{13}$ of the primitive Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of large prime modulus, the central value $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi)$ does not vanish, improving on the previous best known result of $\frac{3}{8}$.
Using Voronoi's truncated formula for $\Delta(x)$ involving Bessel functions, the first author derives an asymptotic formula for the eighth-power moments with an error term of order $O\left(X^{3 - \frac{1}{254} + \varepsilon}\right)$
We evaluate the smoothed first moment of central values of a family of qudratic Hecke $L$-functions in the Gaussian field using the method of double Dirichlet series. The asymptotic formula we obtain has an error term of size…
Let $\chi$ denote a primitive, non-quadratic Dirichlet character with conductor $q$, and let $L(s, \chi)$ denote its associated Dirichlet $L$-function. We show that $|L(1, \chi)| \geq 1/(9.12255 \log(q/\pi))$ for sufficiently large $q$, and…
This paper studies the first moment of symmetric-square $L$-functions at the critical point in the weight aspect. Asymptotics with the best known error term $O(k^{-1/2})$ were obtained independently by Fomenko in 2005 and by Sun in 2013. We…
In this note, we prove that given a Hecke-Maass cusp form $f$ for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and a sufficiently large integer $q=q_1q_2$ with $q_j\asymp \sqrt{q}$ being prime numbers for $j=1,2$, there exists a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$…
For any real $k\geq 2$ and large prime $q$, we prove a lower bound on the $2k$-th moment of the Dirichlet character sum \begin{equation*} \frac{1}{\phi(q)} \sum_{\substack{\chi \text{ mod }q\\ \chi\neq \chi_0}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x}…
We study the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to real primitive characters of conductor at most $X$. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we give an asymptotic expansion of this quantity in…
In this paper, we establish sharp upper bounds on shifted moments of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed modulus over function fields. We apply the result to obtain upper bounds on moments of Dirichlet character sums over…
We verify the conjecture of [CFKRS] for the mean square near the critical point of Dirichlet L-functions for a composite modulus q. We also prove a kind of reciprocity formula when the second moment for a prime modulus is twisted by a…
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 $L(\tfrac{1}{2}, f \otimes \chi)$…
In this paper, we exhibit upper and lower bounds with explicit constants for some objects related to entire $L$-functions in the critical strip, under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. The examples include the entire Dirichlet…
The main objective of this article is to compute a first moment for product of Dirichlet and twisted self-dual $GL(3)$ $L$-functions. We discuss the possible simultaneous non vanishing at the central point. We use properties of symmetric…
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.
