We evaluate the twisted first moment of central values of the family of primitive quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions using the method of double Dirichlet series together with a recursive argument. Our main result is an asymptotic formula…

In this paper we give an explicit formula for the twisted Alexander polynomial of any torus link and show that it is a locally constant function on the $SL(2, \mathbb C)$-character variety. We also discuss similar things for the higher…

Let $m\ge 1$ be a rational integer. We give an explicit formula for the mean value $$\frac{2}{\phi(f)}\sum_{\chi (-1)=(-1)^m}\vert L(m,\chi )\vert^2,$$ where $\chi$ ranges over the $\phi (f)/2$ Dirichlet characters modulo $f>2$ with the…

We consider heuristic predictions for small non-zero algebraic central values of twists of the $L$-function of an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ by Dirichlet characters. We provide computational evidence for these predictions and…

In this paper, we prove $p$-stability results for the critical L-values of algebraic Hecke characters over CM fields in $\ell$-adic anticyclotomic twist family with $\ell\neq p$.

The author reviews results and conjectures of Selberg on a class of Dirichlet series functions which share properties with the Riemann zeta function, and he relates this work to the theory of Artin L-functions.

In the present paper, we study large values of Dirichlet $L$- functions inside the critical strip. For every $1/2<\sigma<1$, we show that for $q$ sufficiently large, there exists a non-principal character $\chi$ modulo $q$ and a constant…

Let $f$ and $g$ be two holomorphic or Hecke-Maass primitive cusp forms for $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ and $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character of modulus $p$, an odd prime. A subconvex bound for the central values of the Rankin-Selberg…

We define a Euler characteristic $\chi(X,G)$ for a finite cell complex $X$ with a finite group $G$ acting cellularly on it. Then, each $K_{i}(X)$ (a complex vector space with basis the $i$-cells of $X$) is a representation of $G$, and we…

We re-write the character formul{\ae} of Adler and the second-named author in a form amenable to explicit computations in $p$-adic harmonic analysis, and use them to prove the stability of character sums for a modification of Reeder's…

We show that for a positive proportion of real primitive Dirichlet characters chi, the associated Dirichlet L-function L(s,chi) has no zeros on the positive real axis. Prior to this it was not known whether or not there were infinitely many…

We consider Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ where $\chi$ is a non-principal quadratic character to the modulus $q$. We make explicit a result due to Pintz and Stephens by showing that $|L(1, \chi)|\leq \frac{1}{2}\log q$ for all $q\geq…

We obtain a formula for the $p$-adic valuation of weighted moments of central $L$-values of holomorphic cusp forms twisted by Dirichlet characters of order $p$. In some cases we give an arithmetic interpretation of the constants in the…

The Dirichlet series associated to the eta-product $\eta(7\tau)^7/\eta(\tau)$ decomposes uniquely into the difference of two L-functions with Euler products. This expression gives a new proof of the positivity of the Fourier coefficients of…

For a fairly general family of L-functions, we survey the known consequences of the existence of asymptotic formulas with power-sawing error term for the (twisted) first and second moments of the central values in the family. We then…

We prove strong estimates for averages of shifted convolution sums consisting of quadratic twists of $\mathrm{GL}_{2}$ $L$-functions. The key input involves the circle method together with standard tools such as Vorono\u{\i}, quadratic…

We prove a formula, with power savings, for the sixth moment of Dirichlet L-functions averaged over moduli $q$, over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$, and over the critical line. Our formula agrees precisely with predictions motivated…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the eighth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$, over all moduli $q\leq Q$ and with a short average on the critical line. Previously the same result was…

We conjecture that the logarithm of the absolute value of the constant in the functional equation of the Hasse-Weil L-function of a variety X over Z is equal to a certain Arakelov de Rham Euler characteristic of X. This generalizes the fact…

Let $L(s, \chi_1), \ldots, L(s, \chi_N)$ be primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions different from the Riemann zeta function. Under suitable hypotheses we prove that any linear combination $a_1\log|L(\rho,\chi_1)|+\dots+a_N\log|L(\rho,\chi_N)|$…
