We prove an upper bound on the density of zeros very close to the critical line of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of modulus $q$ at height $T$. To do this, we derive an asymptotic for the twisted second moment of Dirichlet…

In a recent work arXiv:2004.14450, it has been shown that $L$-functions associated with arbitrary non-zero cusp forms take large values at the central critical point. The goal of this note is to derive analogous results for twists of…

Let $F$ be a number field. Let $\pi_1,\pi_2$ be cuspidal automorphic representations of $GL_2(\mathbb{A}_F)$, and let $\pi$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of either $GL_2(\mathbb{A}_F)$ or $GL_3(\mathbb{A}_F)$. When…

We develop a new criterion to tell if a group $G$ has the maximal gap of $1/2$ in stable commutator length (scl). For amalgamated free products $G = A \star_C B$ we show that every element $g$ in the commutator subgroup of $G$ which does…

Let $f$ be a Maass cusp form for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with Laplace eigenvalue $1/4+\mu_f^2$, $\mu_f>0$. Let $g$ be an arbitrary but fixed holomorphic or Maass cusp form for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. In this paper, we establish the following…

The purpose of this semi-expository article is to give another proof of a classical theorem of Shimura on the critical values of the standard L-function attached to a Hilbert modular form. Our proof is along the lines of previous work of…

Let $K$ be a quadratic number field and $\zeta_K(s)$ be the associated Dedekind zeta-function. We show that there are infinitely many normalized gaps between consecutive zeros of $\zeta_K(s)$ on the critical line which are greater than…

In this paper we prove a conjecture of Ginzburg and Soudry on an integral representation for the $L$-function $L^S(s, \pi\times \tau)$ attached to a pair $(\pi, \tau)$ of irreducible automorphic cuspidal representations of…

Let $f$ be a Maass form for $SL(3, \mathbb{Z})$ which is fixed and $u_j$ be an orthonormal basis of even Maass forms for $SL(2, \mathbb{Z}),$ we prove an asymptotic formula for the average of the product of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function…

In this paper, some asymptotic formulas are proved for the harmonic mollified second moment of a family of Rankin-Selberg L-functions. One of the main new input is a substantial improvement of the admissible length of the mollifier which is…

Let $F$ be a linear combination of $N\geq 1$ Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to even (or odd) primitive characters with the same modulus. Selberg proved that a positive proportion of non-trivial zeros of $F$ lie on the critical line. Our…

Let $f$ and $g$ be holomorphic or Maass cusp forms for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with normalized Fourier coefficients $\lambda_f(n)$ and $\lambda_g(n)$, respectively. In this paper, we prove nontrivial estimates for the sum $$…

We improve a result of Lau and Zhao on the variance of Fourier coefficients of primitive cuspidal modular forms for SL2(Z) in arithmetic progressions. This is achieved by using bounds on the first moment of Rankin-Selberg L-functions in the…

We consider the Rankin-Selberg L-functions associated with a fixed modular form of full level and holomorphic cuspidal newforms of large even weight, fixed level and fixed primitive nebentypus. We compute the second moment of this family in…

A natural construction of the logarithmic extension of the M(2,p) minimal models is presented, which generalises our previous model [0708.0802] of percolation (p=3). Its key aspect is the replacement of the minimal model irreducible modules…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and a pair correlation conjecture for the zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we establish the truth of a conjecture of Montgomery (in its corrected form stated by Friedlander and Granville) on the…

Let $\mathbb{A}$ be the adele ring of a totally real algebraic number field $F$. We push forward an explicit computation of a relative trace formula for periods of automorphic forms along a split torus in $GL(2)$ from a square free level…

We compute asymptotic formulae for the mollified first and second moments for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions in the function field setting. As an application, we obtain non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for all moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1,\chi)$ modulo $p$ when averaged over a subgroup of characters $\chi$ of size $(p-1)/d$ with $\varphi(d)=o(\log p)$. Assuming the infinitude of Mersenne primes,…

We make explicit a result of Selberg on the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over non-principal characters modulo a prime $q$. As a corollary, we show for all sufficiently large prime $q$ that the height of the lowest…
