In this note we define L-functions of finite graphs and study the particular case of finite cycles in the spirit of a previous paper that studied spectral zeta functions of graphs. The main result is a suggestive equivalence between an…

Linearly independent Dirichlet L-functions satisfying the same Riemann-type of functional equation have been supposed for long time to possess off critical line non trivial zeros. We are taking a closer look into this problem and into its…

In this paper, we use the Weyl-bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions to derive zero-density estimates for $L$-functions associated to families of fixed-order Dirichlet characters. The results improve on previous bounds given by the author when…

We prove that for at least $\frac{7}{19}$ of the primitive Dirichlet characters $\chi$ with large general modulus, the central value $L(\frac12,\chi)$ is non-vanishing.

We consider a certain class of multiplicative functions $f: \mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb C$ and study the distribution of zeros of Dirichlet polynomials $F_N(s)= \sum_{n\le N} f(n)n^{-s}$ corresponding to these functions. We prove that the…

We study the conjecture that $\sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)=o(x)$ for any primitive Dirichlet character $\chi \pmod q$ with $x\geq q^\epsilon$, which is known to be true if the Riemann Hypothesis holds for $L(s,\chi)$. We show that it holds under…

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…

An automorphic self dual L-function has the super-positivity property if all derivatives of the completed L-function at the central point $s=1/2$ are non-negative and all derivatives at a real point $s > 1/2$ are positive. In this paper we…

Let E be an elliptic curve and \rho an Artin representation, both defined over the rational numbers. Let p be a prime at which E has good reduction. We prove that there exists an infinite set of Dirichlet characters \chi, ramified only at…

The Linear Independence hypothesis (LI), which states roughly that the imaginary parts of the critical zeros of Dirichlet L-functions are linearly independent over the rationals, is known to have interesting consequences in the study of…

We establish the first explicit form of the Vinogradov--Korobov zero-free region for Dirichlet $L$-functions.

Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we rediscover and sharpen some of the best known results regarding the distribution of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions. This builds upon earlier work of Omar, which relies on the…

We study the nonvanishing of twists of automorphic L-functions at the centre of the critical strip. Given a primitive character \chi modulo D satisfying some technical conditions, we prove that the twisted L-functions L(f.\chi,s) do not…

Zeros of the Riemann zeta function and its derivatives have been studied by many mathematicians. Among, the number of zeros and the distribution of the real part of non-real zeros of the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function have been…

We obtain a lower bound on the number of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field which vanish at the central point $s = 1/2$. This is in contrast with the situation over the rational numbers, where a conjecture of…

In this article, we obtain the analytic continuation of the multiple shifted Lucas zeta function, multiple Lucas $L$-function associated to Dirichlet characters and additive characters. We then compute a complete list of exact singularities…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we show that a certain vertical distribution of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function is equivalent to the generalized Riemann hypothesis for Dirichlet $L$-functions. Furthermore, under both the…

Let $L(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{+\infty}\dfrac{a(n)}{n^s}$ be a Dirichlet series were $a(n)$ is a bounded completely multiplicative function. We prove that if $L(s)$ extends to a holomorphic function on the open half space $\Re s >1-\delta$,…

We show, for any $q\ge 3$ and distinct reduced residues $a,b \pmod q$, the existence of certain hypothetical sets of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions lying off the critical line implies that $\pi(x;q,a)<\pi(x;q,b)$ for a set of real $x$ of…

Let $\pi$ be an irreducible, cuspidal automorphic representation of $GL_n(\mathbb{A}_\mathbb{Q})$ ($n\geq 3$), which is tempered only for $n=3$. Let $s$ be a complex number such that $\Re(s)\notin \left[1/n, 1-1/n\right]$ if $n\neq 4$;…
