In this paper, we study the moments of central values of Hecke $L$-functions associated with quadratic characters in $\mathbb{Q}(i)$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$ with $\omega = exp(2\pi i/3)$ and establish some quantitative non-vanishing result…

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}\,…

In this paper, we estimate the proportion of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions on the critical line. Using Feng's mollifier and an asymptotic formula for the mean square of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we prove that averaged over primitive…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the smoothly weighted first moment of primitive quadratic Dirichlet L-functions at the central point, with an error term that is "square-root" of the main term. Our approach uses a recursive technique…

Let $-D < -4$ denote a fundamental discriminant which is either odd or divisible by 8, so that the canonical Hecke character of $\Bbb Q(\sqrt{-D})$ exists. Let $d$ be a fundamental discriminant prime to $D$. Let $2k-1$ be an odd natural…

In 2008, Soundararajan showed that there exists a normalized Hecke eigenform $f$ of weight $k$ and level one such that $$ L(1/2, f ) ~\geq~ \exp\Bigg( (1 + o(1)) \sqrt{\frac{2\log k}{\log\log k} }\Bigg) $$ for sufficiently large $k \equiv 0…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to a non-principal primitive character $\chi$ modulo $q$ with $3\le q \le 400\,000$. We prove a new explicit zero-free region for $L(s,\chi)$: $L(s,\chi)$ does not vanish in 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…

In this article, we establish a large sieve inequality for additive characters to moduli in the range of appropriate integer polynomials of degree two. As an application, we derive a weighted zero-density estimate for twists of…

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…

For a given cusp form $\phi$ of even integral weight satisfying certain hypotheses, Waldspurger's Theorem relates the critical value of the $\mathrm{L}$-function of the $n$-th quadratic twist of $\phi$ to the $n$-th coefficient of a certain…

We prove a subconvexity bound for the central value L(1/2, chi) of a Dirichlet L-function of a character chi to a prime power modulus q=p^n of the form L(1/2, chi)\ll p^r * q^(theta+epsilon) with a fixed r and theta\approx 0.1645 < 1/6,…

As we have shown several years ago [Y2], zeros of $L(s, \Delta )$ and $L^(2)(s, \Delta )$ can be calculated quite efficiently by a certain experimental method. Here $\Delta$ denotes the cusp form of weight 12 with respect to SL$(2, Z)$ and…

The purpose of this paper is to construct the p-adic twisted (h,q)-Euler-l-function, which interpolates the twisted generalized twisted Euler numbers attached to chi at a negative integer.

We present an elementary derivation of the Jacquet-Shalika construction for the exterior square L-function on GL(n), as a classical Dirichlet series in the Fourier coefficients $A(m_1,...,m_{n-1})$.

Let $m\ge 1$ be a rational integer. We give an explicit formula for the mean value $$\frac{2}{\phi(f)}\sum_{\chi (-1)=(-1)^m}\vert L(m,\chi )\vert^2,$$ where $\chi$ ranges over the $\phi (f)/2$ Dirichlet characters modulo $f>2$ with the…

We investigate various mean value problems involving order three primitive Dirichlet characters. In particular, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the first moment of central values of the Dirichlet L-functions associated to this family,…

Let $f$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for the full modular group and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo a prime $q$. Let $s_0=\sigma_0+it_0$ with $\frac{1}{2}\leq\sigma_0<1$. We improve the error term for the first moment of…

For finite Lie algebras, it is shown that characters can be defined first for Weyl orbits and then for irreducible representations. For $A_N$ Lie algebras, weight multiplicities can then be calculated by only stating that characters are…

Let $d$ be a real number, let $s$ be in a fixed compact set of the strip $1/2<\sigma<1$, and let $L(s, \chi)$ be the Dirichlet $L$-function. The hypothesis is that for any real number $d$ there exist 'many' real numbers $\tau$ such that the…
