We prove a non-vanishing result for families of $\GL_n\times\GL_n$ Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions in the critical strip, as one factor runs over twists by Hecke characters. As an application, we simplify the proof, due to Luo, Rudnick, and…

We show that the central value of class group L-functions of CM fields can be expressed in terms of derivatives of real-analytic Hilbert Eisenstein series at CM points. Then, following an idea of Iwaniec and Kowalski we obtain a conditional…

We consider $L$-functions attached to representations of the Galois group of the function field of a curve over a finite field. Under mild tameness hypotheses, we prove non-vanishing results for twists of these $L$-functions by characters…
