Abstract:
Rankin-Selberg convolution L-functions are important functions in number theory. Their properties play a central role in many of deepest works on the Ramanujan-Petersson Conjecture. In a recent paper, Hoffstein and Hulse defined generalizations of these L-functions, the so-called ``shifted-convolution" L-functions. They obtained the meromorphic continuation of the functions in many cases. Here we consider symmetrizations of these L-functions, and we exactly evaluate their special values at diagonal weights for all shifts. This is joint work with Michael Mertens.
