We describe a general method to obtain weak subconvexity bounds for many classes of $L$-functions. This has applications to a conjecture of Rudnick and Sarnak for the mass equidistribution of Hecke eigenforms (see arxiv.org:math/0809.1636).

Let $Z(t)=\chi^{-1/2}(1/2+it)\zeta(1/2+it)=e^{i\theta(t)}\zeta(1/2+it)$ be Hardy's function and $g(n)$ be the $n$-th Gram points defined by $\theta(g(n))=\pi n$. Titchmarsh proved that $\sum_{n \leq N} Z(g(2n)) =2N+O(N^{3/4}\log^{3/4}N) $…

This paper extends the work done by Titchmarsh on Gram's Law (an attempt to locate the zeroes of the zeta-function on the critical line). Herewith it is shown that a positive proportion of Gram intervals violate Gram's Law; and also that a…

Some Titchmarsh results following Gram's law are improved in this paper.

In this work we derive a functional equation in terms of the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function along with definite integrals in terms of the incomplete gamma and Hurwitz-Lerch zeta functions. The method used in these derivations is contour…

In this paper various analytic techniques are com- bined in order to study the average of a product of a Hecke L- function and a symmetric square L-function at the central point in the weight aspect. The evaluation of the second main term…

We establish a central limit theorem for the central values of Dirichlet $L$-functions with respect to a weighted measure on the set of primitive characters modulo $q$ as $q \rightarrow \infty$. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis…

As one of the asymptotic formulas for the zeta-function, Hardy and Littlewood gave asymptotic formulas called the approximate functional equation. In 2003, R. Garunk\v{s}tis, A. Laurin\v{c}ikas, and J. Steuding (in [1]) proved the…

We prove thin-thick decompositions, for the class of Hardy martingales and thereby strengthen its square function characterization. We apply the underlying method to several classical martingale inequalities, for which we give new proofs .

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic number field and let $L(s,\xi_{\ell})$ denote the Hecke $L$-function to an angular character $\xi_{\ell}$ with frequency $\ell$. We detect values of $\log |L(\tfrac12,\xi_{\ell})|$ with size at least…

Some problems involving the classical Hardy function $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it)\bigl(\chi(1/2+it)\bigr)^{-1/2}, \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s) $$ are discussed. In particular we discuss the odd moments of $Z(t)$, the distribution of its…

Under GRH, we establish a version of Duke's short-sum theorem for entire Artin $L$-functions. This yields corresponding bounds for residues of Dedekind zeta functions. All numerical constants in this work are explicit.

We investigate the distribution of positive and negative values of Hardy's function $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it){\chi(1/2+it)}^{-1/2}, \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s). $$ In particular we prove that $$ \mu\bigl(I_{+}(T,T)\bigr) \;\gg T\;…

In this paper, we study lower order terms of the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of quadratic Hecke L-functions in the Gaussian field. Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, our result is valid for even test functions whose…

We use the martingale convergence method to get the weak convergence theorem on general functionals of partial sums of independent heavy-tailed random variables. The limiting process is the stochastic integral driven by $\alpha-$stable…

In recent works we have introduced the parameter space $\mathcal{Z}_N$ of $A$-variations of the Hardy $Z$-function, $Z(t)$, whose elements are functions of the form \begin{equation} \label{eq:Z-sections} Z_N(t ; \overline{a} ) =…

In our previous paper on this topic, we introduced the notion of k-Hessian measure associated with a continuous k-convex function in a domain \Om in Euclidean n-space, k=1,...,n, and proved a weak continuity result with respect to local…

We present a theory of reduction of binary quadratic forms with coefficients in Z[lambda], where lambda is the minimal translation in a Hecke group. We generalize from the modular group Gamma(1) = SL(2,Z) to the Hecke groups and make…

This paper describes a practical methodology for computing the Hardy function Z(t), using just O(((t/epsilon)^(1/3))*(log(t))^(2+o(1)))) standard computational operations, to a tolerance of epsilon in the relative error. The methodology is…

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…
