We introduce a "resonance" method to produce large values of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ and large and small central values of $L$-functions.

Using the resonance method, we obtain refined estimates for joint extreme values of the Riemann zeta function at harmonic points, improving upon Levinson's 1972 results and providing new insight into the behavior of the Riemann zeta…

First we prove a modified version of the famous Lemma on the mean square estimate for exponential sums, by plugging the Cesaro weights in the right hand side of Gallagher's inequality. Then we apply it, in order to establish a mean value…

The main aim of this paper is to study an analogue of the generalized divisor function in a number field $\mathbb{K}$, namely, $\sigma_{\mathbb{K},\alpha}(n)$. The Dirichlet series associated to this function is…

Using Bombieri-Iwaniec method, we establish an improvement on both Gauss's Circle Problem and Dirichlet's Divisor Problem. More precisely, we derive a new estimate for the first spacing problem and combine it with Huxley's results on the…

We estimate asymptotically the fourth moment of the Riemann zeta-function twisted by a Dirichlet polynomial of length $T^{\frac14 - \varepsilon}$. Our work relies crucially on Watt's theorem on averages of Kloosterman fractions. In the…
