We analyse a collection of twisted mixed moments of the Riemann zeta function and establish the validity of asymptotic formulae comprising on some instances secondary terms of the shape $P(\log T) T^{C}$ for a suitable constant $C<1$ and a…

We establish upper bounds for shifted moments of cubic and quartic Dirichlet $L$-functions under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. As an application, we prove bounds for moments of cubic and quartic Dirichlet character sums.

Let $\tau_3(n)$ be the triple divisor function which is the number of solutions of the equation $d_1d_2d_3=n$ in natural numbers. It is shown that $$ \sum_{1\leq n_1,n_2,n_3\leq \sqrt{x}}\tau_3(n_1^2+n_2^2+n_3^2)=c_1x^{\frac{3}{2}}(\log…

The celebrated Riemann-Siegel formula compares the Riemann zeta function on the critical line with its partial sums, expressing the difference between them as an expansion in terms of decreasing powers of the imaginary variable $t$. Siegel…

This paper investigates the Erd\H{o}s distinct subset sums problem in $\mathbb{Z}^k$. Beyond the classical variance method, using alternative statistical quantities like $\mathbb{E}[\|X\|_1]$ and $\mathbb{E}[\|X\|_3^3]$ can yield better…

Keating and Snaith modeled the Riemann zeta-function \zeta(s) by characteristic polynomials of random NxN unitary matrices, and used this to conjecture the asymptotic main term for the 2k-th moment of \zeta(1/2+it) when k>-1/2. However, an…

We deduce an asymptotic formula with error term for the sum $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k \le x} f([n_1,\ldots, n_k])$, where $[n_1,\ldots, n_k]$ stands for the least common multiple of the positive integers $n_1,\ldots, n_k$ ($k\ge 2$) and $f$…

Assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, we prove a sharp upper bound on moments of shifted Dirichlet $L$-functions. We use this to obtain conditional upper bounds on high moments of theta functions. Both of these results strengthen…
