This paper contains a small improvement to the explicit bounds on the growth of the function $S(T)$. It is shown how more substantial improvements are possible if one has better explicit bounds on the growth of $|\zeta(\frac{1}{2}+it)|$.
Let $L(s,\pi)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\lambda_{\pi}(n)n^{-s}$ be an $L$-function that satisfies a weak form of the generalized Ramanujan conjecture. We prove that large partial sums of $\lambda_{\pi}(n)$ strongly repel the low-lying zeros of…
Let $\pi$ and $\pi'$ be unitary cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}(n)$ and $\mathrm{GL}(n')$ over a number field $F$. We establish a new zero-free region for all $\mathrm{GL}(1)$-twists of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function…
It is known, that under the assumption of the generalized Riemannian hypothesis, the function $\pi(x, q, 1) - \pi(x, q, a)$ has infinitely many sign changes. In this article we give an upper bound for the least such sign change. Similarly,…
Let $\pi$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ and $f$ be a holomorphic (or Maass) Hecke form for $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. In this paper we prove the following subconvex bound $$ L\left(\tfrac{1}{2}+it,\pi\times…
We investigate the large values of the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the 1-line. We give a larger lower bound for $\max_{t\in[T,2T]}|\zeta^{(\ell)}(1+{\rm i} t)|$, which improves the previous result established by…
Let $\pi$ be a Hecke cusp form for $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{Z})$. We bound the second moment average of $L(s,\pi)$ over a short interval to obtain the subconvexity estimate $$ L(1/2+it, \pi) \ll_{\pi, \varepsilon}…
The suggested approach is based on a known representation of Dirichlet $L$-functions via the incomplete gamma functions. Some properties of the Taylor coefficients of the lower incomplete gamma function at infinity seem to be new.…
Let $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ Hecke-Maass cusp form satisfying the Ramanujan conjecture and the Selberg-Ramanujan conjecture, and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $M$, which we assume to be prime for simplicity. We…
In the present paper, we show that under the Riemann hypothesis, and for fixed $h, \epsilon > 0$, the supremum of the real and the imaginary parts of $\log \zeta (1/2 + it)$ for $t \in [UT -h, UT + h]$ are in the interval $[(1-\epsilon)…
In a recent paper with Sprang and Zudilin, the following result was proved: if $a$ is large enough in terms of $\varepsilon>0$, then at least $2^{(1-\varepsilon)\frac{\log a}{\log \log a}}$ values of the Riemann zeta function at odd…
The Riemann-Lebesque Theorem is commonly proved in a few strokes using the theory of Lebesque integration. Here, the upper bound $2\pi|c_k(f)|\le S_k(f)-s_k(f)$ for the Fourier coefficients $c_k$ is proved in terms of majoring and minoring…
Given a Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$ and its associated $L$-function, $L(s,\chi)$, we provide an explicit version of Burgess' estimate for $|L(s, \chi)|$. We use partial summation to provide bounds along the vertical lines $\Re{s}…
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…
Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we use Beurling-Selberg extremal functions to bound the mean and mean square of the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a large prime modulus $q$. As applications, we give alternative proofs of…
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 $(\log N)^{1/4}(\log\log N)^{1/4}$.
For a proper function $f$ on the plane, we study the operator \[ Tf(x,y) = \lim_{\varepsilon\to 0} \int_\varepsilon^1 f(x-t,y-t^k) \frac{e^{2\pi i \gamma(t)}}{\psi(t)} dt, \] where $k\ge1$ and $\psi$ and $\gamma$ are functions defined near…
For each $t \in \mathbf{R}$, define the entire function $$ H_t(z) := \int_0^\infty e^{tu^2} \Phi(u) \cos(zu)\ du$$ where $\Phi$ is the super-exponentially decaying function $$ \Phi(u) := \sum_{n=1}^\infty (2\pi^2 n^4 e^{9u} - 3\pi n^2…
In 1946, A. Selberg proved $N(\sigma,T) \ll T^{1-\frac{1}{4} \left(\sigma-\frac{1}{2}\right)} \log{T}$ where $N(\sigma,T)$ is the number of nontrivial zeros $\rho$ of the Riemann zeta-function with $\Re\{\rho\}>\sigma$ and…
In recent years a variant of the resonance method was developed which allowed to obtain improved $\Omega$-results for the Riemann zeta function along vertical lines in the critical strip. In the present paper we show how this method can be…
