Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ of weight $k>1$. In these notes, we follow Munshi to prove the Burgess bound $$ L(1/2+it,f)\ll_{f,\varepsilon} (1+|t|)^{1/2-1/8+\varepsilon}. $$
In this paper, we obtain upper bounds for the second moment of $L(u_j \times \phi, \frac{1}{2} + it_j)$, where $\phi$ is a Hecke Maass form for $SL(4, \mathbb Z)$, and $u_j$ is taken from an orthonormal basis of Hecke-Maass forms on $SL(2,…
In this note, we show that the values of integrals of the log-tangent function with respect to any square-integrable function on $\left[0 , \frac{\pi}{2} \right]$ may be determined by a finite or infinite sum involving the Riemann…
We study asymptotically the twisted second moment of the family of modular $L$-functions to a fixed modulus. As an application, we establish sharp lower bounds for all real $k \geq 0$ and sharp upper bounds for $k$ in the range $0 \leq k…
In this paper, we prove strong subconvexity bounds for self-dual $\mathrm{GL}(3)$ $L$-functions in the $t$-aspect and for $\mathrm{GL}(3)\times\mathrm{GL}(2)$ $L$-functions in the $\mathrm{GL}(2)$-spectral aspect. The bounds are strong in…
We establish sharp bounds for the second moment of symmetric-square $L$-functions attached to Hecke Maass cusp forms $u_j$ with spectral parameter $t_j$, where the second moment is a sum over $t_j$ in a short interval. At the central point…
Let $\mathfrak{q}>2$ be a prime number, $\chi$ a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $\mathfrak{q}$ and $f$ a primitive holomorphic cusp form or a Hecke-Maass cusp form of level $\mathfrak{q}$ and trivial nebentypus. We prove the subconvex…
Let $S_j(t)=\frac{1}{\pi}\arg L(1/2+it, u_j)$, where $u_j$ is an even Hecke--Maass cusp form for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with Laplacian eigenvalue $\lambda_j=\frac{1}{4}+t_j^2$. Without assuming the GRH, we establish an asymptotic formula…
Let $\pi S(t)$ denote the argument of the Riemann zeta-function at the point $s=\tfrac12+it$. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we give a new and simple proof of the sharpest known bound for $S(t)$. We discuss a generalization of this bound…
We examine the size of $E_{2}(T)$, the error term in the asymptotic formula for $\int_{0}^{T} |\zeta(1/2 + it)|^{4}\, dt$ where $\zeta(s)$ is the Riemann zeta-function. We make improvements in the powers of $\log T$ in the known bounds for…
Let $M,N$ be coprime square-free integers. Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form of level $N$ and $g$ be either a holomorphic or a Maa{\ss} form with level $M$. Using a large sieve inequality, we establish a bound of the form…
In this article, we show that $$ \left| N (T) - \frac{T}{ 2 \pi} \log \left( \frac{T}{2\pi e}\right) \right| \le 0.1038 \log T + 0.2573 \log\log T + 9.3675 $$ where $N(T)$ denotes the number of non-trivial zeros $\rho$, with $0<\Im(\rho)…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, Soundararajan showed that $\displaystyle{\int_{0}^{T} \vert \zeta(1/2 + it)\vert^{2k} \ll T(\log T)^{k^2 + \epsilon}}$ . His method was used by Chandee to obtain upper bounds for shifted moments of the…
We prove a Lindel\"{o}f-on-average upper bound for the second moment of the $L$-functions associated to a level 1 holomorphic cusp form, twisted along a coset of subgroup of the characters modulo $q^{2/3}$ (where $q = p^3$ for some odd…
In a previous paper with Schmid (math.NT/0402382) we considered the regularity of automorphic distributions for GL(2,R), and its connections to other topics in number theory and analysis. In this paper we turn to the higher rank setting,…
Several second moment and other integral evaluations for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$, and Lerch zeta function $\Phi(z,s,a)$ are presented. Additional corollaries that are obtained include…
This paper is the first in a series of two dedicated to the study of period relations of the type $$ L(\frac{1}{2}+k,\Pi)\;\in\;(2\pi i)^{d\cdot k}\Omega_{(-1)^k}{\mathbb Q}(\Pi),\quad \frac{1}{2}+k\;\text{critical}, $$ for certain…
We prove a Lindel\"of on average bound for the eighth moment of a family of $L$-functions attached to automorphic forms on $GL(2)$, the first time this has been accomplished. Previously, such a bound had been proven for the sixth moment for…
Following a strategy suggested by Michel--Venkatesh, we study the cubic moment of automorphic $L$-functions on $\operatorname{PGL}_2$ using regularized diagonal periods of products of Eisenstein series. Our main innovation is to produce…
