Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we evaluate sharp upper bounds for the shifted moments of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions with moduli 8p, where p ranges over odd primes. We then apply this result to prove bounds for the moments…
In this article, we investigate the conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. We prove an Omega result for quadratic character sums under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis.
We study the distribution of closed geodesics for the modular surface. We improve the error term in the prime geodesic theorem, and obtain results on prime geodesics in very short intervals conditionally on the generalized Riemann…
Let $H = N^{\theta}, \theta > 2/3$ and $k \geq 1$. We obtain estimates for the following exponential sum over primes in short intervals: \[ \sum_{N < n \leq N+H} \Lambda(n) e(g(n)), \] where $g$ is a polynomial of degree $k$. As a…
The aim of this article is to investigate how various Riemann Hypotheses would follow only from properties of the prime numbers. To this end, we consider two classes of $L$-functions, namely, non-principal Dirichlet and those based on cusp…
Assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, we prove a sharp upper bound on moments of shifted Dirichlet $L$-functions. We use this to obtain conditional upper bounds on high moments of theta functions. Both of these results strengthen…
In this note, we generalise two results on prime numbers in short intervals. The first result is Ingham's theorem which connects the zero-density estimates with short intervals where the prime number theorem holds, and the second result is…
In this article, we prove an "equivalence" between two higher even moments of primes in short intervals under Riemann Hypothesis. We also provide numerical evidence in support of these asymptotic formulas.
We look at upper bounds for the count of certain primes related to the Fermat numbers $F_n=2^{2^n}+1$ called elite primes. We first note an oversight in a result of Krizek, Luca and Somer and give the corrected, slightly weaker upper bound.…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we prove that the interval $[N, N + H]$ contains an integer which is a sum of a prime and two squares of primes provided that $H \ge C (\log N)^{4}$, where $C > 0$ is an effective constant.
Let $\Lambda(n)$ be the von Mangoldt function, $x$ real and $2\leq y \leq x$. This paper improves the estimate on the exponential sum over primes in short intervals \[ S_k(x,y;\alpha) = \sum_{x< n \leq x+y} \Lambda(n) e\left( n^k \alpha…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we derive explicit bounds for the error terms in short interval analogues of the prime number theorem and Mertens' theorems using a smoothing argument. Our results improve upon previous bounds in both…
Let $p$ be a large prime number and $g$ be any integer of multiplicative order $T$ modulo $p$. We obtain a new estimate of the double exponential sum $$ S=\sum_{n\in \mathcal{N}}\left|\sum_{m\in \mathcal{M} }e_p(an g^{m})\right|, \quad \gcd…
We establish sharp lower bounds for shifted (with two shifts) moments of Dirichlet $L$-function of fixed modulus under the generalized Riemann hypothesis.
The main objective of this article is to study the exponential sums associated to Fourier coefficients of modular forms supported at numbers having a fixed set of prime factors. This is achieved by establishing an improvement on…
Assuming the generalized Lindel\"of hypothesis for Dirichlet $L$-functions, we establish that the least prime $p\equiv a\pmod{q}$ satisfies $p\ll_{\varepsilon} q^{2+\varepsilon}$. This achieves a bound that nearly matches the classical…
We show under the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis that for every $\delta>0$, almost every prime $q$ in $[Q,2Q]$ has the expected of prime primitive roots in the interval $[x,x+x^{\frac{1}2+\delta}]$ provided $Q$ is not more than…
We consider a problem of P. Erdos, A. M. Odlyzko and A. Sarkozy about the representation of residue classes modulo m by products of two not too large primes. While it seems that even the Extended Riemann Hypothesis is not powerful enough to…
An old open problem in number theory is whether Chebotarev density theorem holds in short intervals. More precisely, given a Galois extension $E$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ with Galois group $G$, a conjugacy class $C$ in $G$ and an $1\geq…
We prove a totally explicit bound for short sums of certain non-negative arithmetic functions satisfying a general growth condition, and apply this result to derive two explicit estimates for the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley $\Delta$-function in short…
