Considering the family of $L$-functions $\{L(s,f)\}_{f \in H_k}$ where $H_k$ is the set of weight $k$ Hecke-eigen cusp forms for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$, we prove a zero density estimate near the central point, valid as the weight $k \to…

We study the local statistics of zeros of $L$-functions attached to Artin-Scheier curves over finite fields. We consider three families of Artin-Schreier $L$-functions: the ordinary, polynomial (the $p$-rank 0 stratum) and odd-polynomial…
By using a variant of Kowalski's large sieve for Frobenius in compatible systems, we obtain zero-density estimates for arguments of $\ell$-adic trace functions over finite fields with values in some algebraic subsets of the cyclotomic…
In this paper, we use the Weyl-bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions to derive zero-density estimates for $L$-functions associated to families of fixed-order Dirichlet characters. The results improve on previous bounds given by the author when…
Let $K$ be a number field and, for an integral ideal $\mathfrak{q}$ of $K$, let $\chi$ be a character of the narrow ray class group modulo $\mathfrak{q}$. We establish various new and improved explicit results, with effective dependence on…
We study a new orthogonal family of $L$-functions associated with holomorphic Hecke newforms of level $q$, averaged over $q \asymp Q$. To illustrate our methods, we prove a one level density result for this family with the support of the…
Let $\mathfrak{F}_n$ be the set of unitary cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a number field $F$, and let $S\subseteq\mathfrak{F}_n$ be an arbitrary finite subset. Given $\pi_0\in\mathfrak{F}_{n_0}$, we establish…
The density conjecture of Katz and Sarnak predicts that, for natural families of L-functions, the distribution of zeros lying near the real axis is governed by a group of symmetry. In the case of the universal family of automorphic forms of…
We consider certain families of automorphic representations over number fields arising from the principle of functoriality of Langlands. Let $G$ be a reductive group over a number field $F$ which admits discrete series representations at…
For integers $m, m' \ge 1$, let $\pi$ and $\pi'$ be cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}(m)$ and $\mathrm{GL}(m')$, respectively. We present a new proof of zero-free regions for $L(s, \pi)$ and for $L(s, \pi \times \pi')$…
Under the generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), Baluyot, Chandee, and Li nearly doubled the range in which the density of low lying zeros predicted by Katz and Sarnak is known to hold for a large family of automorphic $L$-functions with…
It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of a number field $K$ is determined (up to isomorphism) by the characteristic polynomials of…
We study the range of validity of the density hypothesis for the zeros of $L$-functions associated with cusp Hecke eigenforms $f$ of even integral weight and prove that $N_{f}(\sigma, T) \ll T^{2(1-\sigma)+\varepsilon}$ holds for $\sigma…
We prove an analogue of Selberg's zero density estimate for $\zeta(s)$ that holds for any $\mathrm{GL}_2$ $L$-function. We use this estimate to study the distribution of the vector of fractional parts of $\gamma\mathbf{\alpha}$, where…
Let $K/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields. It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible, finitely ramified $p$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of $K$ is determined…
Let $f$ be a fixed holomorphic primitive cusp form of even weight $k$, level $r$ and trivial nebentypus $\chi_r$. Let $q$ be an odd prime with $(q,r)=1$ and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulus $q$ with $\chi\neq\chi_r$. In…
We study the distribution of values of automorphic $L$-functions in a family of holomorphic cusp forms with prime level. We prove an asymptotic formula for a certain density function closely related to this value-distribution. The formula…
