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…

An asymptotic formula for the sum $\sum L(1,\chi)$ is established for a family of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ as $g\rightarrow\infty$ making use of the analogue of the approximate functional…

We study the 2k-th power moment of Dirichlet L-functions L(s,\chi) at the centre of the critical strip (s=1/2), where the average is over all primitive characters \chi (mod q). We extend to this case the hybrid Euler-Hadamard product…

Let $q$ be a positive integer ($\geq 2$), $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $q$, $L(s, \chi)$ be the attached Dirichlet $L$-function, and let $L^\prime(s, \chi)$ denote its derivative with respect to the complex variable $s$. Let $t_0$…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper bounds with explicit main terms for moduli of $\left(\cL'/\cL\right)(s)$ and $\log{\cL(s)}$ for $1/2+\delta\leq\sigma<1$, fixed $\delta\in(0,1/2)$ and for functions in…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the imaginary parts of zeros near the real axis of Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to the quadratic characters $\chi_{p}(\cdot)=(\cdot |p)$ with $p$ a prime number. Assuming the…

We computationally verify that if $L(s,\chi)$ is a quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function modulo $q \leq 10^{10}$ then $L(\sigma,\chi) \neq 0$ for real $\sigma \ge 1-1/(5\log q)$. The number of verified moduli exceeds benchmarks due to Watkins…

We survey a number of different methods for computing $L(\chi,1-k)$ for a Dirichlet character $\chi$, with particular emphasis on quadratic characters. The main conclusion is that when $k$ is not too large (for instance $k\le100$) the best…

In this rather computational paper, we determine certain representation numbers of ideals in real quadratic number fields explicitly in order to obtain a representation of the associated Dirichlet series in terms of Dirichlet L-functions…

In this paper we prove that the Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1/2+ix,\chi_q)$, where $\chi_q$ is uniformly random Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $x\in \mathbb{R}$, converges to a random Schwartz distribution $\zeta_{\mathrm{rand}}$, which…

We apply the method of multiple Dirichlet series to develop $L$-functions ratios conjecture with one shift in both the numerator and denominator in certain ranges for the family of quartic Hecke $L$-functions of prime moduli over the…

An explicit hybrid estimate for $L(1/2+it,\chi)$ is derived, where $\chi$ is a Dirichlet character modulo $q$. The estimate applies when $t$ is bounded away from zero, and is most effective when $q$ is powerfull, yielding an explicit Weyl…

Let $\chi_D$ be the Dirichlet character associated to $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ where $D < 0$ is a fundamental discriminant. Improving Granville-Stark [DOI:10.1007/s002229900036], we show that \[ \frac{L'}{L}(1,\chi_D) = \frac{1}{6}\,…

We establish sharp upper bounds for shifted moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. Our result is then used to prove bounds for moments of quadratic Dirichlet character sums.

For any given integer $k\geq 2$ we prove the existence of infinitely many $q$ and characters $ \chi\pmod q$ of order $k$, such that $|L(1,\chi)|\geq (e^{\gamma}+o(1))\log\log q$. We believe this bound to be best possible. When the order $k$…

We consider a general form of L-function L(s) defined by an Euler product and satisfies several analytic assumptions. We show several asymptotic formulas for L(1) and log L(1). In particular those asymptotic formulas are valid for Dirichlet…

We deal with negative square moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions. Summing over characters modulo $q$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the negative second moment of $L(1,\chi)$ involving conductors. As an application, we give the improved…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the first moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over function fields at the central point $s=\tfrac{1}{2}$. Specifically, we compute the expected value of $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\chi)$ for an ensemble of…

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 $r\geq 3$.…
