We prove an asymptotic formula for the eighth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$, over all moduli $q\leq Q$ and with a short average on the critical line. Previously the same result was…
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 estimate large and small values of $|L(\rho',\chi)|$, where $\chi$ is a primitive character mod $q$ for $q>2$ and $\rho'$ runs over critical points of the Riemann zeta function in the right half of the one-line, that is, the points where…
We prove an asymptotic for the eighth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$, over all moduli $q\leq Q$ and with a short average on the critical line, conditionally on GRH. We derive the…
We extend to Dirichlet L-functions associated with arbitrary primitive characters a range of objects and properties -- including Eisenstein series and period functions -- that were originally introduced and studied by Lewis and Zagier…
In this paper we prove that the Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(1/2+ix,\chi_q)$, where $\chi_q$ is uniformly random Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $x\in \mathbb{R}$, converges to a random Schwartz distribution $\zeta_{\mathrm{rand}}$, which…
We study the distribution of large (and small) values of several families of $L$-functions on a line $\text{Re(s)}=\sigma$ where $1/2<\sigma<1$. We consider the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the $t$-aspect, Dirichlet $L$-functions in…
In this paper, we exhibit upper and lower bounds with explicit constants for some objects related to entire $L$-functions in the critical strip, under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. The examples include the entire Dirichlet…
Hybrid Euler-Hadamard products have previously been studied for the Riemann zeta function on its critical line and for Dirichlet L-functions in the context of the calculation of moments and connections with Random Matrix Theory. According…
In this article, we study the second moment of cubic Dirichlet L-functions at the central point $s=1/2$ over the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$, where $q$ is a power of an odd prime satisfying $q \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$. Our result…
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…
For a positive integer $q\not\equiv 2 \pmod 4$, this work considers the fourth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over both $t\in [0,T]$ and primitive characters to modulus $q$. An asymptotic formula with a power saving from both…
For Dirichlet $L$-functions in $\mathbb{F}_q [T]$ we obtain a hybrid Euler-Hadamard product formula. We make a splitting conjecture, namely that the $2k$-th moment of the Dirichlet $L$-functions at $\frac{1}{2}$, averaged over primitive…
In the present paper, we study large values of Dirichlet $L$- functions inside the critical strip. For every $1/2<\sigma<1$, we show that for $q$ sufficiently large, there exists a non-principal character $\chi$ modulo $q$ and a constant…
We obtain (conditional and unconditional) results on large values of $L$-functions $L(s,\chi)$ in the critical strip $1/2 \leq \Re s \leq 1$ when the character $\chi$ runs through a thin subgroup of all characters modulo an integer $q$.…
We report on some extensive computations and experiments concerning the moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the critical point. We computed the values of $L(1/2,\chi_d)$ for $- 5\times 10^{10} < d < 1.3 \times 10^{10}$ in order…
We establish sharp upper bounds for shifted moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. Our result is then used to prove bounds for moments of quadratic Dirichlet character sums.
We obtain asymptotic formulas for the second and third moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions at the critical point, in the function field setting. We fix the ground field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and assume for simplicity that $q$ is a prime…
We extend the work of Fouvry, Kowalski and Michel on correlation between Hecke eigenvalues of modular forms and algebraic trace functions in order to establish an asymptotic formula for a generalized cubic moment of modular L-functions at…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the second moment of a product of two Dirichlet L-functions on the critical line, which has a power saving in the error term and which is uniform with respect to the involved Dirichlet characters. As…
