Abstract. In 1997, thePauthor proved that the Riemann hypothesis
holds if and only if λn = [1−(1−1/ρ)n ] > 0 for all positive integers n,
where the sum is over all complex zeros of the Riemann zeta function. In
1999, E. Bombieri and J. Lagarias generalized this result and obtained
a remarkable general theorem about the location of zeros. They also
gave an arithmetic interpretation for the numbers λn . In this note, the
author extends Bombieri and Lagarias’ arithmetic formula to Dirichlet
L-functions and to L-series of elliptic curves over rational numbers.
1. Introduction
Let K be a finite field with q elements, and let E be an elliptic curve over
K. In the 1930s, H. Hasse proved the inequality
√
|#E(K) − q − 1| ≤ 2 q,
where #E(K) is the number of K-rational points on E; see [12].
Let a = 1 + q − #E(K) and
LE (s) = 1 − az + qz 2 ,
where z = q −s . By Hasse’s inequality we have
LE (s) = (1 − αz)(1 − βz)
with |α| = |β| =
√
q. Hence

for n = 1, 2, . . .. This estimate implies that all zeros of LE (s) lie on the line
<s = 1/2.
Let
ξ(s) = s(s − 1)π −s/2 Γ(s/2)ζ(s),
where ζ(s) is the Riemann zeta function, and let λζ (n), n = 1, 2, . . . , be a

In 1997, the author obtained the following criterion for the Riemann hypothesis.
Theorem 1 ([9]). All complex zeros of ζ(s) lie on the line <s = 1/2 if
and only if λζ (n) > 0 for n = 1, 2, . . . .
In 1952, A. Weil [13] proved a famous criterion for the validity of the
Riemann hypotheses for number fields. The following is Bombieri’s refinement
of Weil’s criterion.

If fe(x) = x−1 f (x−1 ), the Mellin transform of f ∗ fē is fb(s)fb̄(1 − s). Let gn (x)
be the inverse Mellin transform of 1 − (1 − 1/s)n for n = 1, 2, . . . . E. Bombieri

Hence, the positivity in the author’s criterion has the same meaning as that
in Weil’s criterion.
In 1999, Bombieri and Lagarias obtained the following remarkable theorem.
Theorem 2 (Bombieri-Lagarias [3]). Let R be a set of complex numbers
ρ whose elements have positive integral multiplicities assigned to them, such
that 1 6∈ R and

Let k and N be positive integers, and let χ be a multiplicative character of
modulus N with χ(1) = 1 and χ(−1) = (−1)k . Let Γ be the Hecke congruence
subgroup Γ0 (N ) of level N . We denote by S0 (Γ, k, χ) the space of all cusp
forms of weight k and character χ for Γ. That is, f belongs to S0 (Γ, k, χ) if
and only if f is holomorphic in the upper half-plane H, satisfies

for any function f on H. A function f in S0 (Γ, k, χ) is called a Hecke eigenform
if
Tn f = λ(n)f
for all positive integers n with (n, N ) = 1. The Fricke involution W is defined
by
(W f )(z) = N −k/2 z −k F (−1/N z),
and the complex conjugation operator K is defined by
(Kf )(z) = f¯(−z̄).
Set W̄ = KW . Then f is a newform if it is an eigenfunction of W̄ and of all
the Hecke operators Tn .
Let f be a newform in S0 (Γ, k, χ) normalized so that its Fourier coefficient
is 1. Then it has the Fourier expansion
