The landscape of L-functions: degree 3 and conductor 1

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution

Abstract

We extend previous lists by numerically computing approximations to many L-functions of degree d = 3, conductor N = 1, and small spectral parameters. We sketch how previous arguments extend to show that for very small spectral parameters there are no such L-functions. Using the case (d, N) = (3, 1) as a guide, we explain how the set of all L-functions with any fixed invariants (d, N) can be viewed as a landscape of points in a (d − 1)-dimensional Euclidean space. We use Plancherel measure to identify the expected density of points for large spectral parameters for general (d, N). The points from our data are close to the origin and we find that they have smaller density.
