Conjecture on twists of symmetric-power L-values
Let be a primitive form, let be a primitive Dirichlet character, and let denote the finite -function twisted by . Write for the Gauss sum, and let mean equality up to an element of . Twisting conjecture for symmetric-power -functions. If is even, then the critical sets of and coincide, and at a critical integer ,
unless is even and is odd to the left of the center of symmetry, in which case the exponent is . If is odd and is even, a critical for the twisted function has either or critical for the untwisted function; for to the right of the center,
while to the left of the center the exponent is . If is odd and is odd, the critical sets coincide; for , a critical for the twisted function has either or critical for the untwisted function, and
The conjecture predicts how twisting changes symmetric-power special values: even twists preserve critical points and introduce Gauss-sum factors, whereas odd twists can shift the relevant critical integer and introduce powers of as well. The provided material gives no resolution status.
