Second moments of Dirichlet L-functions weighted by Kloosterman sums

Abstract

For the general modulo q ⩾ 3 and a general multiplicative character χ modulo q, the upper bound estimate of |S(m, n, 1, χ, q)| is a very complex and difficult problem. In most cases, the Weil type bound for |S(m, n, 1, χ, q)| is valid, but there are some counterexamples. Although the value distribution of |S(m, n, 1, χ, q)| is very complicated, it also exhibits many good distribution properties in some number theory problems. The main purpose of this paper is using the estimate for k-th Kloosterman sums and analytic method to study the asymptotic properties of the mean square value of Dirichlet L-functions weighted by Kloosterman sums, and give an interesting mean value formula for it, which extends the result in reference of W.
