We define an axiomatic class of L-functions extending the Selberg class. We show in particular that one can recast the traditional conditions of an Euler product, analytic continuation and functional equation in terms of distributional…

The analytic properties of automorphic L-functions have historically been obtained either through integral representations (the "Rankin-Selberg method"), or properties of the Fourier expansions of Eisenstein series (the "Langlands-Shahidi…

In this paper, we establish a simple criterion for two $L$-functions $L_1$ and $L_2$ satisfying a functional equation (and some natural assumptions) to have infinitely many distinct zeros. Some related questions have already been answered…

In recent years L-functions and their analytic properties have assumed a central role in number theory and automorphic forms. In this expository article, we describe the two major methods for proving the analytic continuation and functional…

We give a proof of the existence of Asai, exterior square, and symmetric square local $L$-functions, $\gamma$-factors and root numbers in characteristic $p$, including the case of $p = 2$. Our study is made possible by developing the…

We give a full description of the functions $F$ of degree 2 and conductor 1 in the general framework of the extended Selberg class. This is performed by means of a new numerical invariant $\chi_F$, which is easily computed from the data of…

This is a report on the global aspects of the Langlands-Shahidi method which in conjunction with converse theorems of Cogdell and Piatetski-Shapiro has recently been instrumental in establishing a significant number of new and surprising…

Let G be the group of points of a quasi-split reductive algebraic group over a local field F. It follows from the local Langlands conjectures that to every non-trivial additive character of F and every representation of the Langlands dual…

We present a streamlined account of a recent theorem on the classification of the $L$-functions of degree 2 and conductor 1 from the extended Selberg class. We also present a more general new result dealing with functional equations…

This is a semi-expository article concerning Langlands functoriality and Deligne's conjecture on the special values of $L$-functions. The emphasis is on symmetric power $L$-functions associated to a holomorphic cusp form, while appealing to…

We study the L-functions associated to Siegel modular forms (equivalently, automorphic representations of ${\rm GSp}(4,\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$) both theoretically and numerically. For the L-functions of degrees 10, 14, and 16 we perform…

The author reviews results and conjectures of Selberg on a class of Dirichlet series functions which share properties with the Riemann zeta function, and he relates this work to the theory of Artin L-functions.

In 2023, Li, Du, Yi proved a uniqueness theorem for L functions in the extended Selberg class under the assumptions of positive degree, a shared functional equation, and the sharing of three complex values. This was later strengthened by…

We provide a definition for an extended system of $\gamma$-factors for products of generic representations $\tau$ and $\pi$ of split classical groups or general linear groups over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic $p$. We…

We prove a highly uniform version of the prime number theorem for a certain class of $L$-functions. The range of $x$ depends polynomially on the analytic conductor, and the error term is expressed in terms of an optimization problem…

This is a survey of recent work on values of Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions of pairs of cohomological automorphic representations that are {\it critical} in Deligne's sense. The base field is assumed to be a CM field. Deligne's conjecture is…

Let $\pi$ be a square integrable representation of a classical group and let $\rho$ be a cuspidal representation of a general linear group. We can define in two different ways an L-function $L(\rho \times \pi,s)$: first we can use the…

Inspired by the theories of Kaplansky-Hilbert modules and probability theory in vector lattices, we generalise functional analysis by replacing the scalars $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$ by a real or complex Dedekind complete unital…

With respect to the analytic-algebraic dichotomy, the theory of Siegel modular forms of half-integral weight is lopsided; the analytic theory is strong whereas the algebraic lags behind. In this paper, we capitalise on this to establish the…

Langlands' beyond endoscopy proposal for establishing functoriality motivates interesting and concrete problems in the representation theory of algebraic groups. We study these problems in a setting related to the Langlands $L$-functions…
