Abstract

We prove an analogue of Selberg’s zero density estimate for $\zeta(s)$ that holds for any $\textrm{GL}_2$ L-function. We use this estimate to study the distribution of the vector of fractional parts of $\gamma\boldsymbol{\alpha}$ , where $\boldsymbol{\alpha}\in\mathbb{R}^n$ is fixed and $\gamma$ varies over the imaginary parts of the nontrivial zeros of a $\textrm{GL}_2$ L-function.
