Let D be a square-free polynomial in F_q[t], where q is odd, and let G be a genus of definite ternary lattices over F_q[t] of determinant D. In this paper we give self-contained and relatively elementary proofs of Siegel's formulas for the…
For each primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$, a hypothesis ${\rm GRH}^\dagger[\chi]$ is formulated in terms of zeros of the associated $L$-function $L(s,\chi)$. It is shown that for any such character, ${\rm GRH}^\dagger[\chi]$ is…
In this paper, over imaginary quadratic fields, we consider the family of $L$-functions $L (s, f)$ for an orthonormal basis of spherical Hecke--Maass forms $f$ with Archimedean parameter $t_f$. We establish asymptotic formulae for the…
A famous conjecture of Artin asserts that any integer $a$ that is neither $-1$ nor a square should be a primitive root (mod $p$) for a positive proportion of primes $p$. Moreover, using a heuristic argument, Artin guessed an explicit…
We derive strong and effective lower bounds for the class number h(q) of the imaginary quadratic field Q(\sqrt{-q}), conditionally subject to the existence of many small (subnormal) gaps between zeros of the L-function associated with a…
We study the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions of all even primitive characters of conductor at most $Q$, where $Q$ is a parameter tending to $\infty$. For an arbitrary positive integer $k$, we approximate the twisted $2k$th moment of this…
We describe two new algorithms for the efficient and rigorous computation of Dirichlet L-functions and their use to verify the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis for all such L-functions associated with primitive characters of modulus…
In 1927, E. Artin conjectured that all non-square integers $a\neq -1$ are a primitive root of $\mathbb{F}_p$ for infinitely many primes $p$. In 1967, Hooley showed that this conjecture follows from the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH).…
Hecke studies the distribution of fractional parts of quadratic irrationals with Fourier expansion of Dirichlet series. This method is generalized by Behnke and Ash-Friedberg, to study the distribution of the number of totally positive…
In previous work it was shown that if certain series based on sums over primes of non-principal Dirichlet characters have a conjectured random walk behavior, then the Euler product formula for its $L$-function is valid to the right of the…
The author reviews results and conjectures of Selberg on a class of Dirichlet series functions which share properties with the Riemann zeta function, and he relates this work to the theory of Artin L-functions.
We introduce a new method for studying murmurations, based on random matrix theory. With this method, we exhibit murmurations or similar phenomena: assuming ratios conjectures, for elliptic curves ordered by height, quadratic twists of a…
We show that the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis for all Dirichlet L-functions is a consequence of certain conjectural properties of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Conversely, we prove that the zeros of $\zeta(s)$ satisfy those…
We establish the two-dimensional asymptotic distributions of the logarithm and logarithmic derivative of $L$-functions associated with a family of cubic Hecke characters. A crucial ingredient in the proof of our main result is an…
Schinzel's Hypothesis H is a general conjecture in number theory on prime values of polynomials that generalizes, e.g., the twin prime conjecture and Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progression. We prove an arithmetic analog of…
In this paper, we compute and verify the positivity of the Li coefficients for the Dirichlet $L$-functions using an arithmetic formula established in Omar and Mazhouda, J. Number Theory 125 (2007) no.1, 50-58; J. Number Theory 130 (2010)…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide explicit upper bounds for moduli of $\log{\mathcal{L}(s)}$ and $\mathcal{L}'(s)/\mathcal{L}(s)$ in the neighbourhood of the 1-line when $\mathcal{L}(s)$ are the Riemann, Dirichlet and…
The transformations of the sum identities for generalized harmonic and oscillatory numbers, obtained earlier in our recent report [1], enable us to derive the new identities expressed in terms of the corresponding square roots of x. At…
Extending a result of Heath-Brown, we establish an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment of central values of Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to primitive characters $\pmod q$.
The Dirichlet divisor problem is used as a model to give a conjecture concerning the conditional convergence of the Dirichlet series of an L-function.
