THE LEAST QUADRATIC NON-RESIDUE, VALUES OF L-FUNCTIONS AT s = 1, AND RELATED PROBLEMS

چکیده
In this paper, we study explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic non-residue and the least prime in an arithmetic progression. We also refine the classical conditional bounds of Littlewood for L-functions at s = 1. In particular, we derive explicit upper and lower bounds for L(1, χ) and ζ(1+it), and deduce explicit bounds for the class number of imaginary quadratic fields. Finally, we improve the best known theoretical bounds for the least quadratic non-residue, and more generally, the least k-th power non-residue.

Conditional bounds for the least quadratic non-residue and related problems
This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic non-residue and the least prime in an arithmetic progression. We also refine the classical conditional bounds of Littlewood for L-functions at s = 1. In particula...
متن کاملBifurcation of limit cycles from a quadratic reversible center with the unbounded elliptic separatrix
The paper is concerned with the bifurcation of limit cycles in general quadratic perturbations of a quadratic reversible and non-Hamiltonian system, whose period annulus is bounded by an elliptic separatrix related to a singularity at infinity in the poincar'{e} disk. Attention goes to the number of limit cycles produced by the period annulus under perturbations. By using the appropriate Picard...
متن کاملHeegner Points and Non-vanishing of Rankin/selberg L-functions
We discuss the nonvanishing of the family of central values L( 1 2 , f ⊗ χ), where f is a fixed automorphic form on GL(2) and χ varies through class group characters of an imaginary quadratic field K = Q( √ −D), as D varies; we prove results of the nature that at least D1/5000 such twists are nonvanishing. We also discuss the related question of the rank of a fixed elliptic curve E/Q over the H...
متن کاملDavenport constant with weights and some related questions, II
Let n ∈ N and let A ⊆ Z/nZ be such that A does not contain 0 and it is non–empty. Generalizing a well known constant, EA(n) is defined to be the least t ∈ N such that for all sequences (x1, . . . , xt) ∈ Z, there exist indices j1, . . . , jn ∈ N, 1 ≤ j1 < · · · < jn ≤ t, and (θ1, · · · ,θn) ∈ A with ∑n i=1 θixji ≡ 0 (mod n). Similarly, for any such set A, we define the Davenport Constant of Z/n...
