One of the main new input is a substantial improvement of the admissible length of the mollifier which is done by solving a shifted convolution problem by a spectral method on average. A first consequence is a new subconvexity bound for Rankin-Selberg L-functions in the level aspect. Moreover, infinitely many Rankin-Selberg L-functions having at most eight non-trivial real zeros are produced and some new non-trivial estimates for the analytic rank of the family studied are obtained.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-02-23T09:02:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11M41" ], "keywords": [ "rankin-selberg l-functions", "level aspect", "harmonic mollified second moment", "non-trivial real zeros", "analytic rank" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......2470R" } } }
