Let $F$ be a number field, $\pi$ either a unitary cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}(2)/F$ or a unitary Eisenstein series, and $\chi$ a unitary Hecke character of analytic conductor $C(\chi).$ We develop a regularized…
The purpose of this article is to generalize some results of Vatsal on studying the special values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions in an anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension. Let $g$ be a cuspidal Hilbert modular form of parallel weight…
We study the average of the product of the central values of two $L$-functions of modular forms $f$ and $g$ twisted by Dirichlet characters to a large prime modulus $q$. As our principal tools, we use spectral theory to develop bounds on…
Let $f,g,h$ be three normalized cusp newforms of weight $2k$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ which are eigenforms of Hecke operators. We use Ichino's period formula combined with a relative trace formula to show exact averages of $L(3k-1,f\times g\times…
The class of Dirichlet series associated with a periodic arithmetical function $f$ includes the Riemann zeta-function as well as Dirichlet $L$-functions to residue class characters. We study the value-distribution of these Dirichlet series…
The main purpose of this paper is to establish bounds on the second moment of $L\big(\tfrac{1}{2}+it,\chi\big)$, averaged over families of fixed order characters. A discrete version of the main result is also stated, from which zero-density…
Let K be a number field containing the n-th roots of unity for some n > 2. We prove a uniform subconvexity result for a family of double Dirichlet series built out of central values of Hecke L-functions of n-th order characters of K. The…
The first and second moments are established for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over the rational function field at the central point $s=\tfrac{1}{2}$ where the character $\chi$ is defined by the Legendre symbol for…
In this paper we study the mean values and zeroes of Dirichlet series of a view $\sum_{n}a_n n^{-s}$ with complex coefficients. There was introduced some class of Dirichlet series including such widely used series as the Riemann…
Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character whose conductor $q$ is a prime number. For the certain averages of values of $\log |L(s, \chi)|$ in $q$-aspect at a fixed $s=\sigma>1/2$, under Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we explain…
The Generalized Riemann Hypothesis implies that at least 50% of the central values $L \left( \frac{1}{2},\chi\right)$ are non-vanishing as $\chi$ ranges over primitive characters modulo $q$. We show that one may unconditionally go beyond…
We study non-vanishing of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point under the unlikely assumption that there exists an exceptional Dirichlet character. In particular we prove that if $\psi$ is a real primitive character modulo $D \in…
We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface with exponent $\frac{2}{3}+\varepsilon$, improving upon the long-standing exponent $\frac{25}{36}+\varepsilon$ of Soundararajan-Young (2013). This was previously known…
Let $\chi$ be a real primitive character to the modulus $D$. It is proved that $$ L(1,\chi)\gg (\log D)^{-2022} $$ where the implied constant is absolute and effectively computable. In the proof, the lower bound for $L(1,\chi)$ is first…
The Landau-Selberg-Delange method provides an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a multiplicative function whose average value on primes is a fixed complex number $v$. The shape of this asymptotic implies that $f$ can get very small…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the first moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over function fields at the central point $s=\tfrac{1}{2}$. Specifically, we compute the expected value of $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\chi)$ for an ensemble of…
We introduce a Dirichlet-series framework for studying the asymptotic behavior of generalized factorial functions defined by Legendre-type valuation formulas. Let $K$ be a number field and let $S$ be a finite set of prime ideals. For a…
