In this paper, we prove some zero density theorems for certain families of Dirichlet $L$-functions. More specifically, the subjects of our interest are the collections of Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with characters to moduli from…
In this paper, we use the Weyl-bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions to derive zero-density estimates for $L$-functions associated to families of fixed-order Dirichlet characters. The results improve on previous bounds given by the author when…
We prove an upper bound on the density of zeros very close to the critical line of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of modulus $q$ at height $T$. To do this, we derive an asymptotic for the twisted second moment of Dirichlet…
We show, for any $q\ge 3$ and distinct reduced residues $a,b \pmod q$, the existence of certain hypothetical sets of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions lying off the critical line implies that $\pi(x;q,a)<\pi(x;q,b)$ for a set of real $x$ of…
In this paper, we estimate the proportion of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions on the critical line. Using Feng's mollifier and an asymptotic formula for the mean square of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we prove that averaged over primitive…
The problem of finding upper bounds for L-functions at the edge of the critical strip has a long and interesting history. Here, the situation for classical L-functions such as Dirichlet L-functions is relatively well understood. The reason…
We study, on average over f, zeros of the L-functions of primitive weight two forms of level q (fixed). We prove, on the one hand, density theorems for the zeros (similar to the results of Bombieri, Jutila, Motohashi, Selberg in the case of…
We use the Asymptotic Large Sieve and Levinson's method to obtain lower bounds for the proportion of simple zeros on the critical line of the twists by primitive Dirichlet characters of a fixed L-function of degree 1,2, or 3.
We prove a log-free zero density estimate for automorphic $L$-functions defined over a number field $k$. This work generalizes and sharpens the method of pseudo-characters and the large sieve used earlier by Kowalski and Michel. As…
We prove new bounds for how often Dirichlet polynomials can take large values. This gives improved estimates for a Dirichlet polynomial of length $N$ taking values of size close to $N^{3/4}$, which is the critical situation for several…
Let $\pi$ and $\pi_0$ be unitary cuspidal automorphic representations. We prove log-free zero density estimates for Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions of the form $L(s,\pi\times\pi_0)$, where $\pi$ varies in a given family and $\pi_0$ is fixed.…
The Linear Independence hypothesis (LI), which states roughly that the imaginary parts of the critical zeros of Dirichlet L-functions are linearly independent over the rationals, is known to have interesting consequences in the study of…
We combine the relative trace formula with analytic methods to obtain zero density estimate for $L$-functions in various families of automorphic representations for $\mathrm{GL}(m)$. Applications include strong bounds for the average…
The existence of non trivial zeros off the critical line for a function obtained by analytic continuation of a particular Dirichlet series is studied. Contrary to what has been presumed for a long time, we prove that such zeros cannot…
We prove an explicit log-free zero density estimate and an explicit version of the zero-repulsion phenomenon of Deuring and Heilbronn for Hecke $L$-functions. In forthcoming work of the second author, these estimates will be used to…
Let $F$ be a linear combination of $N\geq 1$ Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to even (or odd) primitive characters with the same modulus. Selberg proved that a positive proportion of non-trivial zeros of $F$ lie on the critical line. Our…
In this note we investigate the existence of zeros of linear twists of $L$-functions outside of the critical strip. In particular, we show that the Lerch zeta function $L(\lambda,\alpha,s)$ has infinitely many zeros for $1<\sigma<1+\eta$,…
Given a zero-free region and an averaged zero-density estimate over all Dirichlet $L$-functions modulo $q\in\mathbb{N}$, we refine the error terms of the prime number theorem in all and almost all short arithmetic progressions. For example,…
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 this paper, we are interested in explicit zero-free discs for some Dirichlet series and we also study a general Beurling-Nyman criterion for $L$-functions. Our results generalize and improve previous results obtained by N. Nikolski and…
