The statistics of low-lying zeros of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions were conjectured by Katz and Sarnak to be given by the scaling limit of eigenvalues from the unitary symplectic ensemble. The n-level densities were found to be in…
We show that if the zeros of an automorphic $L$-function are weighted by the central value of the $L$-function or a quadratic imaginary base change, then for certain families of holomorphic GL(2) newforms, it has the effect of changing the…
Using the ratios conjectures as introduced by Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer, we obtain closed formulas for the one-level density for two families of L-functions attached to elliptic curves. From those closed formulas, we can determine the…
Recently Katz and Sarnak introduced the idea of a symmetry group attached to a family of L-functions, and they gave strong evidence that the symmetry group governs many properties of the distribution of zeros of the L-functions. We consider…
The Density Conjecture of Katz and Sarnak associates a classical compact group to each reasonable family of $L$-functions. Under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, Rubinstein computed the $n$-level density of low-lying…
In the function field setting with a fixed characteristic, it was proven by the second and third authors that the values $\log \big|L\big(\frac12, \chi_D\big)\big|$ as $D$ varies over monic and square-free polynomials are asymptotically…
Previous work by Rubinstein and Gao computed the n-level densities for families of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions for test functions where the sum of the supports of the Fourier transforms is at most 2, and showed agreement with random…
Given an $L$-function, one of the most important questions concerns its vanishing at the central point; for example, the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture states that the order of vanishing there of an elliptic curve $L$-function equals…
The Katz-Sarnak Density Conjecture states that the behavior of zeros of a family of $L$-functions near the central point (as the conductors tend to zero) agrees with the behavior of eigenvalues near 1 of a classical compact group (as the…
We study the $n^{\rm th}$ centered moments of the $1$-level density for the low-lying zeros of $L$-functions attached to holomorphic cuspidal newforms of large prime level and fixed weight. Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypotheses, we…
We study the local statistics of zeros of $L$-functions attached to Artin-Scheier curves over finite fields. We consider three families of Artin-Schreier $L$-functions: the ordinary, polynomial (the $p$-rank 0 stratum) and odd-polynomial…
This is the first installment in a series of papers devoted to examining certain aspects of the asymptotic value distribution and distribution of zeros manifested by members of a broad class of linear combinations of L-functions in the…
A number of mathematical methods have been shown to model the zeroes of $L$-functions with remarkable success, including the Ratios Conjecture and Random Matrix Theory. In order to understand the structure of convolutions of families of…
We study a new orthogonal family of $L$-functions associated with holomorphic Hecke newforms of level $q$, averaged over $q \asymp Q$. To illustrate our methods, we prove a one level density result for this family with the support of the…
In this paper we examine $n$-correlation for either the eigenvalues of a unitary group of random matrices or for the zeros of a unitary family of $L$-functions in the important situation when the correlations are detected via test functions…
We describe a general method to obtain weak subconvexity bounds for many classes of $L$-functions. This has applications to a conjecture of Rudnick and Sarnak for the mass equidistribution of Hecke eigenforms (see arxiv.org:math/0809.1636).
The Katz-Sarnak philosophy states that statistics of zeros of $L$-function families near the central point as the conductors tend to infinity agree with those of eigenvalues of random matrix ensembles as the matrix size tends to infinity.…
Generalizing previous work of Iwaniec, Luo, and Sarnak (2000), we use information from one-level density theorems to estimate the proportion of non-vanishing of $L$-functions in a family at a low-lying height on the critical line (measured…
We show that if one can compute a little more than a particular moment for some family of L-functions, then one has upper bounds of the conjectured order of magnitude for all smaller (positive, real) moments and a one-sided central limit…
We consider the value distribution of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line, weighted by the local statistics of zeta zeros. We show that, with appropriate normalization, it satisfies a complex Central Limit…
