We revisit Munshi's proof of the $t$-aspect subconvex bound for $\rm GL(3)$ $L$-functions, and we are able to remove the `conductor lowering' trick. This simplification along with a more careful stationary phase analysis allows us to…

For Dirichlet series roughly of the type $Z(s, w) = sum_d L(s, chi_d) d^{-w}$ the subconvexity bound $Z(s, w) \ll (sw(s+w))^{1/6+\varepsilon}$ is proved on the critical lines $\Re s = \Re w = 1/2$. The convexity bound would replace 1/6 with…

We prove strong hybrid subconvex bounds simultaneously in the $q$ and $t$ aspects for $L$-functions of selfdual $\mathrm{GL}_3$ cusp forms twisted by primitive Dirichlet characters. We additionally prove analogous hybrid subconvex bounds…

In this paper, we study the second moment for $GL(2)\times GL(2)$ $L$-functions $L(\frac{1}{2},f\times g)$, which leads to a uniform subconvexity bound in the spectral aspect. In particular, if either $f$ or $g$ is a dihedral Maass newform,…

The Burgess inequality is the best upper bound we have for the character sum $S_{\chi}(M,N) = \sum_{M<n\le M+N} \chi(n).$ Until recently, no explicit estimates had been given for the inequality. In 2006, Booker gave an explicit estimate for…
