We study simultaneous non-vanishing of $L(\tfrac{1}{2},\di)$ and $L(\tfrac{1}{2},g\otimes \di)$, when $\di$ runs over an orthogonal basis of the space of Hecke-Maass cusp forms for $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ and $g$ is a fixed $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$…
We define L-functions for meromorphic modular forms that are regular at cusps, and use them to: (i) find new relationships between Hurwitz class numbers and traces of singular moduli, (ii) establish predictions from the physics of…
Inspired by Lehmer's conjecture on the nonvanishing of the Ramanujan $\tau$-function, one may ask whether an odd integer $\alpha$ can be equal to $\tau(n)$ or any coefficient of a newform $f(z)$. Balakrishnan, Craig, Ono, and Tsai used the…
In this article, we prove non-vanishing results for $L$-functions associated to holomorphic cusp forms of half-integral weight on average (over an orthogonal basis of Hecke eigenforms). This extends a result of W. Kohnen to forms of…
Let $K = \mathbb Q(\sqrt{-q})$, where $q$ is a prime congruent to $3$ modulo $4$. Let $A = A(q)$ denote the Gross curve over the Hilbert class field $H$ of $K$. In this note we use Magma to calculate the values $L(E/H, 1)$ for all such…
We prove algebraicity of critical values of certain Spin $L$-functions. More precisely, our results concern $L(s, \pi \otimes \chi, Spin)$ for cuspidal automorphic representations $\pi$ associated to a holomorphic Siegel eigenform on…
Let $L(s,f)$ be an $L$-function associated to a primitive (holomorphic or Maass) cusp form $f$ on GL(2) over $\mathbb{Q}$. Combining mean-value estimates of Montgomery and Vaughan with a method of Ramachandra, we prove a formula for the…
Suppose that $\alpha$ is an action of the semigroup $\mathbb{N}^{2}$ on a $C^*$-algebra $A$ by endomorphisms. Let $A\times_{\alpha}^{\textrm{piso}} \mathbb{N}^{2}$ be the associated partial-isometric crossed product. By applying an earlier…
The main objective of this article is to compute a first moment for product of Dirichlet and twisted self-dual $GL(3)$ $L$-functions. We discuss the possible simultaneous non vanishing at the central point. We use properties of symmetric…
Considering the family of $L$-functions $\{L(s,f)\}_{f \in H_k}$ where $H_k$ is the set of weight $k$ Hecke-eigen cusp forms for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$, we prove a zero density estimate near the central point, valid as the weight $k \to…
Harris and Venkatesh made a conjecture relating the derived Hecke operators and the adjoint motivic cohomology in the setting of weight one modular forms. This conjecture was proved under some conditions in the dihedral case by…
Analytic continuation and functional equation of a Dirichlet series constructed from two (not necessarily cuspidal) holomorphic modular forms is discussed, where either weights of the modular forms or characters are not necessarily equal to…
In this paper, we prove Deligne's conjecture on the algebraicity of critical values of symmetric power $L$-functions associated to modular forms of weight greater than four. We also prove new cases of Blasius' conjecture on the algebraicity…
For an even integer $k\geq 2$, let $f$ be a primitive holomorphic cusp form of weight $k$ for the full modular group $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ and let $\lambda_{{\rm{sym}}^jf}(n)$ denote the $n^\text{th}$ normalized Fourier coefficient of the…
The purpose of this article is to generalize some results of Vatsal on studying the special values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions in an anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension. Let $g$ be a cuspidal Hilbert modular form of parallel weight…
Let $L_1$, $L_2$ $L_3$ be integer linear functions with no fixed prime divisor. We show there are infinitely many $n$ for which the product $L_1(n)L_2(n)L_3(n)$ has at most 7 prime factors, improving a result of Porter. We do this by means…
Let $A_f(1,n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a Hecke-Maass cusp form $f$ for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$ and $$ r_3(n)=\#\left\{(n_1,n_2,n_3)\in \mathbb{Z}^3:n_1^2+n_2^2+n_3^2=n\right\}. $$ Let $1\leq h\leq X$ and $\phi(x)$ be a smooth…
A family of global integrals representing a product of tensor product (partial) $L$-functions: $ L^S(s,\pi\times\tau_1)L^S(s,\pi\times\tau_2)... L^S(s,\pi\times\tau_r) $ are established in this paper, where $\pi$ is an irreducible cuspidal…
We obtain a strong bound on the second moment of the $GL_3$ standard $L$-function on the critical line. The method builds on the recent work of Aggarwal, Leung, and Munshi which treated shorter intervals. We deduce some corollaries…
We investigate the critical endpoint of finite temperature phase transition of $N_f=3$ QCD at zero chemical potential. We employ the renormalization-group improved Iwasaki gauge action and non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson-clover…
