Sums of $L$-functions over the rational function field
Abstract
Description
Friedberg, Hoffstein and Lieman have constructed two related multiple Dirichlet series from quadratic and higher-order $L$-functions and Gauss sums. We compute these multiple Dirichlet series explicitly in the case of the rational function field. This is done by utilizing the functional equation of the $L$-functions and the functional equation relating the two multiple Dirichlet series. We also point out a very simple correspondence between these series and their $p$-parts.
