Wide moments of $L$-functions II: Dirichlet $L$-functions

Asbjørn Christian Nordentoft

Abstract

We study wide moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions using analytic properties of the Lerch zeta function. Among other things we obtain an asymptotic expansion of wide moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions (with arbitrary twists) extending results of Heath-Brown. We also give applications to non-vanishing.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

For $i=1,\ldots, m$ with $m\geq 2$, let $\psi_i\text{ \rm mod } \ell_i$ be Dirichlet characters. Then we have where $T_{\overline{d},\psi_i}$ depends only on the residue class $\overline{d}$ of $d$ modulo $\ell:=\mathrm{lcm}(\ell_1,\ldots, \ell_m)$ and on the Dirichlet characters $\psi_i$. Furthermore, given $a\text{ \rm mod } \ell$, we have the following asymptotic expansion for any $K\geq 1$:
