In this work we provide a meromorphic continuation in three complex variables of two types of triple shifted convolution sums of Fourier coefficients of holomorphic cusp forms. The foundations of this construction are based in the continuation of the spectral expansion of a special truncated Poincare series recently developed by Jeffrey Hoffstein. As a result we are able to produce previously unstudied and nontrivial asymptotics of truncated shifted sums which we expect to correspond to off-diagonal terms in the third moment of automorphic L-functions.
We prove the asymptotic formula for the fourth moment of automorphic $L$-functions of level $p^{ u}$, where $p$ is a fixed prime number and $ u rightarrow infty$. This paper is a continuation of work by Rouymi, who computed asymptotics of the first three moments at prime power level, and a generalization of results obtained for prime level by Duke, Friedlander & Iwaniec and Kowalski, Michel & Vanderkam.
We give a characterisation of the field into which quotients of values of L-functions associated to a cusp form belong. The construction involves shifted convolution series of divisor sums and to establish it we combine parts of F. Browns technique to study multiple modular values with the properties of a double Eisentein series previously studied by the author and C. OSullivan.
In this paper, we study the Newton polygons for the $L$-functions of $n$-variable generalized Kloosterman sums. Generally, the Newton polygon has a topological lower bound, called the Hodge polygon. In order to determine the Hodge polygon, we explicitly construct a basis of the top dimensional Dwork cohomology. Using Wans decomposition theorem and diagonal local theory, we obtain when the Newton polygon coincides with the Hodge polygon. In particular, we concretely get the slope sequence for $L$-function of $bar{F}(bar{lambda},x):=sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{a_i}+bar{lambda}prod_{i=1}^nx_i^{-1}$.
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.
Using the Kuznetsov trace formula, we prove a spectral decomposition for the sums of generalized Dirichlet $L$-functions. Among applications are an explicit formula relating norms of prime geodesics to moments of symmetric square $L$-functions and an asymptotic expansion for the average of central values of generalized Dirichlet $L$-functions.
