Let $\lambda(m)$ be the $m$th coefficient of a modular form $f(z)=\sum_{m\geq 1} \lambda(m)q^m$ of weight $k\geq 4$, let $p^n$ be a prime power, and let $\varepsilon>0$ be a small number. An approximate of the Atkin-Serre conjecture on the…

Let a and q be coprime natural numbers. In 1944 Linnik proved that the least prime in an arithmetic progression a mod q is less then C times q to the L. Since then the admissible value for the constant L has been improved several times,…

We prove an upper bound for the least prime in an irrational Beatty sequence. This result may be compared with Linnik's theorem on the least prime in an arithmetic progression.

In this paper, we obtain a lower bound for the number of primes $p\leq x$ such that $p-1$ is a sum of two squares and $p+2$ has a bounded number of prime factors. The proof uses the vector sieve framework, involving a semi-linear sieve and…

We consider small solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q}$, where $q=p^m$ is an odd prime power. Here, $\alpha_2$ is arbitrary but fixed and $\alpha_3$ is variable, and we assume…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with complex multiplication (CM), and for each prime $p$ of good reduction, let $a_E(p) = p + 1 - \#E(\mathbb{F}_p)$ denote the trace of Frobenius. By the Hasse bound, $a_E(p) = 2\sqrt{p} \cos…

We use character sum estimates to give a bound on the least square-full primitive root modulo a prime. Specifically, we show that there is a square-full primitive root mod $p$ less than $p^{2/3 + 3/(4 \sqrt{e})+ \epsilon}$, and we give some…

For $p\in (1,+\infty)$ and $b \in (0, +\infty]$ the $p$-torsion function with Robin boundary conditions associated to an arbitrary open set $\Om \subset \R^m$ satisfies formally the equation $-\Delta_p =1$ in $\Om$ and $|\nabla u|^{p-2}…

We improve on previous upper bounds for the $q$th norm of the partial sums of the Riemann zeta function on the half line when $0<q\leqslant 1$. In particular, we show that the 1-norm is bounded above by $(\log N)^{1/4}(\log\log N)^{1/4}$.

Let $\pi_{q,a}(x)$ denote the number of primes $\le x$ in the progression $a$ modulo $q$. We study subtle inequities in these functions, with $q$ fixed and variable $a$ (sometimes called 'prime race problems'). It is known unconditionally…

In this work we proof the following theorem which is, in addition to someother lemmas, our main result:\noindent \textbf{theorem}. Let$\ X=\{ ( x\_{1}\text{, }%t\_{1}) \text{, }( x\_{2}\text{, }t\_{2}) \text{, ..., }(x\_{n}\text{,…

In this paper we prove a lower bound result for extremely large values of $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi_p)$ with prime numbers $p\equiv 1\pmod 8$.

For relatively prime positive integers $u_0$ and $r$, we consider the least common multiple $L_n:=\mathrm{lcm}(u_0,u_1,\ldots, u_n)$ of the finite arithmetic progression $\{u_k:=u_0+kr\}_{k=0}^n$. We derive new lower bounds on $L_n$ which…

Let $\chi$ be a non-principal Dirichlet character modulo a prime $p$. Let $q_1<q_2$ denote the two smallest prime non-residues of $\chi$. We give explicit upper bounds on $q_2$ that improve upon all known results. We also provide a good…

Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions called as Dirichlet prime number theorem is a classical result in number theory. Atle Selberg\cite{Selberg} gave an elementary proof of this theorem. In this article we give an alternative…

We establish upper bounds for shifted moments of modular $L$-functions to a fixed prime level under the generalized Riemann hypothesis.

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be Chebyshev's prime-counting function for primes congruent to $a$ modulo $q$. We show that under the assumption of an…

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 consider Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ where $\chi$ is a real, non-principal character modulo $q$. Using Pintz's refinement of Page's theorem, we prove that for $q\geq 3$ the function $L(s, \chi)$ has at most one real zero $\beta$…
