Abstract. A basic idea of Dirichlet is to study a collection of interesting quantities {an}n≥1 by means of its Dirichlet series in a complex variable w: n≥1 ann−w. In this paper we examine this construction when the quantities an are themselves infinite series in a second complex variable s, arising from number theory or representation theory. We survey a body of recent work on such series and present a new conjecture concerning them. The object of this paper is to give a survey of a body of recent work applying methods from automorphic forms to problems in number theory. Generalizing this work, we shall also formulate a new conjecture concerning Langlands L-functions, which implies such results as the Lindelöf Hypothesis in twisted aspect. This

A BURGESS-LIKE SUBCONVEX BOUND FOR TWISTED L-FUNCTIONS
, 2005
"... Let g be a cuspidal newform (holomorphic or Maass) of arbitrary level and nebentypus, χ a primitive character of conductor q, and s a point on the critical line ℜs = 1. It is proved that 2 L(g ⊗ χ, s) ≪ε,g,s q 1 2 − 1 8 (1−2θ)+ε, where ε> 0 is arbitrary and θ = 7 is the current known approximation ..."

Let g be a cuspidal newform (holomorphic or Maass) of arbitrary level and nebentypus, χ a primitive character of conductor q, and s a point on the critical line ℜs = 1. It is proved that 2 L(g ⊗ χ, s) ≪ε,g,s q 1 2 − 1 8 (1−2θ)+ε, where ε> 0 is arbitrary and θ = 7 is the current known approximation towards the Ramanujan– 64 Petersson conjecture (which would allow θ = 0); moreover, the dependence on s and all the parameters of g is polynomial. This result is an analog of Burgess ’ classical subconvex bound for Dirichlet L-functions. In Appendix 2 the above result is combined with a theorem of Waldspurger and the adelic calculations of Baruch–Mao to yield an improved uniform upper bound for the Fourier coefficients of holomorphic half-integral weight cusp forms.
Large character sums: Pretentious characters and the Polya-Vinogradov theorem

"... The best bound known for character sums was given independently by G. Pólya and I.M. Vinogradov in 1918 (see [4], p.135-137). For any non-principal Dirichlet character χ (mod q) we let M(χ): = max ..."

This article gives an introduction to the multiple Dirichlet series arising from sums of twisted automorphic L-functions. We begin by explaining how such series arise from Rankin-Selberg constructions. Then more recent work, using Hartogs ’ continuation principle as extended by Bochner in place of such constructions, is described. Applications to the nonvanishing of L-functions and to other problems are also discussed, and a multiple Dirichlet series over a function field is computed in detail.

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over the rationals. For any prime p of good reduction, let Ep be the elliptic curve over Fp obtained by reducing E mod p. Let ap(E) be the trace of the Frobenius morphism of Ep. Then, Hasse proved that #E(Fp) = p + 1 − ap(E) with |ap(E) | ≤ 2 √ p. The case ap(E) = 0 corresponds to supersingular reduction mod p.
