We study $p$-adic $L$-functions $L_p(s,\chi)$ for Dirichlet characters $\chi$. We show that $L_p(s,\chi)$ has a Dirichlet series expansion for each regularization parameter $c$ that is prime to $p$ and the conductor of $\chi$. The expansion…

We prove new mean value theorems for primes in arithmetic progressions to moduli larger than $x^{1/2}$. Our main result shows that the primes are equidistributed for a fixed residue class over all moduli of size $x^{1/2+\delta}$ with a…

We are interested in determining the bound of the average of the degrees of the irreducible characters whose degrees are not divisible by some prime $p$ that guarantees a finite group $G$ of odd order is $p$-nilpotent. We find a bound that…

We study the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus. We establish sharp lower bounds for all real $k \geq 0$ and sharp upper bounds for $k$ in the range $0 \leq k \leq 1$.

We investigate one-dimensional families of diagonal forms, considering the evolution of the asymptotic formula and error term. We then discuss properties of the average asymptotic formula obtained. The subsequent second moment analysis…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form of integral weight $k \geq 3$ for $\Gamma_{0}(N)$ with nebentypus character $\psi$. Generalising work of Kohnen and Raghuram we construct a kernel function for the $L$-function $L(f,\chi,s)$ of $f$ twisted…

We compute the expected value of Dirichlet $L$-functions defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ attached to cubic characters evaluated at an arbitrary $s \in (0,1)$. We find a transition term at the point $s=\frac{1}{3}$, reminiscent of the…

Let N = 1 mod 4 be the negative of a prime, K=Q(sqrt{N}) and O_K its ring of integers. Let D be a prime ideal in O_K of prime norm congruent to 3 modulo 4. Under these assumptions, there exists Hecke characters $\psi_{\D}$ of K with…

Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet L-function associated to $\chi$. Using a new two-piece mollifier we show that $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\chi)\ne0$ for at least 34% of the characters in the…

We estimate the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of $L(s,\chi)$ with $\chi$ ranging over primitive Dirichlet characters of conductor $\in [Q/2,Q]$ and for test functions whose Fourier transform is supported in $[- 2 - 50/1093, 2 +…

Andrade and Keating computed the mean value of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions at the critical point, in the hyperelliptic ensemble over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Summing $L(1/2,\chi_D)$ over monic, square-free polynomials $D$…

We prove an approximate functional equation for the central value of the L-series attached to an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation of GL(m) over a number field with unitary central character. We investigate the decay rate of…

We consider Bernoulli distributions and their regularizations, which are measures on the $p$-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_p$. It is well known that their Mellin transform can be used to define $p$-adic $L$-functions. We show that for $p>2$ one…

We establish lower bounds for the $2k$-th moment of central values of the family of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions to a fixed prime modulus for all real $k<0$, assuming the non-vanishing of these $L$-values.

Let $(\operatorname{X},\operatorname{d},\mu)$ be a metric measure space with uniformly locally doubling measure $\mu$. Given $p \in (1,\infty)$, assume that $(\operatorname{X},\operatorname{d},\mu)$ supports a weak local $(1,p)$-Poincar\'e…

In this paper, we study the $k$-th moment of central values of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions of moduli $8p$, with $p$ ranging over odd primes. Assuming the truth of the generlized Riemann hypothesis, we establish sharp…

Consider central $L$-values of even weight elliptic or Hilbert modular forms $f$ twisted by ideal class characters $\chi$ of an imaginary quadratic extension $K$. Fixing $\chi$, and assuming $K$ is inert at each prime dividing the level,…

The divergent integral $\int_a^b f(x)(x-x_0)^{-n-1}\mathrm{d}x$, for $-\infty<a<x_0<b<\infty$ and $n=0, 1, 2, \dots$, is assigned, under certain conditions, the value equal to the simple average of the contour integrals $\int_{C^{\pm}}…

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 introduce a notion of quasi-lisse vertex algebras, which generalizes admissible affine vertex algebras. We show that the normalized character of an ordinary module over a quasi-lisse vertex operator algebra has a modular invariance…
