Distribution of zeros and zero-density estimates for the derivatives of $L$-functions attached to cusp forms

Abstract: Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form of weight $k$ with respect to $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ which is a normalized Hecke eigenform, $L_f(s)$ the $L$-function attached to the form $f$. In this paper, we shall give the relation of the number of zeros of $L_f(s)$ and the derivatives of $L_f(s)$ using Berndt's method, and an estimate of zero-density of the derivatives of $L_f(s)$ based on Littlewood's method.
