Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the authors study when a character sum over all n <= x is o(x); they show that this holds if log x / log log q -> infinity and q -> infinity (q is the size of the finite field).
In this paper, we prove a lower bound for $\underset{\chi \neq \chi_0}{\max}\bigg|\sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)\bigg|$, when $x= \frac{q}{(\log q)^B}$. This improves on a result of Granville and Soundararajan for large character sums when the…
Given a Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$ and its associated $L$-function, $L(s,\chi)$, we provide an explicit version of Burgess' estimate for $|L(s, \chi)|$. We use partial summation to provide bounds along the vertical lines $\Re{s}…
For any given integer $k\geq 2$ we prove the existence of infinitely many $q$ and characters $ \chi\pmod q$ of order $k$, such that $|L(1,\chi)|\geq (e^{\gamma}+o(1))\log\log q$. We believe this bound to be best possible. When the order $k$…
We obtain (conditional and unconditional) results on large values of $L$-functions $L(s,\chi)$ in the critical strip $1/2 \leq \Re s \leq 1$ when the character $\chi$ runs through a thin subgroup of all characters modulo an integer $q$.…
We establish that three well-known and rather different looking conjectures about Dirichlet characters and their (weighted) sums, (concerning the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov theorem for maximal character sums, the maximal admissible range in…
In this article, we investigate the conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. We prove an Omega result for quadratic character sums under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis.
In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. We prove some Omega results of quadratic character sums under the assumption of the generalized Riemnn hypothesis, which are as sharp as…
In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients. We prove some Omega results under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis.
For any real $k\geq 2$ and large prime $q$, we prove a lower bound on the $2k$-th moment of the Dirichlet character sum \begin{equation*} \frac{1}{\phi(q)} \sum_{\substack{\chi \text{ mod }q\\ \chi\neq \chi_0}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x}…
We estimate large and small values of $|L(\rho',\chi)|$, where $\chi$ is a primitive character mod $q$ for $q>2$ and $\rho'$ runs over critical points of the Riemann zeta function in the right half of the one-line, that is, the points where…
For a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$, we define $M(\chi)=\max_{t } |\sum_{n \leq t} \chi(n)|$. In this paper, we study this quantity for characters of a fixed odd order $g\geq 3$. Our main result provides a further…
Let $\chi$ be a primitive character modulo $q$, and let $\delta > 0$. Assuming that $\chi$ has large order $d$, for any $d$th root of unity $\alpha$ we obtain non-trivial upper bounds for the number of $n \leq x$ such that $\chi(n) =…
In this paper, we exhibit upper and lower bounds with explicit constants for some objects related to entire $L$-functions in the critical strip, under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. The examples include the entire Dirichlet…
This text shows the existence of large (3.54 times the average) gaps between consecutive zeros, on the critical line, of some Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s,\chi),$ with $\chi$ being an even primitive Dirichlet character.
We prove conjecturally sharp upper bounds for the Dirichlet character moments $\frac{1}{r-1} \sum_{\chi \; \text{mod} \; r} |\sum_{n \leq x} \chi(n)|^{2q}$, where $r$ is a large prime, $1 \leq x \leq r$, and $0 \leq q \leq 1$ is real. In…
In this article, we investigate large values of Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n\le N}f(n)\chi(n)$. We prove an Omega result in the region $\exp((\log q)^{\frac12+\varepsilon})\le N\le\sqrt q$, where $q$ is…
For each primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$, a hypothesis ${\rm GRH}^\dagger[\chi]$ is formulated in terms of zeros of the associated $L$-function $L(s,\chi)$. It is shown that for any such character, ${\rm GRH}^\dagger[\chi]$ is…
In this paper we give a refinement of the bound of D. A. Burgess for multiplicative character sums modulo a prime number $q$. This continues a series of previous logarithmic improvements, which are mostly due to H. Iwaniec and E. Kowalski.…
In this paper, we investigate large values of Dirichlet character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n\le N}f(n)\chi(n)$. We prove a new Omega result in the region $\exp((\log q)^{\frac12+\delta})\le N\le\sqrt q$, where $q$ is the…
