Zero-Density Concentration for Dirichlet Polynomials

We prove that broad families of finite Dirichlet sums exhibit deterministic concentration of normalized vertical zero density on a single line. The main result gives a general criterion under which the normalized Jessen potentials converge locally uniformly to a piecewise-linear convex function with a single corner. The associated normalized measures describing the distribution of real parts of zeros in vertical mean density then converge weakly to a Dirac mass. Thus, for each fixed truncation, zeros may occupy a nontrivial range of real parts, while asymptotically their normalized vertical density concentrates on one line. The proof combines the finite Bohr lift with a translation-uniform anti-concentration estimate for isolated prime coordinates. We apply the criterion to partial sums of the Riemann zeta function, fixed Dirichlet $L$-functions, and primitive holomorphic Hecke eigenforms of fixed level, trivial Dirichlet character, and without complex multiplication. The concentration line is $\mathrm{Re}s=1\mathrm{/}2$ in the normalized setting and becomes $\mathrm{Re}s=k\mathrm{/}2$ for the classical Fourier coefficients of a form of weight $k$.
