Let $\pi $ be an automorphic irreducible cuspidal representation of $\mathrm{GL}_{m}$ over $\mathbb {Q}$. Denoted by $\lambda _{\pi }(n)$ the nth coefficient in the Dirichlet series expansion of $L(s,\pi )$ associated with $\pi $. Let $\pi _{1}$ be an automorphic irreducible cuspidal representation of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb {Z})$. Denoted by $\lambda _{\pi _{1}\times \pi _{1}}(n)$ the nth coefficient in the Dirichlet series expansion of $L(s,\pi _{1}\times \pi _{1})$ associated with $\pi _{1}\times \pi _{1}$. In this paper, we study the cancellations of $\lambda _{\pi }(n)$ and $\lambda _{\pi _{1}\times \pi _{1}}(n)$ over Beatty sequences.

The multiple T-value, which is a variant of the multiple zeta value of level two, was introduced by Kaneko and Tsumura [‘Zeta functions connecting multiple zeta values and poly-Bernoulli numbers’, in: Various Aspects of Multiple Zeta Functions, Advanced Studies in Pure Mathematics, 84 (Mathematical Society of Japan, Tokyo, 2020), 181–204]. We show that the generating function of a weighted sum of multiple T-values of fixed weight and depth is given in terms of the multiple T-values of depth one by solving a differential equation of Heun type.

We study the depth filtration on multiple zeta values, on the motivic Galois group of mixed Tate motives over $\mathbb {Z}$ and on the Grothendieck–Teichmüller group, and its relation to modular forms. Using period polynomials for cusp forms for $\mathrm {SL} _2(\mathbb {Z})$, we construct an explicit Lie algebra of solutions to the linearized double shuffle equations, which gives a conjectural description of all identities between multiple zeta values modulo $\zeta (2)$ and modulo lower depth. We formulate a single conjecture about the homology of this Lie algebra which implies conjectures due to Broadhurst and Kreimer, Racinet, Zagier, and Drinfeld on the structure of multiple zeta values and on the Grothendieck–Teichmüller Lie algebra.

Let $\mathbb {F}_q$ be the finite field of q elements. In this paper, we study the vanishing behavior of multizeta values over $\mathbb {F}_q[t]$ at negative integers. These values are analogs of the classical multizeta values. At negative integers, they are series of products of power sums $S_d(k)$ which are polynomials in t. By studying the t-valuation of $S_d(s)$ for $s < 0$, we show that multizeta values at negative integers vanish only at trivial zeros. The proof is inspired by the idea of Sheats in the proof of a statement of “greedy element” by Carlitz.

We prove a new upper bound on the second moment of Maass form symmetric square L-functions defined over Gaussian integers. Combining this estimate with the recent result of Balog–Biro–Cherubini–Laaksonen, we improve the error term in the prime geodesic theorem for the Picard manifold.

We consider the sum $\sum 1/\gamma $, where $\gamma $ ranges over the ordinates of nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function in an interval $(0,T]$, and examine its behaviour as $T \to \infty $. We show that, after subtracting a smooth approximation $({1}/{4\pi }) \log ^2(T/2\pi ),$ the sum tends to a limit $H \approx -0.0171594$, which can be expressed as an integral. We calculate H to high accuracy, using a method which has error $O((\log T)/T^2)$. Our results improve on earlier results by Hassani [‘Explicit approximation of the sums over the imaginary part of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function’, Appl. Math. E-Notes 16 (2016), 109–116] and other authors.

Let E(s, Q) be the Epstein zeta function attached to a positive definite quadratic form of discriminant D < 0, such that h(D) ≥ 2, where h(D) is the class number of the imaginary quadratic field ${\mathbb{Q}} (\sqrt D)$. We denote by ${N_E}({\sigma _1},{\sigma _2},T)$ the number of zeros of $[E(s,Q)$ in the rectangle ${\sigma _1} < {\mathop{\rm Re}\nolimits} (s) \le {\sigma _2}$ and $T \le {\mathop{\rm Im}\nolimits} (s) \le 2T$, where $1/2 < {\sigma _1} < {\sigma _2} < 1$ are fixed real numbers. In this paper, we improve the asymptotic formula of Gonek and Lee for ${N_E}({\sigma _1},{\sigma _2},T)$, obtaining a saving of a power of log T in the error term.

As pointed out by Alexandre Bailleul, the paper mentioned in the title contains a mistake in Theorem 2.2. The hypothesis on the linear relation of the almost periods is not sufficient. In this note, we fix the problem and its minor consequences on other results in the same paper.

Let $E/\mathbb {Q}$ be a number field of degree $n$. We show that if $\operatorname {Reg}(E)\ll _n |\!\operatorname{Disc}(E)|^{1/4}$ then the fraction of class group characters for which the Hecke $L$-function does not vanish at the central point is $\gg _{n,\varepsilon } |\!\operatorname{Disc}(E)|^{-1/4-\varepsilon }$. The proof is an interplay between almost equidistribution of Eisenstein periods over the toral packet in $\mathbf {PGL}_n(\mathbb {Z})\backslash \mathbf {PGL}_n(\mathbb {R})$ associated to the maximal order of $E$, and the escape of mass of the torus orbit associated to the trivial ideal class.

In this paper, we prove a one level density result for the low-lying zeros of quadratic Hecke L-functions of imaginary quadratic number fields of class number 1. As a corollary, we deduce, essentially, that at least $(19-\cot (1/4))/16 = 94.27\ldots \%$ of the L-functions under consideration do not vanish at 1/2.

