We initiate the study of certain families of $L$-functions attached to characters of subgroups of higher-rank tori, and of their average at the central point. In particular, we evaluate the average of the values…

We consider a certain class of multiplicative functions $f: \mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb C$. Let $F(s)= \sum_{n=1}^\infty f(n)n^{-s}$ be the associated Dirichlet series and $F_N(s)= \sum_{n\le N} f(n)n^{-s}$ be the truncated Dirichlet…

Let $\chi$ be a quadratic Dirichlet character. In some literatures, various asymptotic formulae of $L'(1,\chi)$, under the assumption that $L(1,\chi)$ takes a small value, were derived. In this paper, we will give a new treatment unified…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove that $$ N_k(T) = \frac{T}{2\pi}\log \frac{T}{4\pi e} + O_k\left(\frac{\log{T}}{\log\log{T}}\right), $$ where $N_k(T)$ is the number of zeros of $\zeta^{(k)}(s)$ in the region $0<\Im s\le T$. We…

Stephen D. Miller showed that, assuming the generalized Riemann Hypothesis, every entire $L$-function of real archimedian type has a zero in the interval $\frac12+i t$ with $-t_0 < t < t_0$, where $t_0\approx 14.13$ corresponds to the first…

For Dirichlet characters $\chi$ mod $k$ where $k\geq 3$, we here give a computable formula for evaluating the mean square sums $\sum\limits_{\substack{\chi \text{ mod }k\\\chi(-1)=(-1)^r}}|L(r,\chi)|^2$ for any positive integer $r\geq 3$.…

The first nontrivial zeroes of the Riemann $\zeta$ function are $\approx 1/2+\pm14.13472i$. We investigate the question of whether or not any other L-function has a higher lowest zero. To do so we try to quantify the notion that the…

It is proved that if $T$ is sufficiently large, then uniformly for all positive integers $\ell \leqslant (\log T) / (\log_2 T)$, we have \begin{equation*} \max_{T\leqslant t\leqslant 2T}\left|\zeta^{(\ell)}\Big(1+it\Big)\right| \geqslant…

We study the $1$-level density and the pair correlation of zeros of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions in function fields, as we average over the ensemble $\mathcal{H}_{2g+1}$ of monic, square-free polynomials with coefficients in…

Meher et al. [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 147 (2019)] have recently established that $L-$functions attached to certain cusp forms of half-integral weight have infinitely many zeros on the critical line. Kim [J. Numb. Th. 253 (2023)] obtained…

An algorithm is given to efficiently compute $L$-functions with large conductor in a restricted range of the critical strip. Examples are included for about 21000 dihedral Galois representations with conductor near $10^7$. The data shows…

In the present paper, we prove that the generalized Riemann hypothesis for the Dirichlet $L$-function $L(s,\chi)$ is equivalent to the following bound: Let $k \geq 1$ and $\ell$ be positive real numbers. For any $\epsilon >0$, we have…

Let $a=(a_n)_{n\ge 1}$ be a periodic sequence, $F_a(s)$ the meromorphic continuation of $\sum_{n\ge 1} a_n/n^s$, and $N_a(\sigma_1, \sigma_2, T)$ the number of zeros of $F_a(s)$, counted with their multiplicities, in the rectangle $\sigma_1…

We establish lower bounds for the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus for all real $k<0$, assuming the non-vanishing of these $L$-values.

We prove that, for arbitrary Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s;\chi_1),\ldots,L(s;\chi_n)$ (including the case when $\chi_j$ is equivalent to $\chi_l$ for $j\ne k$), suitable shifts of type $L(s+i\alpha_jt^{a_j}\log^{b_j}t;\chi_j)$ can…

We give a geometric criterion for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to cyclic characters over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ to vanish at the central point $s=1/2$. The idea is based on the observation that vanishing at the…

We establish sharp lower bounds for the $k$-th moment in the range $0 \leq k \leq 1$ of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point.

We show that the slopes of the~$U_5$ operator acting on slopes of 5-adic overconvergent modular forms of weight~$k$ with primitive Dirichlet character~$\chi$ of conductor~25 are given by either \[…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$, with L-function $L_E(s)$. For any primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$, let $L_E(s, \chi)$ be the L-function of $E$ twisted by $\chi$. In this paper, we use random matrix theory to study…

Let $P,M$ be a two primes such that $(P,M)=1$. Let $\Pi$ be a normalized Hecke-Maa\ss\ form on ${\rm{GL}}(4)$ of level $P$, and $\chi$ a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $M$. In this paper, we study the hybrid subconvexity problem for…
