We study the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus. We establish sharp lower bounds for all real $k \geq 0$ and sharp upper bounds for $k$ in the range $0 \leq k \leq 1$.
Previously the authors proved subconvexity of Shintani's zeta function enumerating class numbers of binary cubic forms. Here we return to prove subconvexity of the Maass form twisted version.
Modifying a method of Jutila, we prove a t aspect subconvexity estimate for L-functions associated to primitive holomorphic cusp forms of arbitrary level that is of comparable strength to Good's bound for the full modular group, thus…
We prove a new (conditional) result towards the subconvexity problem for certain automorphic $L$-functions for $\mathrm{GL}_2 \times \mathrm{GL}_3$. This follows from the computation of new $\mathrm{SL}_2$-period integrals associated with…
We show that a pair of newforms $(f,g)$ can be uniquely determined by the product of the central $L$-values of their twists. To achieve our goal, we prove an asymptotic formula for the average of the product of the central values of two…
We consider negative moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over function fields. Summing over monic square-free polynomials of degree $2g+1$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the $k^{\text{th}}$ shifted…
We establish a smoothed asymptotic formula for the third moment of quadratic {D}irichlet $L$-functions at the central value. In addition to the main term, which is known, we prove the existence of a secondary term of size $x^{\frac{3}{4}}$.…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the fourth power mean of Dirichlet L-functions averaged over primitive characters to modulus q and over t\in [0,T] which is particularly effective when q \ge T. In this range the correct order of magnitude…
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.
In this paper we study the subconvexity problem for the Rankin-Selberg L-function and triple product L-function, allowing joint ramifications and conductor dropping range. We first extend the method of Michel-Venkatesh to reduce the bounds…
We compute an asymptotic formula for the twisted moment of GL(3)xGL(2) L-functions and their derivatives. As an application we prove that symmetric-square lifts of GL(2) Maass forms are uniquely determined by the central values of the…
In this paper, we provide an alternative proof of Chandee and Li's result on the second moment of $\mathrm{GL}_4 \times \mathrm{GL}_2$ special $L$-values. Our method is conceptually more direct as it neither detects the…
We investigate the reciprocity law, studied by Conrey~\cite{Con07} and Young~\cite{You11a}, for the second moment of Dirichlet L-functions twisted by $\chi(a)$ modulo a prime $q$. We show that the error term in this reciprocity law can be…
These are notes for four lectures given at the 2010 CIMPA Research School "Automorphic Forms and L-functions" in Weihai, China. The lectures focused on a Burgess-like subconvex bound for twisted Hilbert modular L-functions published jointly…
We obtain asymptotic formulas for the second and third moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions at the critical point, in the function field setting. We fix the ground field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and assume for simplicity that $q$ is a prime…
We compute the second moment of spinor $L$-functions at central points of Siegel modular forms on congruence subgroups of large prime level $N$ and give applications to non-vanishing.
This paper improves the upper bound for the exceptional zeroes of Dirichlet L-functions with even characters. The result is obtained by improving on explicit estimate for $L'(\sigma;\chi)$ for $\sigma$ close to unity, using a result on the…
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…
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.
Let $\pi'$ be a fixed unitary cuspidal representation of $\mathrm{GL}(n)/\mathbb{Q}.$ We establish a subconvex bound in the $t$-aspect $$ L(1/2+it,\pi\times\pi')\ll_{\pi,\pi',\varepsilon}(1+|t|)^{\frac{n(n+1)}{4}-\frac{1}{4\cdot…
