We study the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions by applying the $L$-functions Ratios Conjecture. We observe a transition in the main term as was predicted by the Katz-Sarnak heuristic as well as in the…
Given a large, square-free, smooth conductor, we establish the non-vanishing of the central values for at least $35.9\%$ of the primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions.
In this paper, we prove the simultaneous non-vanishing of four Dirichlet $L$-functions at any point on the critical line. More precisely, let $\chi_1,\ldots,\chi_4$ be even Dirichlet characters modulo $D_1,\ldots, D_4$ respectively, where…
Let $\pi$ be a unitary cuspidal automorphic representation of $\text{GL}_{4}(\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$. Let $f \geq 1$ be given. We show that there exists infinitely many primitive even (resp. odd) Dirichlet characters $\chi$ with conductor…
We study the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to real primitive characters of conductor at most $X$. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we give an asymptotic expansion of this quantity in…
We show that for a positive proportion of fundamental discriminants d, L(1/2,chi_d) != 0. Here chi_d is the primitive quadratic Dirichlet character of conductor d.
Arising from the factorizations of Dedekind zeta-functions of cubic fields, we obtain Artin $L$-functions of certain two-dimensional representations. In this paper, we study the value-distribution of such Artin $L$-functions for families of…
We investigate the consequences of natural conjectures of Montgomery type on the non-vanishing of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point. We first justify these conjectures using probabilistic arguments. We then show using a result of…
In this paper, we study moments of the central values of quartic Dirichlet $L$-functions and establish quantitative non-vanishing result for these $L$-values.
In a recent work arXiv:2004.14450, it has been shown that $L$-functions associated with arbitrary non-zero cusp forms take large values at the central critical point. The goal of this note is to derive analogous results for twists of…
We consider families of number fields of degree 4 whose normal closures over $\mathbb{Q}$ have Galois group isomorphic to $D_4$, the symmetries of a square. To any such field $L$, one can associate the Artin conductor of the corresponding…
The density conjecture of Katz and Sarnak predicts that, for natural families of L-functions, the distribution of zeros lying near the real axis is governed by a group of symmetry. In the case of the universal family of automorphic forms of…
We prove asymptotics for mollified first and second moments of subfamilies of Dirichlet $L$-functions given by shrinking angular restrictions on the root number. Using these moments, we prove that for even primitive characters with prime…
We study the one-level density for families of L-functions associated with cubic Dirichlet characters defined over the Eisenstein field. We show that the family of $L$-functions associated with the cubic residue symbols $\chi_n$ with $n$…
Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet L-function associated to $\chi$. Using a new two-piece mollifier we show that $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\chi)\ne0$ for at least 34% of the characters in the…
We define new objects called 'horizontal $p$-adic $L$-functions' associated to $L$-values of twists of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ by characters of $p$-power order and conductor prime to $p$. We study the fundamental properties of…
To any quartic $D_4$ extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, one can associate the Artin conductor of a 2-dimensional irreducible representation of the group. Alt\u{u}g, Shankar, Varma, and Wilson determined the asymptotic number of such fields when…
We give a geometric criterion for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to cyclic characters over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ to vanish at the central point $s=1/2$. The idea is based on the observation that vanishing at the…
Let $\pi$ be an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation of a quasi-split unitary group ${\rm U}_{\mathfrak n}$ defined over a number field $F$. Under the assumption that $\pi$ has a generic global Arthur parameter, we establish the…
In Iwaniec-Sarnak [IS] the percentages of nonvanishing of central values of families of GL_2 automorphic L-functions was investigated. In this paper we examine the distribution of zeros which are at or neat s=1/2 (that is the central point)…
