Bounds for the logarithmic derivative in the Selberg Class

Let $F \in \mathcal{S}$, where $\mathcal{S}$ is the set of $L-$functions in the Selberg Class. Are there established upper and lower bounds for $$\left|\frac{F^{'}(s)}{F(s)}\right|,$$ where $s = \...

Does the Ramanujan-Petersson condition correspond to a Fourier type property?

The Ramanujan-Petersson is one of the requirements used in Selberg's class of L-functions, and as such is a necessary condition for the Riemann Hypothesis to hold. The general converse conjecture ...

Does Rankin-Selberg convolution preserve primitivity?

Call $L$-function any element of an L-rig (see Are there infinitely many L-rigs? for a definition). Suppose $F$ and $G$ are two primitive L-functions. Is $F\otimes G$ itself primitive? If yes, does ...

Strong automorphisms of the Selberg class

Following Automorphisms of the Selberg class, I define strong automorphisms of the Selberg class by adding as an hypothesis that every invariant of $F$ (i.e all the $H$-invariants, conductor and root ...

Are there natural Dirichlet series whose completions have poles in the region of absolute convergence?

The Selberg class of $L$-functions are Dirichlet series $$ L(s, f) = \sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{a(n)}{n^s}, $$ satisfying certain properties that can be abbreviated as analyticity, a Ramanujan conjecture, ...

Selberg's orthonormality conjecture and density

Let $F$ and $G$ be two primitive functions of the Selberg class, and let $\mathbb{A}$ be the set of values taken by the function which maps a prime number $p$ to $a_{p}(F)\overline{a_{p}(G)}$. $\...

Does this particular L-series built from L-functions of prime degree define an L-function?

Throughout this question, I call 'L-function' any automorphic L-function belonging to the Selberg class. Suppose $ (F_i)_{(i>0)} $ is a sequence of L-functions with $ F_i $ of degree $ p_i $ ...
