We improve the error term in the asymptotic formula for the twisted fourth moment of automorphic L functions of prime level and weight two proved by Kowalski, Michel and Vanderkam. As a consequence, we obtain a new subconvexity bound in the…

We establish sharp lower bounds for the $2k$-th moment in the range $k \geq 1/2$ of the family of quadratic twists of modular $L$-functions at the central point.

We derive upper bounds for the trace of the heat kernel $Z(t)$ of the Dirichlet Laplace operator in an open set $\Omega \subset \R^d$, $d \geq 2$. In domains of finite volume the result improves an inequality of Kac. Using the same methods…

We establish upper bounds for moments of smoothed quadratic Dirichlet character sums under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, confirming a conjecture of M. Jutila.

We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface with exponent $\frac{2}{3}+\varepsilon$, improving upon the long-standing exponent $\frac{25}{36}+\varepsilon$ of Soundararajan-Young (2013). This was previously known…

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…

We establish a Weyl-type subconvexity of $L(\tfrac{1}{2},f)$ for spherical Hilbert newforms $f$ with level ideal $\mathfrak{N}^2$, in which $\mathfrak{N}$ is required to be cube-free, and at any prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ with…

Let $q$ be a prime, $\chi$ be a non-principal Dirichlet character $\bmod\ q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the associated Dirichlet $L$-function. For every odd prime $q\le 10^7$, we show that $L(1,\chi_\square) > c_{1} \log q$ and $\beta < 1-…

In this series, we investigate the calculation of mean values of derivatives of Dirichlet $L$-functions in function fields using the analogue of the approximate functional equation and the Riemann Hypothesis for curves over finite fields.…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment of central values of a family of quadratic Hecke $L$-functions in the Gaussian field under the generalized Riemann hypothesis (GRH). We also establish lower bounds unconditionally and…

There has recently been some interest in optimizing the error term in the asymptotic for the fourth moment of Dirichlet L-functions and a closely related mixed moment of L-functions involving automorphic L-functions twisted by Dirichlet…

We study non-vanishing of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point under the unlikely assumption that there exists an exceptional Dirichlet character. In particular we prove that if $\psi$ is a real primitive character modulo $D \in…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper and lower bounds with explicit main terms for $\log{\left|\cL(s)\right|}$ for $\sigma \in (1/2,1)$ and for functions in the Selberg class. In particular, we focus on the…

The purpose of this paper is to study the eigenvalues $\{\lambda_{\mu,i} \}_i$ for the Dirichlet Hardy-Leray operator, i.e. $$ -\Delta u+\mu|x|^{-2}u=\lambda u\ \ {\rm in}\ \, \Omega,\quad\quad u=0\ \ {\rm on}\ \ \partial\Omega,$$ where…

Let $g \geq 3$ be fixed and odd, and for large $q$ let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ of order $g$. Conditionally on GRH we improve the existing upper bounds in the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality for $\chi$, showing…

We use a `trivial' delta method to prove the Weyl bound in $t$-aspect for the $\rm L$-function of a holomorphic or a Hecke-Maass cusp form of arbitrary level and nebentypus. In particular, this extends the results of Meurman and Jutila for…

Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character whose conductor $q$ is a prime number. For the certain averages of values of $\log |L(s, \chi)|$ in $q$-aspect at a fixed $s=\sigma>1/2$, under Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we explain…

Fix an elliptic curve $E/\Q$, and assume the generalized Riemann hypothesis for the $L$-function $ L(E_D, s) $ for every quadratic twist $E_D$ of $E$ by $D\in\Z$. We combine Weil's explicit formula with techniques of Heath-Brown to derive…

We describe a new method to obtain weak subconvexity bounds for $L$-functions with mild hypotheses on the size of the Dirichlet coefficients. We verify these hypotheses for all automorphic $L$-functions and (with mild restrictions) the…

We employ a regularized relative trace formula to establish a second moment estimate for twisted $L$-functions across all aspects over a number field. Our results yield hybrid subconvex bounds for both Hecke $L$-functions and twisted…
