Moments of Central $L$-values for Maass Forms over Imaginary Quadratic Fields

In this paper, over imaginary quadratic fields, we consider the family of $L$-functions $L (s, f)$ for an orthonormal basis of spherical Hecke--Maass forms $f$ with Archimedean parameter $t_f$. We establish asymptotic formulae for the twisted first and second moments of the central values $L\big(\frac 1 2, f\big)$, which can be applied to prove that at least $33 \%$ of $L\big(\frac 1 2, f\big)$ with $t_f \leqslant T$ are non-vanishing as $T \rightarrow \infty$. Our main tools are the spherical Kuznetsov trace formula and the Voronoï summation formula over imaginary quadratic fields.

Low-lying zeros of $L$-functions for Maass forms over imaginary quadratic fields

We study the $1$- or $2$-level density of families of $L$-functions for Hecke--Maass forms over an imaginary quadratic field $F$. For test functions whose Fourier transform is supported in $\left(-\frac 32, \frac 32\right)$, we prove that the $1$-level density for Hecke--Maass forms over $F$ of square-free level $\mathfrak{q}$, as $\mathrm{N}(\mathfrak{q})$ tends to infinity, agrees with that of the orthogonal random matrix ensembles. For Hecke--Maass forms over $F$ of full level, we prove similar statements for the $1$- and $2$-level densities, as the Laplace eigenvalues tends to infinity.

Subconvexity and equidistribution of Heegner points in the level aspect

Let q be a prime and -D < -4 be an odd fundamental discriminant such that q splits in Q(\sqrt{-D}). For f a weight zero Hecke-Maass newform of level q and h the weight one theta series of level D corresponding to an ideal class group character of Q(\sqrt{-D}), we establish a hybrid subconvexity bound for L(f \times h,s) at the central point when q = D^η for 0 < η< 1. With this circle of ideas, we show that the Heegner points of level q and discriminant D become equidistributed, in a natural sense, as q, D become large with q < D^{1/20-\varepsilon}. Our approach to these problems is connected to estimating the L^2-restriction norm of a Maass form of large level when restricted to the collection of Heegner points. We furthermore establish bounds for quadratic twists of Hecke-Maass L-functions with simultaneously large level and large quadratic twist, and hybrid bounds for quadratic Dirichlet L-functions in certain ranges.
