The reciprocal of the beta function and G L ( n , ) Whittaker functions

Eric Stade (1994)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

In this paper we derive, using the Gauss summation theorem for hypergeometric series, a simple integral expression for the reciprocal of Euler’s beta function. This expression is similar in form to several well-known integrals for the beta function itself.We then apply our new formula to the study of G L ( n , ) Whittaker functions, which are special functions that arise in the Fourier theory for automorphic forms on the general linear group. Specifically, we deduce explicit integral representations of “fundamental”...

The second moment of quadratic twists of modular L-functions

K. Soundararajan, Matthew P. Young (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We study the second moment of the central values of quadratic twists of a modular L -function. Unconditionally, we obtain a lower bound which matches the conjectured asymptotic formula, while on GRH we prove the asymptotic formula itself.

The shifted fourth moment of automorphic L-functions of prime power level

Olga Balkanova (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

We prove an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment of automorphic L-functions of level p ν , where p is a fixed prime number and ν → ∞. This is a continuation of work by Rouymi, who computed the asymptotics of the first three moments at a prime power level, and a generalization of results obtained for a prime level by Duke, Friedlander Iwaniec and Kowalski, Michel VanderKam.
