The Lauricella theory of multiple hypergeometric functions is used to shed some light on certain distributional properties of the mean of a Dirichlet process. This approach leads to several results, which are illustrated here. Among these…

We compute the expected value of Dirichlet $L$-functions defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ attached to cubic characters evaluated at an arbitrary $s \in (0,1)$. We find a transition term at the point $s=\frac{1}{3}$, reminiscent of the…

First we show that the abscissae of uniform and absolute convergence of Dirichlet series coincide in the case of $L$-functions from the Selberg class $\mathcal{S}$. We also study the latter abscissa inside the extended Selberg class,…

In this paper, we exhibit upper and lower bounds with explicit constants for some objects related to entire $L$-functions in the critical strip, under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. The examples include the entire Dirichlet…

Let $\chi$ a primitive character$\pmod q$ and consider the Dirichlet $L$-function $$L(s,\chi)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\chi(n)}{n^s}.$$ We give a new proof of an upper bound of Heath-Brown for $|L(s,\chi)|$ on the critical line $s=1/2+it$

Let $(X_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with distribution $\mathbb P(X_1=1)=\mathbb P(X_1=-1)=1/2$. Let $F(\sigma)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty X_nn^{-\sigma}$. We prove that the following holds almost surely…

We estimate large and small values of $|L(\rho',\chi)|$, where $\chi$ is a primitive character mod $q$ for $q>2$ and $\rho'$ runs over critical points of the Riemann zeta function in the right half of the one-line, that is, the points where…

We prove asymptotics for mollified first and second moments of subfamilies of Dirichlet $L$-functions given by shrinking angular restrictions on the root number. Using these moments, we prove that for even primitive characters with prime…

We present a new and simple proof of Selberg's central limit theorem, according to which $\log |\zeta(\tfrac 12 + it)|$ is approximately normally distributed with mean $0$ and variance $\tfrac 12 \log\log t$.

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…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be, as usual, Chebyshev's prime-counting function for the primes of the arithmetic progression $a$ (mod $q$) with $(a,q)=1$. For…

We assume the Riemann hypothesis to improve upon the rate of convergence of $(\log\log\log T)^2/\sqrt{\log\log T}$ in Selberg's central limit theorem for $\log|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ given by the author. We achieve a rate of convergence of…

Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we use Beurling-Selberg extremal functions to bound the mean and mean square of the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a large prime modulus $q$. As applications, we give alternative proofs of…

We find an asymptotic expansion of Selberg's central limit theorem for the Riemann zeta function on $\sigma = \frac12 + ( \log T)^{-\theta}$ and $t \in [T, 2T]$, where $ 0 < \theta < \frac12$ is a constant.

We look at the values of two Dirichlet $L$-functions at the Riemann zeros (or a horizontal shift of them). Off the critical line we show that for a positive proportion of these points the pairs of values of the two $L$-functions are…

In this series, we investigate the calculation of mean values of derivatives of Dirichlet $L$-functions in function fields using the analogue of the approximate functional equation and the Riemann Hypothesis for curves over finite fields.…

In this paper we show that for every Dirichlet $L$-function $L(s,\chi)$ and every $N\geq 2$ the Dirichlet series $L(s,\chi)+L(2s,\chi)+\cdots+L(Ns,\chi)$ have infinitely many zeros for $\sigma>1$. Moreover we show that for many general…

We show that if one can compute a little more than a particular moment for some family of L-functions, then one has upper bounds of the conjectured order of magnitude for all smaller (positive, real) moments and a one-sided central limit…

We study the $1$-level density and the pair correlation of zeros of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions in function fields, as we average over the ensemble $\mathcal{H}_{2g+1}$ of monic, square-free polynomials with coefficients in…

We investigate the approximation of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over function fields by truncations of their Euler products. We first establish representations for such $L$-functions as products over prime polynomials times products…
