We consider the Rankin-Selberg L-functions associated with a fixed modular form of full level and holomorphic cuspidal newforms of large even weight, fixed level and fixed primitive nebentypus. We compute the second moment of this family in…
We obtain the formula for the twisted harmonic second moment of the $L$-functions associated with primitive Hecke eigenforms of weight 2. A consequence of our mean value theorem is reminiscent of recent results of Conrey and Young on the…
Let $\lambda_{\phi}(n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke holomorphic or Hecke--Maass cusp form on ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies two mild hypotheses. We establish a non-trivial upper…
We establish the first moment bound $$ \sum_{\varphi} L(\varphi \otimes \varphi \otimes \Psi, \tfrac{1}{2}) \ll_{\varepsilon} p^{5/4+\varepsilon} $$ for triple product $L$-functions, where $\Psi$ is a fixed Hecke-Maass form on…
This is a sequel to our previous articles \cite{Kw23, Kw23a+}. In this work, we apply recent techniques that fall under the banner of `Period Reciprocity' to study moments of $GL(3)\times GL(2)$ $L$-functions in the non-archimedean aspects,…
Mean values of Witten $L$-functions in the "character" aspect are investigated. After giving a general formula for mean values with the first and the second power, we explicitly calculate the cubic moment for $SU(2)$.
Let $F$ denote a number field and let $\mathfrak{q}\subset O_F$ traverse a sequence of prime ideals with norm $N(\mathfrak{q}) \to \infty$ and for each $\mathfrak{q}$, let $\chi \in \widehat{F^{\times}\setminus \mathbb{A}^\times}$ be a…
We prove a lower bound of the correct order of magnitude in the conductor aspect for small rational moments of Drichlet $L$-functions. Such bounds require new techniques, which is visible from the relationship to non-vanishing results for…
We prove that the fourth moment of holomorphic Hecke cusp forms is bounded provided that the Riemann Hypothesis holds for an appropriate degree 8 L-function. We accomplish this using Watson's formula, which translates the question in hand…
The $2 q$-th pseudomoment $\Psi_{2q,\alpha}(x)$ of the $\alpha$-th power of the Riemann zeta function is defined to be the $2 q$-th moment of the partial sum up to $x$ of $\zeta^\alpha$ on the critical line. Using probabilistic methods of…
Let $\lambda_i (n)$ $i= 1, 2, 3$ denote the normalised Fourier coefficients of holomorphic eigenform or Maass cusp form. In this paper we shall consider the sum: \[ S:= \frac{1}{H}\sum_{h\leq H} V\left( \frac{h}{H}\right)\sum_{n\leq N}…
This paper deals with coefficient estimates for close-to-convex functions with argument $\beta$ ($-\pi/2<\beta<\pi/2$). By using Herglotz representation formula, sharp bounds of coefficients are obtained. In particluar, we solve the problem…
We prove sub-convex bounds on the fourth moment of Hecke-Laplace eigenforms on $S^3$. As a corollary, we get a bound on the sup-norm on an individual eigenform, which constitutes an improvement over what is achievable through employing the…
In this paper, we establish estimates for the expectation and variance of the mixed $(2,2)$-moment of two Hecke eigenforms of distinct weights. Our results yield applications to triple product $L$-functions. The proofs are based on moments…
We prove an asymptotic formula with a power saving error term for the (pure or mixed) second moment of central values of L-functions of any two (possibly equal) fixed cusp forms f, g twisted by all primitive characters modulo q, valid for…
In this paper, we solve the Rankin--Selberg problem. That is, we break the well known Rankin--Selberg's bound on the error term of the second moment of Fourier coefficients of a $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ cusp form (both holomorphic and Maass), which…
We prove a subconvexity bound for the central value L(1/2, chi) of a Dirichlet L-function of a character chi to a prime power modulus q=p^n of the form L(1/2, chi)\ll p^r * q^(theta+epsilon) with a fixed r and theta\approx 0.1645 < 1/6,…
We consider the problem of estimating small ball probabilities $\mathbb P\{f(G) \leqslant \delta \mathbb Ef(G)\}$ for sub-additive,positively homogeneous functions $f$ with respect to the Gaussian measure. We establish estimates that depend…
We give a general lower bound on the frequency of sign changes in the real coefficients of L-functions of the Selberg class. We in particular recover existing results in the cases of GL(2) and GL(3), and obtain new bounds in the case of…
We calculate certain "wide moments" of central values of Rankin--Selberg $L$-functions $L(\pi\otimes \Omega, 1/2)$ where $\pi$ is a cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_2$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $\Omega$ is a Hecke character…
