In this paper, we study weighted low-lying zeros of spinor and standard $L$-functions attached to degree 2 Siegel modular forms. We show the symmetry type of weighted low-lying zeros of spinor $L$-functions is symplectic, for test functions…

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 study the value distribution of the derivative of a Dirichlet $L$-function $L'(s,\chi)$ at the $a$-points $\rho_{a,\chi}=\beta_{a,\chi}+i\gamma_{a,\chi}$ of $L(s,\chi).$ We give an asymptotic formula for the sum…

In this paper we address the problem of computing asymptotic formulae for the expected values and second moments of central values of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1/2,\chi_{8d}\otimes\psi)$ when $\psi$ is a fixed even primitive…

We establish a general principle that any lower bound on the non-vanishing of central $L$-values obtained through studying the one-level density of low-lying zeros can be refined to show that most such $L$-values have the typical size…

One of the most important statistics in studying the zeros of L-functions is the 1-level density, which measures the concentration of zeros near the central point. Fouvry and Iwaniec [FI] proved that the 1-level density for L-functions…

We calculate the one-level density of thin subfamilies of a family of Hecke cuspforms formed by twisting the forms in a smaller family by a character. The result gives support up to 1, conditional on GRH, and we also find several of the…

We compute the expected value of Dirichlet $L$-functions defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ attached to cubic characters evaluated at an arbitrary $s \in (0,1)$. We find a transition term at the point $s=\frac{1}{3}$, reminiscent of the…

Given a non-principal Dirichlet character chi mod q, an important problem in number theory is to obtain good estimates for the size of L(1,chi). In this paper we focus on sharpening the upper bounds known for |L(1,chi)|; in particular, we…

We study the distribution of large (and small) values of several families of $L$-functions on a line $\text{Re(s)}=\sigma$ where $1/2<\sigma<1$. We consider the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the $t$-aspect, Dirichlet $L$-functions in…

Let $L(s, \chi_1), \ldots, L(s, \chi_N)$ be primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions different from the Riemann zeta function. Under suitable hypotheses we prove that any linear combination $a_1\log|L(\rho,\chi_1)|+\dots+a_N\log|L(\rho,\chi_N)|$…