Let $a_1$, $a_2$, and $a_3$ be distinct reduced residues modulo q satisfying the congruences $a_1^2 \equiv a_2^2 \equiv a_3^2 \ (\mathrm{mod}\ q)$. We conditionally derive an asymptotic formula, with an error term that has a power savings in q, for the logarithmic density of the set of real numbers x for which $\pi (x;q,a_1)> \pi (x;q,a_2) > \pi (x;q,a_3)$. The relationship among the $a_i$ allows us to normalize the error terms for the $\pi (x;q,a_i)$ in an atypical way that creates mutual independence among their distributions, and also allows for a proof technique that uses only elementary tools from probability.

We study lower bounds of a general family of L-functions on the $1$-line. More precisely, we show that for any $F(s)$ in this family, there exist arbitrarily large t such that $F(1+it)\geq e^{\gamma _F} (\log _2 t + \log _3 t)^m + O(1)$, where m is the order of the pole of $F(s)$ at $s=1$. This is a generalisation of the result of Aistleitner, Munsch and Mahatab [‘Extreme values of the Riemann zeta function on the $1$-line’, Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN 2019(22) (2019), 6924–6932]. As a consequence, we get lower bounds for large values of Dedekind zeta-functions and Rankin-Selberg L-functions of the type $L(s,f\times f)$ on the $1$-line.

We prove that, for any small $\varepsilon > 0$, the number of irrationals among the following odd zeta values: $\zeta (3),\zeta (5),\zeta (7),\ldots ,\zeta (s)$ is at least $( c_0 - \varepsilon )({s^{1/2}}/{(\log s)^{1/2}})$, provided $s$ is a sufficiently large odd integer with respect to $\varepsilon$. The constant $c_0 = 1.192507\ldots$ can be expressed in closed form. Our work improves the lower bound $2^{(1-\varepsilon )({\log s}/{\log \log s})}$ of the previous work of Fischler, Sprang and Zudilin. We follow the same strategy of Fischler, Sprang and Zudilin. The main new ingredient is an asymptotically optimal design for the zeros of the auxiliary rational functions, which relates to the inverse totient problem.

We prove a functional equation for a vector valued real analytic Eisenstein series transforming with the Weil representation of $\operatorname{Sp}(n,\mathbb{Z})$ on $\mathbb{C}[(L^{\prime }/L)^{n}]$ . By relating such an Eisenstein series with a real analytic Jacobi Eisenstein series of degree $n$ , a functional equation for such an Eisenstein series is proved. Employing a doubling method for Jacobi forms of higher degree established by Arakawa, we transfer the aforementioned functional equation to a zeta function defined by the eigenvalues of a Jacobi eigenform. Finally, we obtain the analytic continuation and a functional equation of the standard $L$ -function attached to a Jacobi eigenform, which was already proved by Murase, however in a different way.

In order to study integers with few prime factors, the average of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{k}=\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}\ast \log ^{k}$ has been a central object of research. One of the more important cases, $k=2$, was considered by Selberg [‘An elementary proof of the prime-number theorem’, Ann. of Math. (2) 50 (1949), 305–313]. For $k\geq 2$, it was studied by Bombieri [‘The asymptotic sieve’, Rend. Accad. Naz. XL (5) 1(2) (1975/76), 243–269; (1977)] and later by Friedlander and Iwaniec [‘On Bombieri’s asymptotic sieve’, Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. (4) 5(4) (1978), 719–756], as an application of the asymptotic sieve.

Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{j,k}:=\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{j}\ast \log ^{k}$, where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{j}$ denotes the Liouville function for $(j+1)$-free integers, and $0$ otherwise. In this paper we evaluate the average value of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{j,k}$ in a residue class $n\equiv a\text{ mod }q$, $(a,q)=1$, uniformly on $q$. When $j\geq 2$, we find that the average value in a residue class differs by a constant factor from the expected value. Moreover, an explicit formula of Weil type for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}_{k}(n)$ involving the zeros of the Riemann zeta function is derived for an arbitrary compactly supported ${\mathcal{C}}^{2}$ function.

In this paper, we are interested in obtaining large values of Dirichlet L-functions evaluated at zeros of a class of L-functions, that is,

$$ \begin{align*}\max_{\substack{F(\rho)=0\\ T\leq \Im \rho \leq 2T}}L(\rho,\chi), \end{align*} $$

We introduce a new family of real-analytic modular forms on the upper-half plane. They are arguably the simplest class of ‘mixed’ versions of modular forms of level one and are constructed out of real and imaginary parts of iterated integrals of holomorphic Eisenstein series. They form an algebra of functions satisfying many properties analogous to classical holomorphic modular forms. In particular, they admit expansions in $q,\overline{q}$ and $\log |q|$ involving only rational numbers and single-valued multiple zeta values. The first nontrivial functions in this class are real-analytic Eisenstein series.

Motohashi established an explicit identity between the fourth moment of the Riemann zeta function weighted by some test function and a spectral cubic moment of automorphic $L$-functions. By an entirely different method, we prove a generalization of this formula to a fourth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions modulo $q$ weighted by a non-archimedean test function. This establishes a new reciprocity formula. As an application, we obtain sharp upper bounds for the fourth moment twisted by the square of a Dirichlet polynomial of length $q^{1/4}$. An auxiliary result of independent interest is a sharp upper bound for a certain sixth moment for automorphic $L$-functions, which we also use to improve the best known subconvexity bounds for automorphic $L$-functions in the level aspect.

For each $t\in \mathbb{R}$, we define the entire function

We prove that sums of length about $q^{3/2}$ of Hecke eigenvalues of automorphic forms on $\operatorname{SL}_{3}(\mathbf{Z})$ do not correlate with $q$-periodic functions with bounded Fourier transform. This generalizes the earlier results of Munshi and Holowinsky–Nelson, corresponding to multiplicative Dirichlet characters, and applies, in particular, to trace functions of small conductor modulo primes.
