In 2008, Soundararajan showed that there exists a normalized Hecke eigenform $f$ of weight $k$ and level one such that $$ L(1/2, f ) ~\geq~ \exp\Bigg( (1 + o(1)) \sqrt{\frac{2\log k}{\log\log k} }\Bigg) $$ for sufficiently large $k \equiv 0…
We prove a Weyl-exponent subconvex bound for any Dirichlet $L$-function of cube-free conductor. We also show a bound of the same strength for certain $L$-functions of self-dual $\mathrm{GL}_2$ automorphic forms that arise as twists of forms…
Let $\pi_1, \pi_2, \pi_3$ be three cuspidal automorphic representations for the group ${\rm SL}(2, \Bbb{Z})$, where $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$ are fixed and $\pi_3$ has large conductor. We prove a subconvex bound for $L(1/2, \pi_1 \otimes \pi_2…
For $f$ a primitive holomorphic cusp form of even weight $k \geq 4$, level $N$, and $\chi$ a Dirichlet character mod $Q$ with $(Q,N)=1$, we establish a new hybrid subconvexity bound for $L(1/2 + it, f_\chi)$, which improves upon all known…
Let $p$ be a prime. Let $f$ be a holomorphic modular form of level $p$ with trivial nebentypus. We prove the bound $L\left(\text{sym}^2f, \frac{1}{2} + it\right) \ll_{f,\epsilon} p^{1/2+\epsilon}t^{3/4-1/12 + \epsilon}$. This bound is…

We prove a sub-convex estimate for the sup-norm of $L^2$-normalized holomorphic modular forms of weight $k$ on the upper half plane, with respect to the unit group of a quaternion division algebra over $\mf Q$. More precisely we show that…
Let $\phi$ be a fixed Hecke--Maass form for $\mathrm{SL}_3 (\mathbb{Z})$ and $u_j $ traverse an orthonormal basis of Hecke--Maass forms for $\mathrm{SL}_2 (\mathbb{Z}) $. Let $1/4+t_j^2$ be the Laplace eigenvalue of $u_j $. In this paper,…
Conditionally on the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain bounds of the correct order of magnitude for the 2k-th moment of the Riemann zeta-function for all positive real k < 2.181. This provides for the first time an upper bound of the correct…
We treat an unbalanced shifted convolution sum of Fourier coefficients of cusp forms. As a consequence, we obtain an upper bound for correlation of three Hecke eigenvalues of holomorphic cusp forms $\sum_{H\leq h\leq…
We introduce an alternate set of generators for the Hecka algebra, and give an explicit formula for the action of these operators on Fourier coefficients. With this, we compute the eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on average Siegel…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we show that for $k>0$ $$ \frac{1}{T}\text{meas}\Big\{t\in [T,2T]:|\zeta(1/2+{\rm i} t)|>(\log T)^k\Big\}\leq C_k \frac{(\log T)^{-k^2}}{\sqrt{\log\log T}}, $$ where $C_k=\exp(e^{ck})$ for some absolute…
We prove a new upper bound for the $L^4$-norm of a holomorphic Hecke newform of large fixed weight and prime level $q\to \infty$. This is achieved by proving a sharp mean value estimate for a related $L$-function on GL(6)
We prove the q-aspect analogue of Heath-Brown's result on the twelfth power moment of the Riemann zeta function for Dirichlet L-functions to odd prime power moduli. Our results rely on the p-adic method of stationary phase for sums of…
