Let $[x]$ be the integral part of $x$, $n>1$ be a positive integer and $\chi_n$ denote the trivial Dirichlet character modulo $n$. In this paper, we use an identity established by Z. H. Sun to get congruences of…

We consider moments of higher powers of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. In a restricted region, we give their asymptotic behavior by using de la Bret\`{e}che's multivariable Tauberian theorem. We also give the lower bound of the…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and $E(T)$ the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/2\pi)$ with $\Delta^*(x) = -\Delta(x) +…

We investigate the mean value of the first moment of primitive cubic $L$-functions over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ in the non-Kummer setting. Specifically, we study the sum \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{\chi\ primitive\ cubic\\…

Mean values of Witten $L$-functions in the "character" aspect are investigated. After giving a general formula for mean values with the first and the second power, we explicitly calculate the cubic moment for $SU(2)$.

We investigate in this paper the vanishing at $s=1$ of the twisted $L$-functions of elliptic curves $E$ defined over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ (where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a finite field of $q$ elements and characteristic…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and a pair correlation conjecture for the zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we establish the truth of a conjecture of Montgomery (in its corrected form stated by Friedlander and Granville) on the…

The aim of this paper is to improve the upper bound for the exceptional zeroes $\beta_0$ of Dirichlet $L$-functions. We do this by improving on explicit estimate for $L'(\sigma, \chi)$ for $\sigma$ close to unity.

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the mean value of L-functions associated to cubic characters over F_q[t]. We solve this problem in the non-Kummer setting when q=2 (mod 3) and in the Kummer case when q=1 (mod 3). The proofs rely on…

Euler's totient function, $\varphi(n)$, which counts how many of $0,1,\dots,n-1$ are coprime to $n$, has an explicit asymptotic lower bound of $n/\log \log n$, modulo some constant. In this note, we generalise $\varphi$; given an…

Strings propagating along surfaces with Dirichlet boundaries are studied in this paper. Such strings were originally proposed as a possible candidate for the QCD string. Our approach is different from previous ones and is simple and general…

We consider the value distribution of logarithms of symmetric power L-functions associated with newforms of even weight and prime power level. In the symmetric square case, under certain plausible analytical conditions, we prove that…

We investigate the mean value of the first moment of primitive quartic $L$-functions over $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ in the non-Kummer setting. Specifically, we study the sum \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{\chi\ primitive\ quartic\\ \chi^2…

The conjectures of Deligne, Be\u\i linson, and Bloch-Kato assert that there should be relations between the arithmetic of algebro-geometric objects and the special values of their $L$-functions. We make a numerical study for symmetric power…

An algorithm to compute Dirichlet $L$-functions for many quadratic characters is derived. The algorithm is optimal (up to logarithmic factors) provided that the conductors of the characters under consideration span a dyadic window.

We evaluate the average of cubic and quartic Dirichlet character sums with the modulus going up to a size comparable to the length of the individual sums. This generalizes a result of Conrey, Farmer and Soundararajan on quadratic Dirichlet…

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 $A(m_1,...,m_{n-1})$.

In a recent work arXiv:2004.14450, it has been shown that $L$-functions associated with arbitrary non-zero cusp forms take large values at the central critical point. The goal of this note is to derive analogous results for twists of…

Double $L$-functions are the generalization of Dirichlet $L$-functions to two variable functions. We investigate the order estimation of double $L$-functions, and give upper bounds which are explicit in conductor aspect.

In this short, we study sums of the shape $\sum_{n\leqslant x}{f([x/n])}/{[x/n]},$ where $f$ is Euler totient function $\varphi$, Dedekind function $\Psi$, sum-of-divisors function $\sigma$ or the alternating sum-of-divisors function…
