We prove an asymptotic formula with a power-saving error term for a specific weighted second moment of $\mathrm{GL}(2)\times \mathrm{GL}(2)$ Rankin-Selberg $L$-function, $L(1/2,\pi\otimes \pi_0)$ over any number field $F$ where $\pi$ runs…

We compute the second moment of a certain family of Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions L(f x g, 1/2) where f and g are Hecke-Maass cusp forms on GL(n). Our bound is as strong as the Lindel\"of hypothesis on average, and recovers individually the…

We consider the family of Rankin-Selberg convolution L-functions of a fixed SL(3, Z) Maass form with the family of Hecke-Maass cusp forms on SL(2, Z). We estimate the second moment of this family of L-functions with a "long" integration in…

By the unfolding method, Rankin-Selberg L-functions for ${\rm GL}(n)\times{\rm GL}(m)$ can be expressed in terms of period integrals. These period integrals actually define invariant forms on tensor products of the relevant automorphic…
Let $\pi$ and $\pi'$ be cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}(n)$ and $\mathrm{GL}(n')$ with unitary central characters. We establish a new zero-free region for all $\mathrm{GL}(1)$-twists of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function…
We prove that for any pair of irreducible principal series representations $(\pi_1,\pi_2)$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})$ in general position, the notions of exceptional pole of type 1 and type 2 coincide. Using this identification,…
Let $f$ and $g$ be holomorphic or Maass cusp forms for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character of prime power conductor $\mathfrak{q}=p^{\kappa}$ with $p$ prime and $\kappa>12$. A subconvex bound for the…
