We study wide moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions using analytic properties of the Lerch zeta function. Among other things we obtain an asymptotic expansion of wide moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions (with arbitrary twists) extending results…

The problem of finding upper bounds for L-functions at the edge of the critical strip has a long and interesting history. Here, the situation for classical L-functions such as Dirichlet L-functions is relatively well understood. The reason…

Let $k$ be a positive real number, and let $M_k(q)$ be the sum of $|L(\tfrac12,\chi)|^{2k}$ over all non-principal characters to a given modulus $q$. We prove that $M_k(q)\ll_k \phi(q)(\log q)^{k^2}$ whenever $k$ is the reciprocal $n^{-1}$…

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 $f>c.$

For a fairly general family of L-functions, we survey the known consequences of the existence of asymptotic formulas with power-sawing error term for the (twisted) first and second moments of the central values in the family. We then…

$L$ functions based on Dirichlet characters are natural generalizations of the Riemann $\zeta(s)$ function: they both have series representations and satisfy an Euler product representation, i.e. an infinite product taken over prime…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the imaginary parts of zeros near the real axis of Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to the quadratic characters $\chi_{p}(\cdot)=(\cdot |p)$ with $p$ a prime number. Assuming the…

In this paper, we show that Riemann hypothesis (concerning zeros of the zeta function in the critical strip) is equivalent to the analytic continuation of Euler products obtained by restricting the Euler zeta product to suitable subsets…

In 2016, Cramer, Ducas, Peikert and, Regev proposed an efficient algorithm for recovering short generators of principal ideals in $q$-th cyclotomic fields with $q$ being a prime power. In this paper, we improve their analysis of the dual…

The moments of central values of families of L-functions have recently attracted much attention and, with the work of Keating and Snaith, there are now precise conjectures for their limiting values. We develop a simple method to establish…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, it is known that at least half of the central values $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi)$ are non-vanishing as $\chi$ ranges over primitive characters modulo $q$. Unconditionally, this is known on average over…

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…

The pseudomoments of the Riemann zeta function, denoted $\mathcal{M}_k(N)$, are defined as the $2k$th integral moments of the $N$th partial sum of $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line. We improve the upper and lower bounds for the constants in…

The $2$kth pseudomoments of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ are, following Conrey and Gamburd, the $2k$th integral moments of the partial sums of $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line. For fixed $k>1/2$, these moments are known to grow like…

We consider the asymptotic behavior of the mean square of truncations of the Dirichlet series of $\zeta(s)^k$. We discuss the connections of this problem with that of the variance of the divisor function in short intervals and in arithmetic…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain an upper bound for the moments of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. Our bound is nearly as sharp as the conjectured asymptotic formulae for these moments. The method extends to moments…

The Laurent Stieltjes constants $\gamma_n(\chi)$ are, up to a trivial coefficient, the coefficients of the Laurent expansion of the usual Dirichlet $L$-series: when $\chi$ is non principal, $(-1)^n\gamma_n(\chi)$ is simply the value of the…

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…

We revisit a representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ expressed in terms of normalised incomplete gamma functions given by the author and S. Cang in Methods Appl. Anal. {\bf 4} (1997) 449--470. Use of the uniform asymptotics…

A new reciprocity formula for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to an arbitrary primitive Dirichlet character of prime modulus $q$ is established. We find an identity relating the fourth moment of individual Dirichlet $L$-functions in the…
