Simple zeros of automorphic -functions

We prove that the complete $L$-function associated to any cuspidal automorphic representation of $\operatorname{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$ has infinitely many simple zeros.

A variant of Heilbronn characters

In this paper, we introduce arithmetic Heilbronn characters that generalize the notion of the classical Heilbronn characters, and discuss several properties of these characters. This formalism has several arithmetic applications. For instance, we obtain the holomorphy of suitable quotients of L-functions attached to elliptic curves, which is predicted by the Birch–Swinnerton–Dyer conjecture, and the non-existence of simple zeros or poles in such quotients.
