For the shifted convolution sum $$ D_h(X)=\sum_{m=1}^\infty\lambda_1(1,m)\lambda_2(m+h)V(\frac{m}{X}) $$ where $\lambda_1(1,m)$ are the Fourier coefficients of a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ Maass form $\pi_1$, and $\lambda_2(m)$ are those of a…
Hoffstein and Hulse defined the shifted convolution series of two cusp forms by "shifting" the usual Rankin-Selberg convolution L-series by a parameter h. We use the theory of harmonic Maass forms to study the behavior in h-aspect of…
We exploit the idea that the character of an irreducible finite dimensional $\mathfrak{gl}_n$-module is the sum of certain exponents of integer points in a Gelfand-Tsetlin polytope and can thus be calculated via Brion's theorem. In order to…
We obtain the exact value of the Hausdorff dimension of the set of coefficients of Gauss sums which for a given $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$ achieve the order at least $N^{\alpha}$ for infinitely many sum lengths $N$. For Weyl sums with polynomials…
Let $f$ be a fixed self-contragradient Hecke-Maass form for $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$, and $u$ an even Hecke-Maass form for $SL(2,\mathbb Z)$ with Laplace eigenvalue $1/4+k^2$, $k>0$. A subconvexity bound $O\big(k^{4/3+\varepsilon}\big)$ in the…
In this note, we prove that given a Hecke-Maass cusp form $f$ for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and a sufficiently large integer $q=q_1q_2$ with $q_j\asymp \sqrt{q}$ being prime numbers for $j=1,2$, there exists a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$…
We derive upper bounds for probabilities of the form $P(g(\mathbf{X})\geq t)$ using the southwest boundary (recently introduced in our previous work) $\partial_{\mathrm{SW}} Q(g^{-1}[t,\infty))$, where $Q$ is a reflection to the first…
Let $N$ be a large prime and let $c > 1/4$. We prove that if $f$ is a $\pm 1$-valued completely multiplicative function, such that the exponential sums $$ S_f(a) := \sum_{1 \leq n < N} f(n) e(na/N), \quad a \pmod{N} $$ satisfy the ``Gauss…
In this paper, we calculate the Fourier coefficients of the paramodular twist of a Siegel modular form of paramodular level $N$ by a nontrivial quadratic Dirichlet character mod $p$ for $p$ a prime not dividing $N$. As an application, these…
We use character sum estimates to give a bound on the least square-full primitive root modulo a prime. Specifically, we show that there is a square-full primitive root mod $p$ less than $p^{2/3 + 3/(4 \sqrt{e})+ \epsilon}$, and we give some…
We calculate the one-level density of thin subfamilies of a family of Hecke cuspforms formed by twisting the forms in a smaller family by a character. The result gives support up to 1, conditional on GRH, and we also find several of the…
For a cuspidal Hecke eigenform $F$ for $Sp_n(Z)$ and a Dirichlet character $\chi$ let $L(s,F,\chi,St)$ be the standard $L$-function of $F$ twisted by $\chi$. Boecherer showed the boundedness of denominators of the algebraic part of…
We consider the problem of $\Omega$ bounds for the partial sums of a modified character, \textit{i.e.}, a completely multiplicative function $f$ such that $f(p)=\chi(p)$ for all but a finite number of primes $p$, where $\chi$ is a primitive…
Let f be a cusp form for SL(3, Z) associated with a generalized principal series representation of minimal weight d, spectral parameter r and associated L-function L(s, f). For $r \asymp d \asymp T$ the subconvexity bound $L(1/2, f) \ll…
We prove strong hybrid subconvex bounds simultaneously in the $q$ and $t$ aspects for $L$-functions of selfdual $\mathrm{GL}_3$ cusp forms twisted by primitive Dirichlet characters. We additionally prove analogous hybrid subconvex bounds…
We prove a Lindel\"{o}f-on-average upper bound for the second moment of the $L$-functions associated to a level 1 holomorphic cusp form, twisted along a coset of subgroup of the characters modulo $q^{2/3}$ (where $q = p^3$ for some odd…
Fix $g$ a self-dual Hecke-Maass form for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $f$ be a holomorphic newform of prime level $q$ and fixed weight. Conditional on a lower bound for a short sum of squares of Fourier coefficients of $f$, we prove a…
We give lower bounds, in terms of the Euler characteristic, for the $L^2$-norm of the Weyl curvature of closed Riemannian 4-manifolds. The same bounds were obtained by Gursky, in the case of positive scalar curvature metrics.
Let $F$ be a $G L(3)$ Hecke-Maass cusp form of prime level $P_1$ and let $f$ be a $G L(2)$ Hecke-Maass cuspform of prime level $P_2$. In this article, we will prove a subconvex bound for the $G L(3) \times G L(2)$ Rankin-Selberg…
In this paper, for a given Dirichlet character mod $N$ with $4\nmid N$, we give a lower bound of order $\sqrt{s/\log(s)}$ for the dimension of the $\mathbb{Q}(e^{2i\pi/N})$-vector space spanned by the values of its $L$-function at integers…
