For a given Dirichlet character $\chi (n) = e^{i \theta_n}$, we prove central limit theorems for the series $\sum_{p'} \cos \theta_{p'}$ for non-principal characters, and $\sum_{p' } \cos (t \log p')$ for principal characters, where $p'$…

We show that for any relatively prime integers $1\leq p<q$ and for any finite $A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ one has $$|p \cdot A + q \cdot A | \geq (p + q) |A| - (pq)^{(p+q-3)(p+q) + 1}.$$

It is well known that the distribution of the prime numbers plays a central role in number theory. It has been known, since Riemann's memoir in 1860, that the distribution of prime numbers can be described by the zero-free region of the…

For a nonprincipal character $\chi$ modulo $D$, when $x\ge D^{\frac56+\varepsilon}$, $(l,D) = 1$, we prove a nontrivial estimate of the form $\sum_{n\le x}\Lambda (n)\chi (n-l)\ll x\exp\left(-0.6\sqrt{\ln D}\right)$ for the sum of values of…

We consider sums of the form $$F_\chi(\alpha,\beta;\theta) := \sum_{\alpha p<n\le\beta p}\chi(n)e(n\theta),$$ where $\chi$ is a non-principal Dirichlet character modulo a prime number $p$. We prove that $$ \sqrt p \log \log p \ll \max_{0…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to a non trivial primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ defined $\bmod\ q$, where $q$ is an odd prime. In this paper we introduce a fast method to compute $\vert L(1,\chi) \vert$ using…

Let $\chi$ be a primitive character modulo $q$, and let $\delta > 0$. Assuming that $\chi$ has large order $d$, for any $d$th root of unity $\alpha$ we obtain non-trivial upper bounds for the number of $n \leq x$ such that $\chi(n) =…

For any integer $d\geq 3$ such that $-d$ is a fundamental discriminant, we show that the Dirichlet $L$-function associated with the real primitive character $\chi(\cdot)=(\frac{-d}{\cdot})$ does not vanish on the positive part of the…

We show that the existence of arithmetic progressions with few primes, with a quantitative bound on "few", implies the existence of larger gaps between primes less than x than is currently known unconditionally. In particular, we derive…

For any irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, let $\theta(\chi)$ denote the proportion of elements $g\in G$ for which $\chi(g)$ is either zero or a root of unity. Then for any $L\in[1/2,1]$ and any $\epsilon>0$, there exists…

Let $0 < a \le 1/2$ and define the quadrilateral zeta function by $2Q(s,a) := \zeta (s,a) + \zeta (s,1-a) + {\rm{Li}}_s (e^{2\pi ia}) + {\rm{Li}}_s(e^{2\pi i(1-a)})$, where $\zeta (s,a)$ is the Hurwitz zeta function and ${\rm{Li}}_s…

We prove joint universality theorems on the half plane of absolute convergence for general classes of Dirichlet series with an Euler-product, where in addition to vertical shifts we also allow scaling. This generalizes our recent joint…

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 generalizations of the Nyman-Beurling and B\'aez-Duarte criteria concerning lack of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions in the semi-plane $\Re(s) >1/p$ for $p\in (1,2]$. We pose and solve a natural extremal problem for Dirichlet…

In this paper, we establish a new lower bound for the number of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ on the critical line within extremely short intervals. Specifically, for a sufficiently large prime $P$ and real number…

Let $\pi$ be an irreducible unitary cuspidal representation for $GL_m({\Bbb A}_{\Bbb Q})$, and let $L(s, \pi)$ be the automorphic $L$-function attached to $\pi$, which has a Dirichlet series expression in the half-plane $\mbox{Re} s>1$.…

We show, conditional on a uniform version of the prime k-tuples conjecture, that there are x(log x)^{-1+o(1)} numbers not exceeding x common to the ranges of Euler's function phi(n) and the sum-of-divisors function sigma(m).

Let $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ Hecke-Maass cusp form, and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $M$, which we assume to be prime. In this note we revisit the subconvexity problem addressed in `The circle method and bounds…

In this paper we discuss a method to express the Prime counting function as a "sum" over Non-trivial zeros of Riemann Zeta function, using techniques from Analytic Number Theory, also we apply our results to the sum over primes of any…

We prove asymptotics for mollified first and second moments of subfamilies of Dirichlet $L$-functions given by shrinking angular restrictions on the root number. Using these moments, we prove that for even primitive characters with prime…
