In upcoming papers by Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer there appear conjectural formulas for averages, over a family, of ratios of products of shifted L ‐functions. In this paper we will present various applications of these ratios conjectures to a wide variety of problems that are of interest in number theory, such as lower order terms in the zero statistics of L ‐functions, mollified moments of L ‐functions and discrete averages over zeros of the Riemann zeta function. In particular, using the ratios conjectures we easily derive the answers to a number of notoriously difficult computations.
