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.

We prove that the Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with Dirichlet characters in $\mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ are universal. That is, given a modulus of high enough degree, $L$-functions with characters to this modulus can be found that approximate…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic number field and let $L(s,\xi_{\ell})$ denote the Hecke $L$-function to an angular character $\xi_{\ell}$ with frequency $\ell$. We detect values of $\log |L(\tfrac12,\xi_{\ell})|$ with size at least…

We compute the expected value of Dirichlet $L$-functions defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ attached to cubic characters evaluated at an arbitrary $s \in (0,1)$. We find a transition term at the point $s=\frac{1}{3}$, reminiscent of the…

In this paper we address the problem of computing asymptotic formulae for the expected values and second moments of central values of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1/2,\chi_{8d}\otimes\psi)$ when $\psi$ is a fixed even primitive…

We prove a Voronoi formula for coefficients of a large class of $L$-functions including Maass cusp forms, Rankin-Selberg convolutions, and certain isobaric sums. Our proof is based on the functional equations of $L$-functions twisted by…

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.

In this rather computational paper, we determine certain representation numbers of ideals in real quadratic number fields explicitly in order to obtain a representation of the associated Dirichlet series in terms of Dirichlet L-functions…

In this paper, we study the $k$-th moment of central values of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions of moduli $8p$, with $p$ ranging over odd primes. Assuming the truth of the generlized Riemann hypothesis, we establish sharp…

We study non-vanishing of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point under the unlikely assumption that there exists an exceptional Dirichlet character. In particular we prove that if $\psi$ is a real primitive character modulo $D \in…

We prove a formula, with power savings, for the sixth moment of Dirichlet L-functions averaged over moduli $q$, over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$, and over the critical line. Our formula agrees precisely with predictions motivated…

We study the first moment of primitive quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis and the generalized Lindel\"of hypothesis, we obtain an asymptotic formula at the central point with error $O(X^{1/4+\epsilon})$, and…

We establish an analogue of a conjecture of Balasubramanian, Conrey, and Heath-Brown for the family of all Dirichlet characters with conductor up to $Q$. This forms another application of our work in developing an asymptotic large sieve.

We show that for at least 3/8 of the primitive Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of large prime modulus, the central value $L(1/2,\chi)$ does not vanish.

In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. We prove some Omega results of quadratic character sums under the assumption of the generalized Riemnn hypothesis, which are as sharp as…

Double $L$-functions are the generalization of Dirichlet $L$-functions to two variable functions. We investigate the order estimation of double $L$-functions, and give upper bounds which are explicit in conductor aspect.

In this series, we investigate the calculation of mean values of derivatives of Dirichlet $L$-functions in function fields using the analogue of the approximate functional equation and the Riemann Hypothesis for curves over finite fields.…

First we show that the abscissae of uniform and absolute convergence of Dirichlet series coincide in the case of $L$-functions from the Selberg class $\mathcal{S}$. We also study the latter abscissa inside the extended Selberg class,…

We establish unconditional sharp upper bounds of the $k$-th moments of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point for $0 \leq k \leq 2$.

Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis and a bound for the negative discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function (resp. Dirichlet $L$-functions), we prove the existence of a logarithmic limiting distribution for the normalized partial…
