Simultaneous non-vanishing of twists of and -functions

Junxian Li, Xiannan Li, Yongxiao Lin

We show that for a fixed Hecke--Maass cusp form , there are infinitely many primitive Dirichlet characters such that and $L(1/…

One-level densities of large even and odd orthogonal families of automorphic L-functions

Vorrapan Chandee, Xiannan Li, Micah B. Milinovich

We prove one-level density results for L-functions attached to primitive forms of level q, averaged over square-free q, conditional on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). We…

The sixth moment of Dirichlet L-functions at the central point

Vorrapan Chandee, Xiannan Li, Kaisa Matomäki +1

In 1970, Huxley obtained a sharp upper bound for the sixth moment of Dirichlet -functions at the central point, averaged over primitive characters modulo and all moduli…

Moments of quadratic twists of modular -functions

Xiannan Li

We prove an asymptotic for the second moment of quadratic twists of a modular -function. This was previously known conditionally on GRH by the work of Soundararajan and Young.

On Benford's Law for multiplicative functions

Vorrapan Chandee, Xiannan Li, Paul Pollack +1

We provide a criterion to determine whether a real multiplicative function is a strong Benford sequence. The criterion implies that the -divisor functions, where ,…

The second moment of -functions at special points

Vorrapan Chandee, Xiannan Li

In this paper, we obtain upper bounds for the second moment of , where is a Hecke Maass form for , and is taken fro…

Prime values of a sparse polynomial sequence

Xiannan Li

A distinguishing feature of certain intractable problems in prime number theory is the sparsity of the underlying sequence. Motivated by the general problem of finding primes in sp…

The eighth moment of the family of -automorphic -functions

Vorrapan Chandee, Xiannan Li

We prove a Lindelöf on average bound for the eighth moment of a family of -functions attached to automorphic forms on , the first time this has been accomplished. Previou…

Conditional bounds for the least quadratic non-residue and related problems

Youness Lamzouri, Xiannan Li, Kannan Soundararajan

This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improv…

Lower bounds for small fractional moments of Dirichlet -functions

Vorrapan Chandee, Xiannan Li

We prove a lower bound of the correct order of magnitude in the conductor aspect for small rational moments of Drichlet -functions. Such bounds require new techniques, which is…

The smallest prime that does not split completely in a number field

Xiannan Li

We study the problem of bounding the least prime that does not split completely in a number field. This is a generalization of the classic problem of bounding the least quadratic n…

Upper bounds on L-functions at the edge of the critical strip

Xiannan Li

The problem of finding upper bounds for L-functions at the edge of the critical strip has a long and interesting history. Here, the situation for classical L-functions such as Diri…
