Non vanishing of products of twisted -functions

arXiv:2112.08927

Abstract

In this paper, we prove that if the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke--Maaß cusp form are not too correlated with additive characters, then there exists infinitely many Dirichlet characters such that \begin{align*} L\left(\frac{1}{2},π\otimesχ\right)L\left(\frac{1}{2},χ\right)\neq 0. \end{align*} To prove this result, we compute the first twisted moment of these function averaged over a well chosen set of conductors.
