%0 Journal Article %T Subconvexity for a double Dirichlet series %A Valentin Blomer %J Mathematics %D 2009 %I arXiv %R 10.1112/S0010437X10004926 %X For Dirichlet series roughly of the type $Z(s, w) = sum_d L(s, chi_d) d^{-w}$ the subconvexity bound $Z(s, w) \ll (sw(s+w))^{1/6+\varepsilon}$ is proved on the critical lines $\Re s = \Re w = 1/2$. The convexity bound would replace 1/6 with 1/4. In addition, a mean square bound is proved that is consistent with the Lindel\"of hypothesis. An interesting specialization is $s=1/2$ in which case the above result give a subconvex bound for a Dirichlet series without an Euler product. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0907.4867v1
