We study the low-lying zeros of certain Artin $L$-functions associated with $D_4$-quartic function fields. Specifically, we prove that when ordered by conductor, at least $77\%$ of these $L$-functions are non-vanishing at the central point.…

The space of toroidal automorphic forms was introduced by Zagier in 1979. Let $F$ be a global field. An automorphic form on $\GL(2)$ is toroidal if it has vanishing constant Fourier coefficients along all embedded non-split tori. The…

In this article, we prove non-vanishing results for $L$-functions associated to holomorphic cusp forms of half-integral weight on average (over an orthogonal basis of Hecke eigenforms). This extends a result of W. Kohnen to forms of…

Let $-D < -4$ denote a fundamental discriminant which is either odd or divisible by 8, so that the canonical Hecke character of $\Bbb Q(\sqrt{-D})$ exists. Let $d$ be a fundamental discriminant prime to $D$. Let $2k-1$ be an odd natural…

In this paper we prove a hybrid subconvexity bound for class group $L$-functions associated to a quadratic extension $K/\mathbb{Q}$ (real or imaginary). Our proof relies on relating the class group $L$-functions to Eisenstein series…

In this note, following results from Henri Cohen and Winfried Kohnen, we show that for all integer k greater than 12 and divisible by 4, there exists a cuspidal eigenform of weight k for the full modular group SL2(Z) such that its Hecke…

For certain algebraic Hecke characters chi of an imaginary quadratic field F we define an Eisenstein ideal in a p-adic Hecke algebra acting on cuspidal automorphic forms of GL_2/F. By finding congruences between Eisenstein cohomology…

We prove the non-vanishing of special $L$-values of cuspidal automorphic forms on GL(2) twisted by Hecke characters of prime power orders and totally split prime power conductors. Main ingredients of the proof are estimating the Galois…

We work out instances of a general conjecture on congruences between Hecke eigenvalues of induced and cuspidal automorphic representations of a reductive group, modulo divisors of certain critical L-values, in the case that the group is a…

Let $\chi$ be an idele class character over a number field $F$, and let $\pi,\pi'$ be any two cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{A}_F)$. We prove that the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function…

Let L(E/Q,s) be the L-function of an elliptic curve E defined over the rational field Q. We examine the vanishing and non-vanishing of the central values L(E,1,\chi) of the twisted L-function as \chi ranges over Dirichlet characters of…

Let G be a finite simple group of Lie type. In this paper we study characters of G that vanish at the non-semisimple elements and whose degree is equal to the order of a maximal unipotent subgroup of G. Such characters can be viewed as a…

Let $\chi$ be an idele class character over a number field $F$, and let $\pi,\pi'$ be non-dihedral twist-inequivalent cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{A}_F)$. We prove that if $m,n\geq 0$ are integers, $m+n\geq…

Let $\lambda$ be a self-dual Hecke character over an imaginary quadratic field $K$ of infinity type $(1,0)$. Let $\ell$ and $p$ be primes which are coprime to $6N_{K/\mathbb{Q}}({\mathrm cond}(\lambda))$. We determine the $\ell$-adic…

We prove that there is a positive proportion of $L$-functions associated to cubic characters over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ that do not vanish at the critical point $s=1/2$. This is achieved by computing the first mollified moment using techniques…

In this paper we give a proof of Deligne's conjecture on the critical values of $L$-functions for arbitrary algebraic Hecke characters. This extends a result of Blasius, which only works in the case of CM fields. The key new insight is that…

We consider modular functions (i.e., the Eisenstein series and Hecke-Maass forms) for the group PSL(2,Z). We fix a quadratic number field E. This gives rise to twisted (by a Hecke character of the field E) periods of a modular function…
