In the first two sections it is shown how straightforward conjectures about the meromorphic continuation and polar divisors of certain such series imply, as a consequence, precise asymptotics (previously conjectured via random matrix theory) for moments of zeta functions and quadratic L-series. As an application of the theory, in a third section, we obtain the current best known error term for mean values of cubes of central values of Dirichlet L-series. The methods utilized to derive this result are the convexity principle for functions of several complex variables combined with a knowledge of groups of functional equations for certain multiple Dirichlet series.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-10-09T02:50:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "multiple dirichlet series", "complex variables", "functional equations", "l-functions", "random matrix theory" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 59, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2001math.....10092D" } } }
