Upper bound for the moment of shifted values of cubic $L$-functions over function fields

In this paper, we study correlations of shifted values of cubic $L$-functions over function fields and derive an upper bound for moments of these shifted values in the limit where the genus of the corresponding cubic characters tends to infinity over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Our results apply to the non-Kummer case when $q \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$. The Kummer case, when $q \equiv 1 \pmod{3}$, can be treated similarly.

Large values of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we utilize the long resonator method to derive $\Omega$-results for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(\sigma, \chi_d)$, where $d$ runs over all fundamental discriminants with $|d| \leq X$ and $\sigma\in [1/2, 1]$ is fixed. This study advances understanding of the maximum size of $L(\sigma, \chi_d)$ within the segment $\sigma\in [1/2, 1]$. In particular, we improve upon Soundararajan's results at the central point and provide a lower bound on the proportion of fundamental discriminants, uniformly within an expected order of magnitude, up to optimal values of the constant for a fixed $\sigma \in (1/2, 1]$.

Large values of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over monic irreducible polynomial in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$

We prove an $\Omega$-result for the quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function $|L(1/2, \chi_P)|$ over irreducible polynomials $P$ associated with the hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ in the large genus limit. In particular, we showed that for any $\epsilon\in (0, 1/2)$, \[ \max_{\substack{P\in \mathcal{P}_{2g+1}}}|L(1/2, \chi_P)|\gg \exp\left(\left(\sqrt{\left(1/2-\epsilon\right)\ln q}+o(1)\right)\sqrt{\frac{g \ln_2 g}{\ln g}}\right), \] where $\mathcal{P}_{2g+1}$ is the set of all monic irreducible polynomial of degree $2g+1$. This matches with the order of magnitude of the Bondarenko--Seip bound.

Convolution of periodic multiplicative functions and the divisor problem

We study a certain class of arithmetic functions that appeared in Klurman's classification of $\pm 1$ multiplicative functions with bounded partial sums, c.f., Comp. Math. 153 (8), 2017, pp. 1622-1657. These functions are periodic and $1$-pretentious. We prove that if $f_1$ and $f_2$ belong to this class, then $\sum_{n\leq x}(f_1\ast f_2)(n)=\Omega(x^{1/4})$. This confirms a conjecture by the first author. As a byproduct of our proof, we studied the correlation between $\Delta(x)$ and $\Delta(\theta x)$, where $\theta$ is a fixed real number. We prove that there is a non-trivial correlation when $\theta$ is rational, and a decorrelation when $\theta$ is irrational. Moreover, if $\theta$ has a finite irrationality measure, then we can make it quantitative this decorrelation in terms of this measure.

Correlation of shifted values of $L$-functions in the hyperelliptic ensemble

The moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over function fields have recently attracted much attention with the work of Andrade and Keating. In this article, we establish lower bounds for the mean values of the product of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ in the large genus limit. By using the idea of A. Florea \cite{FL3}, we also obtain their upper bounds. As a consequence, we find upper bounds of its derivatives. These lower and upper bounds give the correlation of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with hyperelliptic curves with different transitions.

Simultaneous non-vanishing of central values of $GL(2) \times GL(3) $ and $GL(3)$ $L$-functions

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 $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke cusp form of weight $k\equiv 0 \pmod 4$.

Subconvexity bound for $GL(2)$ L-functions: \lowercase{t}-aspect

Let $f $ be a holomorphic Hecke eigenform or a Hecke-Maass cusp form for the full modular group $ SL(2, \mathbb{Z})$. In this paper we shall use circle method to prove the Weyl exponent for $GL(2)$ $L$-functions. We shall prove that \[ L \left( \frac{1}{2} + it, f \right) \ll_{f, ε} \left( 2 + |t|\right)^{1/3 + ε}, \] for any $ε> 0.$
