We prove a version of the Extra-zero conjecture formulated by the first named author for p-adic L-functions associated to Rankin-Selberg convolutions of modular forms of the same weight. The novelty of this result is to provide strong…
In this paper, we prove that if the Fourier coefficients of a $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke--Maa\ss\ cusp form $\pi$ are not too correlated with additive characters, then there exists infinitely many Dirichlet characters such that…
We establish power-saving estimates for general bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums modulo arbitrary q, including when both variables are shorter than the Polya-Vinogradov range. As an application, we obtain power-saving asymptotics for…
Let $F$ be a cuspidal Hermitian eigenform of degree two over $\mathbb{Q}(i)$, with first Fourier-Jacobi coefficient not identically zero. Building on a paper by Das and Jha, we prove the meromorphic continuation to $\mathbb{C}$ and the…
We prove the asymptotic formulae for several moments of derivatives of GL(2) L-functions over quadratic twists. The family of L-functions we consider has root number fixed to -1 and odd orthogonal symmetry. Assuming GRH we prove the…
Hoffstein and Hulse recently introduced the notion of shifted convolution Dirichlet series for pairs of modular forms $f_1$ and $f_2$. The second two authors investigated certain special values of symmetrized sums of such functions, numbers…
We give explicit upper bounds for the coefficients of arbitrary weight $k$, level 2 cusp forms, making Deligne's well-known $O(n^{\frac{k-1}{2}+\epsilon})$ bound precise. We also derive asymptotic formulas and explicit upper bounds for the…
We consider the Rankin-Selberg L-functions associated with a fixed modular form of full level and holomorphic cuspidal newforms of large even weight, fixed level and fixed primitive nebentypus. We compute the second moment of this family in…
In this article, we study the second moment of cubic Dirichlet L-functions at the central point $s=1/2$ over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$, where $q$ is a power of an odd prime satisfying $q \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$. Our result…
The purpose of this paper is to study the special values of the standard $L$-functions for quaternionic modular forms using the doubling method. We obtain an integral representation for the $L$-function twisted by a character and construct…
We prove an upper bound for the twelfth moment of Hecke $L$-functions associated to holomorphic Hecke cusp forms of weight $k$ in a dyadic interval $T \leq k \leq 2T$ as $T$ tends to infinity. This bound recovers the Weyl-strength subconvex…
We extend the work of Fouvry, Kowalski and Michel on correlation between Hecke eigenvalues of modular forms and algebraic trace functions in order to establish an asymptotic formula for a generalized cubic moment of modular L-functions at…
The theory of elliptic modular forms has gained significant momentum from the discovery of relaxed yet well-behaved notions of modularity, such as mock modular forms, higher order modular forms, and iterated Eichler-Shimura integrals.…
Modular equations occur in number theory, but it is less known that such equations also occur in the study of deformation properties of quasiconformal mappings. The authors study two important plane quasiconformal distortion functions,…
The purpose of this partly expository paper is to give an introduction to modular forms on $G_2$. We do this by focusing on two aspects of $G_2$ modular forms. First, we discuss the Fourier expansion of modular forms, following work of…
This article is a research exposition based on the author's talk at the International Colloquium on Automorphic Representations and L-Functions, 2012, held at TIFR, Mumbai. We consider some special cases of the following question: when is a…
Let $F$ be a number field with adele ring $\mathbb{A}_F$, $\pi_1, \pi_2$ be two fixed unitary automorphic representations of $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{A}_F)$ with finite coprime analytic conductor $\mathfrak{u}$ and $\mathfrak{v}$,…
In the first part, we consider generalized quadratic Gauss sums as finite analogues of the Jacobi theta function, and the reciprocity law for Gauss sums as their transformation formula. We attach finite Dirichlet series to Gauss sums using…
Traces of singular moduli were introduced and studied by Zagier in 1998. Being simultaneously the (traces of) values of a modular function ($j$-invariant) and Fourier coefficients of modular forms - which constitutes Zagier's duality -…
We let $f$ be a half-integral weight modular form of weight $\kappa>4$ on $\Gamma_0(4)$ that is an eigenfunction of all Hecke operators $T_n$, so that $T_nf = \Lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{\kappa-1}{2}}f$. Let $\|f\|$ denote the Petersson norm of…
