We obtain a lower bound on the number of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field which vanish at the central point $s = 1/2$. This is in contrast with the situation over the rational numbers, where a conjecture of…

A quadratic twist of the L-function associated with a modular form is known to satisfy a functional equation, which may be even or odd. A result due to Gross and Zagier explicitly computes the central value of the L-function or its…

Let $q$ be a prime, $\chi$ be a non-principal Dirichlet character $\bmod\ q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the associated Dirichlet $L$-function. For every odd prime $q\le 10^7$, we show that $L(1,\chi_\square) > c_{1} \log q$ and $\beta < 1-…

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…

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…

In this paper, we consider the family $\{L_j(s)\}_{j=1}^{\infty}$ of $L$-functions associated to an orthonormal basis $\{u_j\}_{j=1}^{\infty}$ of even Hecke-Maass forms for the modular group $SL(2, Z)$ with eigenvalues…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to a non trivial primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ defined $\bmod\ q$, where $q$ is an odd prime. In this paper we introduce a fast method to compute $\vert L(1,\chi) \vert$ using…

Let F(z) be a newform of weight 2k and level one with a trivial character, and assume that F(z) is a non-zero eigenform of all Hecke operators. In this paper, we study nonvanishing for central values of twisted modular L-function of F.

Let $\chi$ be a real non-principal character modulo a prime $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the corresponding $L$-function. We prove that for any real number $s\geq 1$ there holds $$ -\frac{L'(s,\chi )}{L(s,\chi)}\leq c \log q,$$ where $c$ can be…

In this paper we prove a lower bound result for extremely large values of $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi_p)$ with prime numbers $p\equiv 1\pmod 8$.

In this paper, we prove that if the Fourier coefficients of a $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke--Maa\ss\ cusp form $\pi$ are not too correlated with additive characters, then there exists infinitely many Dirichlet characters such that…

Let E be an elliptic curve and \rho an Artin representation, both defined over the rational numbers. Let p be a prime at which E has good reduction. We prove that there exists an infinite set of Dirichlet characters \chi, ramified only at…

In this paper, we show that, on average, the derivatives of $L$-functions of cuspidal Hilbert modular forms with sufficiently large weight $k$ do not vanish on the line segments $\Im(s)=t_{0}$,…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be Chebyshev's prime-counting function for primes congruent to $a$ modulo $q$. We show that under the assumption of an…

We prove a subconvexity bound for the central value L(1/2, chi) of a Dirichlet L-function of a character chi to a prime power modulus q=p^n of the form L(1/2, chi)\ll p^r * q^(theta+epsilon) with a fixed r and theta\approx 0.1645 < 1/6,…

We prove a non-vanishing result for central values of $L$-functions on GL(3), by using the mollification method and the Kuznetsov trace formula.

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…

We estimate the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of $L(s,\chi)$ with $\chi$ ranging over primitive Dirichlet characters of conductor $\in [Q/2,Q]$ and for test functions whose Fourier transform is supported in $[- 2 - 50/1093, 2 +…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form of integral weight $k \geq 3$ for $\Gamma_{0}(N)$ with nebentypus character $\psi$. Generalising work of Kohnen and Raghuram we construct a kernel function for the $L$-function $L(f,\chi,s)$ of $f$ twisted…
