Dedekind zeta function of abelian number fields is a product of Dirichlet L-functions
Can somebody give an explicit (and self-contained) proof of the fact that the Dedekind zeta function of an abelian number field $K$ is a product of Dirichlet L-functions? I.e.,
$$
\zeta_K(s)=\prod_{\...

Proposition 16.5.4 in Ireland-Rosen
We aim to show that if $\chi$ is a complex Dirichlet character mod $m$, then $L(1, \chi) \neq 0$. Assuming otherwise, we easily prove that if $F(s) = \prod_{\chi}L(s, \chi)$, where the product is over ...

Reconciling different ideal-theoretic definitions of Hecke Characters
I'm reading Chapter 7 of Neukirch's book on algebraic number theory, where the author defines a Größencharakter (6.1) as:
Let $\mathfrak{m}$ be an integral ideal of the number field $K$, and let $J^{\...

Zeros of L function on the 0.5 line
Could someone please tell what results are known about the zeros of L function, $L(s,\chi)$ on the 1/2 line, where $\chi$ is a character mod $q$?
Is there an upper bound for this count when we count ...

Is there a useful/meaningful notion of a multi-variable L-function in number theory?
I recently encountered multi-variable generalizations of various classical zeta functions. For example, the multi-variable Riemann zeta function
$$
\zeta(s_1, \ldots , s_r) := \sum_{0 < n_1 < \...

Rankin-Selberg Convolution of newforms with different levels
Let $f \in \mathscr{S}_{k}(N,\chi)$ and $g \in \mathscr{S}_{k}(M,\psi)$ be newforms with $(N,M) = 1$. For $\Re(s) > 1$, I was able to derive an integral representation for the Rankin-Selberg ...

Show that $\sum_{n\leq x}\frac{f(n)}{\sqrt n}=2L(1,\chi)\sqrt{x}+O(1)$, where $f(n)=\sum_{d\vert n}\chi(n)$.
Exercise 2.4.4 from M. Ram Murty's Problems in Analytic Number Theory asks us to show that for $\chi$ a nontrivial Dirichlet character $(\operatorname{mod} q)$, we have the estimate
$$\sum_{n\leq x}\...

Would c != 0 actually disprove the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyre conjecture rather than prove it?
Background:
The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture states that the Taylor expansion around the point $s=1$ of the L-function of an elliptic curve $E$ has the form
$$c(s-1)^r+\text{higher order terms}...

Bounds for Dirichlet $L$-functions on the critical line [closed]
I am interested in bounds on the constants $A,B$ such that
$$L\big(\tfrac{1}{2}+it,\chi\big)\ll_\varepsilon q^{A+\varepsilon}(|t|+1)^{B+\varepsilon},$$
and was curious if any developments have been ...

A question on the Riemann zeta function
Question: Consider a $L$-shaped path $L_\epsilon:\frac{1}{2}+\epsilon\to \frac{1}{2}+\epsilon+i\ (H+\epsilon)\to \frac{1}{2}+i\ (H+\epsilon)$ where $H>0$ is fixed and $\epsilon>0$ is arbitrarily ...
