Burgess proved that for $\chi_q$ a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ with $q$ cubefree, $\Big|\sum_{M< n\le M+N}\chi_q(n)\Big| \ll N^{1-\frac{1}{r}}q^{\frac{r+1}{4r^2}+\epsilon}$ for all integers $r\ge1.$ More recently, explicit…
We study the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus and establish sharp upper bounds for all real $k \in [0,2]$.
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…
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 find an explicit upper bound for general $L$-functions on the critical line, assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, and give as illustrative examples its application to some families of $L$-functions and Dedekind zeta functions.…
For an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, its kernel is defined as $\text{ker }\chi=\{g\in G: \chi(g)=\chi(1)\}$. In this paper we characterize the finite groups of prime power order(for odd prime) in which kernels of all…
We show that the slopes of the~$U_5$ operator acting on slopes of 5-adic overconvergent modular forms of weight~$k$ with primitive Dirichlet character~$\chi$ of conductor~25 are given by either \[…
We improve on previous upper bounds for the $q$th norm of the partial sums of the Riemann zeta function on the half line when $0<q\leqslant 1$. In particular, we show that the 1-norm is bounded above by $(\log N)^{1/4}(\log\log N)^{1/4}$.
We establish an upper bound on the multiplicity of eigenvalues of the Sch\"odinger-Dirichlet operator in dimension two. We give a proof based on a generalized Morse Lemma due to Cheng \cite{Ch}.
Let $f$ be a real-valued $1$-bounded multiplicative function. Suppose that the mean-value of $f^{2}$ exists, and $$\int_{0}^{1} \Big | \sum_{n \leq N} f(n)e^{2\pi i n \alpha} \Big | d \alpha\leq N^{o(1)}$$ as $N \rightarrow \infty$, then…
We introduce the discrete poly-Laplace operator on a subgraph with Dirichlet boundary condition. We obtain upper and lower bounds for the sum of the first $k$ Dirichlet eigenvalues of the poly-Laplace operators on a finite subgraph of…
Let $M(\chi)$ denote the maximum of $|\sum_{n\le N}\chi(n)|$ for a given non-principal Dirichlet character $\chi \pmod q$, and let $N_\chi$ denote a point at which the maximum is attained. In this article we study the distribution of…
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 study the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of all even primitive characters of conductor at most $Q$, where $Q$ is a parameter tending to $\infty$. For an arbitrary positive integer $k$, we approximate the twisted $2k$th moment of this…
A classical result of Paley shows that there are infinitely many quadratic characters $\chi\mod{q}$ whose character sums get as large as $\sqrt{q}\log \log q$; this implies that a conditional upper bound of Montgomery and Vaughan cannot be…
We prove the irrationality of the classical Dirichlet L-value $L(2,\chi_{-3})$. The argument applies a new kind of arithmetic holonomy bound to a well-known construction of Zagier. In fact our work also establishes the $\mathbf{Q}$-linear…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, it is known that at least half of the central values $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi)$ are non-vanishing as $\chi$ ranges over primitive characters modulo $q$. Unconditionally, this is known on average over…
We investigate the mean value of the first moment of primitive quartic $L$-functions over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ in the non-Kummer setting. Specifically, we study the sum \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{\chi\ primitive\ quartic\\ \chi^2…
Let $f$ be a primitive cusp form of weight $k$ and level $N,$ let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character of conductor coprime with $N,$ and let $\mathfrak{L}(f\otimes \chi, s)$ denote either $\log L(f\otimes \chi, s)$ or $(L'/L)(f\otimes \chi,…
We study the limit of first eigenfunctions of (discrete) $p$-Laplacian on a finite subset of a graph with Dirichlet boundary condition, as $p\to 1.$ We prove that up to a subsequence, they converge to a summation of characteristic functions…
