Mean square of inverses of Dirichlet $L$-functions involving conductors

We deal with negative square moments of Dirichlet $L$-functions. Summing over characters modulo $q$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the negative second moment of $L(1,\chi )$ involving conductors. As an application, we give the improved lower bound on the success probability of the algorithm which recovers a short generator of the input generator of a principal ideal sampled from a specific Gaussian distribution in cyclotomic number fields.
