Abstract

Let f denote a normalized Maass cusp form for SL(2, ℤ), which is an eigenfunction of all the Hecke operators T(n) as well as the reflection operator \( T_{ - 1} :z \to - \bar z \). We obtain a zero-density result of the L-function attached to f near σ = 1. This improves substantially the previous results in this direction.
