We give a lower bound for the maximum value of class group $L$-functions attached to $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-D})$ at the central point and show that this value is on average at least $$\exp\Bigg(\delta\sqrt{\frac{\log D \log \log \log D}{\log…
We establish weighted $L^p$-Fourier-extension estimates for $O(N-k) \times O(k)$-invariant functions defined on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{N-1}$, allowing for exponents $p$ below the Stein-Tomas critical exponent $\frac{2(N+1)}{N-1}$.…
We compute the O(1/M,m_s) heavy quark and SU(3) corrections to B_s -> D_s e nu form factors. In the limit of vanishing light quark mass, B_s -> D_s e nu form factors are given in terms of the the B -> D e nu form factors, the leading order…

Let $f$ be a weight $k$ holomorphic cusp form of level one, and let $S_f(n)$ denote the sum of the first $n$ Fourier coefficients of $f$. In analogy with Dirichlet's divisor problem, it is conjectured that $S_f(X) \ll X^{\frac{k-1}{2} +…
Our principal aim in the present article is to establish a uniform hybrid bound for individual values on the critical line of Hecke $L$-functions associated with cusp forms over the full modular group. This is rendered in the statement that…
Let $\tau$ denote the divisor function, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies some mild hypotheses. We establish the asymptotic formula or non-trivial upper bound for the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \leq…
In this article, we give $L^{\infty}$-norm bounds for the natural invariant norm of cusp forms of real weight $k$ and character $\chi$ for any cofinite Fuchsian subgroup $\Gamma\subset\mathrm{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{R})$. Using the representation…
Given a Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$ and its associated $L$-function, $L(s,\chi)$, we provide an explicit version of Burgess' estimate for $|L(s, \chi)|$. We use partial summation to provide bounds along the vertical lines $\Re{s}…
In this paper, we prove uniform bounds for $\rm GL (3)\times GL(2)$ $L$-functions in the $\rm GL(2)$ spectral aspect and the $t$ aspect by a delta method. More precisely, let $\phi$ be a Hecke--Maass cusp form for $\rm SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ and…
Let $F$ be a number field, and $\pi$ a regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_N(\mathbb{A}_F)$ of symplectic type. When $\pi$ is spherical at all primes $\mathfrak{p}|p$, we construct a $p$-adic $L$-function…
Under certain conditions, we give an estimate from above on the number of differential equations of order $r+1$ with prescribed regular singular points, prescribed exponents at singular points, and having a quasi-polynomial flag of…
We compute the normalization of the form factor entering the Bs --> Ds l nu decay amplitude by using numerical simulations of QCD on the lattice. From our study with Nf=2 dynamical light quarks, and by employing the maximally twisted Wilson…
Let f be an L^2-normalized Hecke--Maass cuspidal newform of level N and Laplace eigenvalue \lambda. It is shown that |f|_\infty <<_{\lambda, \epsilon} N^{-1/12 + \epsilon} for any \epsilon>0. The exponent is further improved in the case…
Let $\Gamma\subseteq\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ be a Fuchsian subgroup of the first kind acting on the upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$. Consider the $d$-dimensional space of cusp forms $\mathcal{S}_{k}^{\Gamma}$ of weight $2k$ for $\Gamma$,…
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 investigate the distribution of values of cubic Dirichlet $L$-functions at $s=1$. Following ideas of Granville and Soundararajan for quadratic $L$-functions, we model the distribution of $L(1,\chi)$ by the distribution of random Euler…
We study the limiting distributions of Birkhoff sums of a large class of cost functions (observables) evaluated along orbits, under the Gauss map, of rational numbers in $(0,1]$ ordered by denominators. We show convergence to a stable law…
Let $f$ be a newform of prime level $p$ with any central character $\chi\, (\bmod\, p)$, and let $g$ be a fixed cusp form or Eisenstein series for $\hbox{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. We prove the subconvexity bound: for any $\varepsilon>0$,…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the mean value of L-functions associated to cubic characters over F_q[t]. We solve this problem in the non-Kummer setting when q=2 (mod 3) and in the Kummer case when q=1 (mod 3). The proofs rely on…
