Let $\chi$ range over the $(p-1)/2$ even Dirichlet characters modulo a prime $p$ and denote by $\theta (x,\chi)$ the associated theta series. The asymptotic behaviour of the second and fourth moments proved by Louboutin and the author…
In this paper, we establish a new lower bound for the number of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ on the critical line within extremely short intervals. Specifically, for a sufficiently large prime $P$ and real number…
We prove that for $d \in \{ 2,3,5,7,13 \}$ and $K$ a quadratic (or rational) field of discriminant $D$ and Dirichlet character $\chi$, if a prime $p$ is large enough compared to $D$, there is a newform $f \in S_2(\Gamma_0(dp^2))$ with sign…
Let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n \geq 1}$ be the normalized Hecke eigenvalues of a given holomorphic cusp form $f$ of even weight $k$. We show under the assumption of the existence of Littlewood's type zero free region for $L(s, f, \chi)$, where…
Let $\omega$ be a primitive cubic root of unity. We study the non-vanishing problem for the family of Hecke $L$-functions associated to primitive cubic characters defined over the Eisenstein quadratic number field $\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$. We…
We study the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions in the family of all characters modulo $q$, with $Q/2 < q\leq Q$. For test functions whose Fourier transform is supported in $(-3/2, 3/2)$, we calculate this…
We study the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariant of Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of arbitrary order for odd primes $p$. From special values of the $p$-adic $L$-function and its derivative we derive several novel and easily computable criteria to…
We study zero-free regions of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ related to an approximation problem in the weighted Dirichlet space $D_{-2}$ which is known to be equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis since the work of B\'aez-Duarte. We…
Let $f$ be a zero-free analytic function on $\Re(s) \geq 1$. We prove that there exists an entire zero-free function $g$ and a Helson zeta-function $\zeta_\chi(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \chi(n) n^{-s}$, where $\chi(n)$ is a completely…
We prove a subconvexity bound for the central value L(1/2, chi) of a Dirichlet L-function of a character chi to a prime power modulus q=p^n of the form L(1/2, chi)\ll p^r * q^(theta+epsilon) with a fixed r and theta\approx 0.1645 < 1/6,…
Let $\pi$ and $\pi_0$ be unitary cuspidal automorphic representations. We prove log-free zero density estimates for Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions of the form $L(s,\pi\times\pi_0)$, where $\pi$ varies in a given family and $\pi_0$ is fixed.…
Let $q\ge3$ be an integer, $\chi$ denote a Dirichlet character modulo $q$, for any real number $a\ge 0$, we define the generalized Dirichlet $L$-functions $$ L(s,\chi,a)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\chi(n)}{(n+a)^s}, $$ where $s=\sigma+it$…
Let $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ automorphic form. Let $\chi=\chi_1\chi_2$ be a Dirichlet character with $\chi_i$ primitive modulo $M_i$. Suppose $M_1$, $M_2$ are primes such that $\sqrt{M_2}M^{4\delta}<M_1<M_2M^{-3\delta}$, where…
We compute asymptotic formulae for the mollified first and second moments for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions in the function field setting. As an application, we obtain non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the…
In a recent work arXiv:2004.14450, it has been shown that $L$-functions associated with arbitrary non-zero cusp forms take large values at the central critical point. The goal of this note is to derive analogous results for twists of…
We establish unconditional sharp upper bounds of the $k$-th moments of the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central point for $0 \leq k \leq 2$.
We give explicit and extended versions of some of Siegel's results. We extend the validity of Siegel's asymptotic development in the second quadrant to most of the third quadrant. We also give precise bounds of the error; this allows us to…
The purpose of this paper is to generalize our earlier work on the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function to linear combinations of logarithms of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions with constant real coefficients. Under the assumption of…
Let $\pi$ be a fixed Hecke--Maass cusp form for $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$ and $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $M$, which we assume to be a prime. Let $L(s,\pi\otimes \chi)$ be the $L$-function associated to $\pi\otimes…
We prove an explicit log-free zero density estimate and an explicit version of the zero-repulsion phenomenon of Deuring and Heilbronn for Hecke $L$-functions. In forthcoming work of the second author, these estimates will be used to…
