In this paper, we first find the distribution of nth power residues modulo a prime $p$ by analyzing sums involving Dirichlet characters. We then extend this method to characterize the distribution of powers in arbitrary finite fields.

In this paper, we investigate the conditional large values of the quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions near the central point $s=1/2$. When $\sigma $ closes to $1/2$ within a suitable range, we show that $L(\sigma, \chi_d)$ have the…

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…

We establish an asymptotic formula for the first moment and derive an upper bound for the second moment of L-functions associated with the complete family of primitive cubic Dirichlet characters defined over the Eisenstein field. Our…

We give a conjecture for the moments of the Dedekind zeta function of a Galois extension via the hybrid product method. The moments of the product of primes are evaluated using the Montgomery-Vaughan mean value theorem whilst for the…

We study asymptotically the twisted second moment of the family of modular $L$-functions to a fixed modulus. As an application, we establish sharp lower bounds for all real $k \geq 0$ and sharp upper bounds for $k$ in the range $0 \leq k…

Let $\Delta(x)$ be the error term of the Dirichlet divisor problem. In this paper, we establish an asymptotic formula of the seventh-power moment of $\Delta(x)$ and prove that \begin{equation*} \int_2^T \Delta^7(x)\mathrm{d}x=…

We consider the Rankin-Selberg L-functions associated with a fixed modular form of full level and holomorphic cuspidal newforms of large even weight, fixed level and fixed primitive nebentypus. We compute the second moment of this family in…

Albeit essential corrections are required both in his claim and in his argument, N.V. Kuznetsov observed in his Bombay article (*) of 1989 a highly interesting transformation formula for spectral sums of products of four values of modular…

The authors study the central values of L-functions in certain families; in particular they bound the sum of the cubes of these values.Contents:

We show that for at least $\frac{5}{13}$ of the primitive Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of large prime modulus, the central value $L(\frac{1}{2},\chi)$ does not vanish, improving on the previous best known result of $\frac{3}{8}$.

Dirichlet's theorem guarantees infinitely many primes in each reduced residue class modulo q, but the analytic mechanism underlying this separation is often difficult to visualize directly. In this article we construct simplified…

We produce a new proof of the reciprocity law for the twisted second moment of Dirichlet L-functions that was recently proved by Conrey. Our method is to analyze certain two-variable sums where the variables satisfy a linear congruence. We…

We evaluate the first three moments of central values of a family of qudratic Hecke $L$-functions in the Gaussian field with power saving error terms. In particular, we obtain asymptotic formulas for the first two moments with error terms…

Let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the Dirichlet L-function associated to $\chi$. Using a new two-piece mollifier we show that $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\chi)\ne0$ for at least 34% of the characters in the…

The main purpose of this paper is to establish bounds on the second moment of $L\big(\tfrac{1}{2}+it,\chi\big)$, averaged over families of fixed order characters. A discrete version of the main result is also stated, from which zero-density…

We present some monotonicity results for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to real primitive characters. We show in particular that these Dirichlet $L$-functions are far from being logarithmically completely monotonic. Also, we show that,…

In this paper, we study the mean value distributions of Dirichlet $L$-functions at positive integers. We give some explicit formulas for the mean values of products of two and three Dirichlet $L$-functions at positive integers weighted by…
