In the first part of the paper we compute the integral moments of the class number $h_{P}$ associated to quadratic function fields with prime discriminants $P$ and this is done by adapting to the function field setting some of the previous results carried out by Nagoshi in the number field setting. In the second part of the paper we compute the complex moments of of $L(1,\\x_P)$ in large uniform range and investigate the statistical distribution of the class numbers by introducing a certain random Euler product. The second part of the paper is based on recent results carried out by Lumley when dealing with square-free polynomials.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-10-28T12:50:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "class number", "statistical distribution", "second part", "random euler product", "large uniform range" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
