Here, the situation for classical L-functions such as Dirichlet L-functions is relatively well understood. The reason for this is because the size of the coefficients of these L-functions is known to be small. Although L-functions are generally expected to have coefficients which are bounded by a constant at the primes, this has only been proven for a small class of familiar examples. Our main focus here is on the problem of finding upper bounds for L-functions for which we have comparatively bad bounds for the size of the coefficients.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2009-09-19T19:00:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11M99", "11F67" ], "keywords": [ "critical strip", "finding upper bounds", "coefficients", "comparatively bad bounds", "main focus" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0904.0850L" } } }
