The asymptotic formula of the fourth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central value was predicted in a conjecture by J. B. Conrey, D. W. Farmer, J. P. Keating, M. O. Rubinstein, and N. C. Snaith, and the prime moduli case was proved…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be, as usual, Chebyshev's prime-counting function for the primes of the arithmetic progression $a$ (mod $q$) with $(a,q)=1$. For…

Finding the mean square averages of the Dirichlet $L$-functions over Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of same parity is an active problem in number theory. Here we explicitly evaluate such averages of $L(3,\chi)$ and $L(4,\chi)$ using certain…

Extending a result of Heath-Brown, we establish an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment of central values of Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to primitive characters $\pmod q$.

In the present paper, we prove that the generalized Riemann hypothesis for the Dirichlet $L$-function $L(s,\chi)$ is equivalent to the following bound: Let $k \geq 1$ and $\ell$ be positive real numbers. For any $\epsilon >0$, we have…

Let $q\ge3$ be an integer, $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $q$, and $L(s,\chi)$ denote the Dirichlet $L$-functions corresponding to $\chi$. In this paper, we show some special function series, and give some new identities for the…

For a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$, we define $M(\chi)=\max_{t } |\sum_{n \leq t} \chi(n)|$. In this paper, we study this quantity for characters of a fixed odd order $g\geq 3$. Our main result provides a further…

Fix $g$ a Hecke-Maass form for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $q$ be any large prime number. In the family of holomorphic newforms $f$ of level $q$ and fixed weight, we find the average value of the product $L(\half,g\times f)L(\half,f)$. From…

In this note, we prove in full generality a conjecture of Jacquet concerning the nonvanishing of the triple product L-function at the central point. Let $\kay$ be a number field and let $\pi_i$, $i=1$, 2, 3 be cuspidal automorphic…

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…

$L$ functions based on Dirichlet characters are natural generalizations of the Riemann $\zeta(s)$ function: they both have series representations and satisfy an Euler product representation, i.e. an infinite product taken over prime…

We consider Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ where $\chi$ is a non-principal quadratic character to the modulus $q$. We make explicit a result due to Pintz and Stephens by showing that $|L(1, \chi)|\leq \frac{1}{2}\log q$ for all $q\geq…

In this paper, we consider the family $\{L_j(s)\}_{j=1}^{\infty}$ of $L$-functions associated to an orthonormal basis $\{u_j\}_{j=1}^{\infty}$ of even Hecke-Maass forms for the modular group $SL(2, Z)$ with eigenvalues…

It is shown that any number of distinct primitive $\mathrm{GL}(1)$ and $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ $L$-functions can simultaneously attain large values on the critical line. This is an unconditional improvement of a general result due to Heap and Li…

The Euler product formula relates Dirichlet $L(s,\chi)$ functions to an infinite product over primes, and is known to be valid for $\Re (s) >1$, where it converges absolutely. We provide arguments that the formula is actually valid for $\Re…

In recent years a variant of the resonance method was developed which allowed to obtain improved $\Omega$-results for the Riemann zeta function along vertical lines in the critical strip. In the present paper we show how this method can be…

We study simultaneous non-vanishing of $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\di)$ and $L(\tfrac{1}{2},g\otimes \di)$, when $\di$ runs over an orthogonal basis of the space of Hecke-Maass cusp forms for $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ and $g$ is a fixed $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$…

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 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 prove that any $q$-automatic multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ either essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character, or vanishes on all sufficiently large primes. This confirms a strong form of a conjecture of J.…
