In this paper we obtain a new fully explicit constant for the P\'olya-Vinogradov inequality for squarefree modulus. Given a primitive character $\chi$ to squarefree modulus $q$, we prove the following upper bound \begin{align*} \left|…

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…

Let $\chi$ a primitive character$\pmod q$ and consider the Dirichlet $L$-function $$L(s,\chi)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\chi(n)}{n^s}.$$ We give a new proof of an upper bound of Heath-Brown for $|L(s,\chi)|$ on the critical line $s=1/2+it$

We prove an asymptotic formula for the fourth power mean of Dirichlet L-functions averaged over primitive characters to modulus q and over t\in [0,T] which is particularly effective when q \ge T. In this range the correct order of magnitude…

Let $\mathcal{P}_{\Omega,tA}$ denoted the Pauli operator on a bounded open region $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions and magnetic potential $A$ scaled by some $t>0$. Assume that the corresponding magnetic field…

We establish zero-free regions tapering as an inverse power of the analytic conductor for Rankin-Selberg L-functions on GL(n) x GL(n'). Such zero-free regions are equivalent to commensurate lower bounds on the edge of the critical strip,…

A standard zero free region is obtained for Rankin Selberg L-functions $L(s, f\times \widetilde{f})$ where $f$ is an almost everywhere tempered Maass form on $GL(n)$ and $f$ is not necessarily self dual. The method is based on the theory of…

In this paper we prove a new zero-free region for the partition function of the hard-core model, that is, the independence polynomials of graphs with largest degree $\Delta$. This new domain contains the half disk $$D=\left\{ \lambda \in…

We develop a discrete spectral framework for Dirichlet $L$-functions that reveals a combinatorial structure underlying their special values and connects this to their zeros. Our approach approximates the classical Dirichlet series by finite…

Let $\mathcal{L}(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n n^{-s}$ be an $L$-function in the Selberg class, and $q_{\mathcal{L}}$ its conductor. Let $\ell_0(\mathcal{L})$ be the constant term of the Laurent expansion of $\mathcal{L}'/\mathcal{L}$ at…

Fix a Dirichlet character $\chi$ and a cuspidal GL$(2)$ eigenform $\phi$ with relatively prime conductors. Then we show that there are infinitely many cusp forms $\pi$ on GL$(3)$ such that $L(1/2, \pi \times \chi)$ and $L(1/2, \pi \times…

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 $0 \leq k \leq 1$.

Let $q\ge 2$ and $N\ge 1$ be integers. W. Zhang (2008) has shown that for any fixed $\epsilon> 0$, and $q^{\epsilon} \le N \le q^{1/2 -\epsilon}$, $$ \sum_{\chi \ne \chi_0} |\sum_{n=1}^N \chi(n)|^2 |L(1, \chi)|^2 = (1 + o(1)) \alpha_q q N…

The Euler product formula relates Dirichlet $L(s,\chi)$ functions to an infinite product over primes, and is known to be valid for $\Re (s) >1$, where it converges absolutely. We provide arguments that the formula is actually valid for $\Re…

We investigate in this paper the vanishing at $s=1$ of the twisted $L$-functions of elliptic curves $E$ defined over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ (where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a finite field of $q$ elements and characteristic…

In this paper we extend to the function field setting the heuristics formerly developed by Conrey, Farmer, Keating, Rubinstein and Snaith, for the integral moments of $L$-functions. We also adapt to the function setting the heuristics first…

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.

Given $c,$ a positive integer, we give an explicit formula and an asymptotic formula for \[ \sum\chi(c)|L(1,\,\chi)|^{2}, \] where $\chi$ is the non-trivial Dirichlet character mod $f$ with $f>c.$

We derive explicit upper bounds for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(\sigma + it)$ on the lines $\sigma = 1 - k/(2^k - 2)$ for integer $k \ge 4$. This is used to show that the zeta-function has no zeroes in the region $$\sigma > 1 -…

We deal with negative square moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions. Summing over characters modulo $q$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the negative second moment of $L(1,\chi)$ involving conductors. As an application, we give the improved…
