We investigate non-vanishing properties of $L(f,s)$ on the real line, when $f$ is a Hecke eigenform of half-integral weight $k+{1\over 2}$ on $\Gamma_0(4).$

Shifted convolution sums play a prominent r\^ole in analytic number theory. We investigate pointwise bounds, mean-square bounds, and average bounds for shifted convolution sums for Hecke eigenforms.

In this paper, we study the moments of central values of Hecke $L$-functions associated with quadratic characters in $\mathbb{Q}(i)$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$ with $\omega = exp(2\pi i/3)$ and establish some quantitative non-vanishing result…

In the present paper we study the central values of additive twists of Maa{\ss} forms $L$-series. In the case of the modular group, we show that the additive twists (when averaged over denominators) are asymptotically normally distributed.…

For a fixed SL(3, Z) Maass form g, we consider the family of L-functions L(g \times u_j, s) where u_j runs over the family of Hecke-Maass cusp forms on SL(2,Z). We obtain an estimate for the second moment of this family of L-functions at…

In the prequel, a sharp bound in the level aspect on the fourth moment of Hecke--Maa{\ss} forms with an inexplicit (in fact exponential) dependency on the eigenvalue was given. In this paper, we develop further the framework of explicit…

We compute the first moment of cubic Hecke $L$-functions over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$ evaluated at any $s$ inside the critical strip. The first moment for $s<\frac{1}{2}$ is particularly interesting, and we show there is a phase transition…

The analytic properties of the standard twist $F(s,\alpha)$, where $F(s)$ belongs to a wide class of $L$-functions, are of prime importance in describing the structure of the Selberg class. In this paper we present a deeper study of such…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and the Generalized Ramanujan Conjecture, we determine the order of the $2(k_1,\dots,k_r)$th moment of a product of distinct irreducible $L$-functions on the critical line. As a consequence, we…

In this note we investigate the existence of zeros of linear twists of $L$-functions outside of the critical strip. In particular, we show that the Lerch zeta function $L(\lambda,\alpha,s)$ has infinitely many zeros for $1<\sigma<1+\eta$,…

We derive a family of approximations for L-functions of Hecke cusp eigenforms, according to a recipe first described by Matiyasevich for the Riemann xi function. We show that these approximations converge to the true L-function and point…

In this paper, we prove the extreme values of $L$-functions at the central point for almost prime quadratic twists of an elliptic curve. As an application, we get the extreme values for the Tate--Shafarevich groups in the quadratic twist…

Eigenvalues in the essential spectrum of a weighted Sturm-Liouville operator are studied under the assumption that the weight function has one turning point. An abstract approach to the problem is given via a functional model for indefinite…

Let $f$ be a fixed holomorphic primitive cusp form of even weight $k$, level $r$ and trivial nebentypus $\chi_r$. Let $q$ be an odd prime with $(q,r)=1$ and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulus $q$ with $\chi\neq\chi_r$. In…

In this paper, we give an asymptotic formula for the second moment of Dirichlet twists of an automorphic $L$-function $L(s, \pi)$ on the critical line averaged over characters and conductors, where $\pi$ denotes an irreducible tempered…

In a recent important paper, Hoffstein and Hulse generalized the notion of Rankin-Selberg convolution $L$-functions by defining shifted convolution $L$-functions. We investigate symmetrized versions of their functions. Under certain mild…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the twisted first moment of Maass form symmetric square L-functions on the critical line and at the critical point. The error term is estimated uniformly with respect to all parameters.

We show that if one can compute a little more than a particular moment for some family of L-functions, then one has upper bounds of the conjectured order of magnitude for all smaller (positive, real) moments and a one-sided central limit…

We study the first moments of central values of Hecke $L$-functions associated with quadratic, cubic and quartic symbols to prime moduli. This also enables us to obtain results on first moments of central values of certain families of cubic…

We compute the critical $L$-values of some weight 3, 4, or 5 modular forms, by transforming them into integrals of the complete elliptic integral $K$. In doing so, we prove closed form formulas for some moments of $K'^3$. Many of our…
