CFKRS–DGH twisted moment conjecture for quadratic Dirichlet L-functions

About 18 years old · traced to

Let XX be large, let Φ\Phi be the smooth test function used in the moment, and let α\alpha be complex. For an odd squarefree integer ll, define

M(α,l)=\sideset∗∑(d,2)=1χ8d(l)L(12+α,χ8d)Φ(dX).M(\alpha,l)=\sideset{}{^*}\sum_{(d,2)=1}\chi_{8d}(l)L\left(\tfrac12+\alpha,\chi_{8d}\right)\Phi\left(\frac dX\right).

Let Φ~\widetilde{\Phi} be the Mellin transform of Φ\Phi, let ζ2(s)=(1−2−s)ζ(s)\zeta_2(s)=(1-2^{-s})\zeta(s), and define Bα(l)B_\alpha(l) by

ζ2(1+2α)Bα(l)=∑(n,2)=11n1+2α∏p∣nl(1+p−1)−1.\zeta_2(1+2\alpha)B_\alpha(l)=\sum_{(n,2)=1}\frac{1}{n^{1+2\alpha}}\prod_{p\mid nl}(1+p^{-1})^{-1}.

CFKRS–DGH twisted moment conjecture. Uniformly for ∣Re⁡(α)∣≪(log⁡X)−1|\operatorname{Re}(\alpha)|\ll(\log X)^{-1} and ∣Im⁡(α)∣≪(log⁡X)2|\operatorname{Im}(\alpha)|\ll(\log X)^2, one has

M(α,l)=XΦ~(1)2ζ2(2)l−1/2−αζ2(1+2α)Bα(l)+X1−αΦ~(1−α)γα2ζ2(2)l−1/2+αζ2(1−2α)B−α(l)+O((lX)1/2+ε).M(\alpha,l)=\frac{X\widetilde{\Phi}(1)}{2\zeta_2(2)}l^{-1/2-\alpha}\zeta_2(1+2\alpha)B_\alpha(l)+\frac{X^{1-\alpha}\widetilde{\Phi}(1-\alpha)\gamma_\alpha}{2\zeta_2(2)}l^{-1/2+\alpha}\zeta_2(1-2\alpha)B_{-\alpha}(l)+O\left((lX)^{1/2+\varepsilon}\right).

This twisted asymptotic is the form needed for mollification and amplification; the source presents it after the untwisted conjecture and attributes the related moment recipe to CFKRS and the twisted formulation to HY. Its resolution is not specified in the paper.
