We obtain a lower bound on the number of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field which vanish at the central point $s = 1/2$. This is in contrast with the situation over the rational numbers, where a conjecture of…

We give explicit upper and lower bounds for $N(T,\chi)$, the number of zeros of a Dirichlet $L$-function with character $\chi$ and height at most $T$. Suppose that $\chi$ has conductor $q>1$, and that $T\geq 5/7$. If…

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…

We prove several results on the distribution of values of $L$-functions at the edge of the critical strip, by constructing and studying a large class of random Euler products. Among new applications, we study families of symmetric power…

We study the conditional upper bounds and extreme values of derivatives of the Riemann zeta function and Dirichlet $L$-functions near the 1-line. Let $\ell$ be a fixed natural number. We show that, if $|\sigma-1|\ll1/\log_2t$, then…

We prove an upper bound on the density of zeros very close to the critical line of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of modulus $q$ at height $T$. To do this, we derive an asymptotic for the twisted second moment of Dirichlet…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, it is known that at least half of the central values $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi)$ are non-vanishing as $\chi$ ranges over primitive characters modulo $q$. Unconditionally, this is known on average over…

We use a method developed by Bj\"orklund and Gorodnik to show a central limit theorem (as $T$ tends to $\infty$) for the counting functions $\# \left( \Lambda \cap \Omega_T \right)$ where $\Lambda$ ranges over the space $Y_{2d}$ of…

A famous conjecture of Keating and Snaith asserts that central values of $L$-functions in a given family admit a log-normal distribution with a prescribed mean and variance depending on the symmetry type of the family. Based on a recent…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $q$, let $L(s, \chi)$ be the attached Dirichlet $L$-function, and let $L^\prime(s, \chi)$ denotes its derivative with respect to the complex variable $s$. The main purpose of this paper is to give…
