The Dirichlet series of the Hasse–Weil L-function - MathOverflow most recent 30 from http://mathoverflow.net 2013-05-18T11:13:16Z http://mathoverflow.net/feeds/question/111391 http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.5/rdf http://mathoverflow.net/questions/111391/the-dirichlet-series-of-the-hasseweil-l-function The Dirichlet series of the Hasse–Weil L-function RH 2012-11-03T16:30:12Z 2012-11-03T19:36:14Z <p>I have the following question: Is there is a paper claiming that the Dirichlet series of the Hasse–Weil $L$-function (associated with an elliptic curve over rationals) is of finite order. Thank you in advance. I cannot find any result in the net.</p> http://mathoverflow.net/questions/111391/the-dirichlet-series-of-the-hasseweil-l-function/111395#111395 Answer by GH for The Dirichlet series of the Hasse–Weil L-function GH 2012-11-03T17:55:59Z 2012-11-03T17:55:59Z <p>Without the modularity theorem we don't even know that $L(E,s)$ is entire. The modularity theorem implies that $L(E,s)$ is the $L$-function of a holomorphic cusp form (for a congruence subgroup), for which it follows by the functional equation and the Phragmén-Lindelöf convexity principle that it is of order 1 (and much more).</p>
