An algorithm is given to efficiently compute $L$-functions with large conductor in a restricted range of the critical strip. Examples are included for about 21000 dihedral Galois representations with conductor near $10^7$. The data shows…
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…
We compute the expected value of Dirichlet $L$-functions defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ attached to cubic characters evaluated at an arbitrary $s \in (0,1)$. We find a transition term at the point $s=\frac{1}{3}$, reminiscent of the…
We use a relative trace formula on GL(2) to compute a sum of twisted modular L-functions anywhere in the critical strip, weighted by a Fourier coefficient and a Hecke eigenvalue. When the weight k or level N is sufficiently large, the sum…
We compute the moments of L-functions of symmetric powers of modular forms at the edge of the critical strip, twisted by the central value of the L-functions of modular forms. We show that, in the case of even powers, it is equivalent to…
We study the 2k-th power moment of Dirichlet L-functions L(s,\chi) at the centre of the critical strip (s=1/2), where the average is over all primitive characters \chi (mod q). We extend to this case the hybrid Euler-Hadamard product…
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:
This is a survey article written for a workshop on L-functions and random matrix theory at the Newton Institute in July, 2004. The goal is to give some insight into how well-distributed sets of matrices in classical groups arise from…
Let $f$ be a fixed (holomorphic or Maass) modular cusp form, with $L$-function $L(f,s)$. We describe an algorithm that computes the value $L(f,1/2+ iT)$ to any specified precision in time $O(1+|T|^{7/8})$.
In 2011, Gun, Murty and Rath studied non-vanishing and transcendental nature of special values of a varying class of $L$-functions and their derivatives. This led to a number of works by several authors in different set-ups including…
We give a number of theoretical and practical methods related to the computation of L-functions, both in the local case (counting points on varieties over finite fields, involving in particular a detailed study of Gauss and Jacobi sums),…
We consider the joint value distribution of Dirichlet $L$-functions in the critical strip $\frac{1}{2} < \sigma < 1$. We show that the values of distinct Dirichlet $L$-functions are dependent in the sense that they do not behave like…
The paper describes a method for calculating values of Riemann's Zeta function within the critical strip 0< {\sigma} <1 and on its boundary. The approach is based on the "Alternating Zeta function" {\eta}(s). The actual Riemann Zeta…
We study some problems on the distribution of values of symmetric power $L$-functions at $s=1$ in both aspects of level and weight: bounds of these values, extreme values, Montgomery-Vaughan's conjecture and distribution functions. Our…
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…
We present highlights of computations of the Riemann zeta function around large values and high zeros. The main new ingredient in these computations is an implementation of the second author's fast algorithm for numerically evaluating…
In this paper we give a formula for the central value of the completed $L$-function $L(s,Sym^{2} g\times f)$, where $f$ and $g$ are Hilbert newforms, by explicitly computing the local integrals appearing in the refined Gan-Gross-Prasad…
We compute the fourth moment of Dirichlet L-functions at the central point for prime moduli, with a power savings in the error term.
Let $L$ be a degree-$2$ $L$-function associated to a Maass cusp form. We explore an algorithm that evaluates $t$ values of $L$ on the critical line in time $O(t^{1+\varepsilon})$. We use this algorithm to rigorously compute an abundance of…
We develop approximations for the Riemann zeta function that enable high-precision computation within the critical strip and other vertical strips. These approximations combine the main sum of the Riemann-Siegel formula with a simple…
