Title: On the Logarithm of the Riemann Zeta-function Near the Nontrivial Zeros

When: Thursday, August 13, 3:55 PM - 5:00 PM IST (GMT + 5:30)

Where: Zoom. Please write to sfandnt@gmail.com to get a link a few hours ahead of time.  


Tea or Coffee: Please bring your own.

Abstract: 


Selberg's central limit theorem is one of the most significant probabilistic results in analytic number theory. Roughly, it states that the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function on and near the critical line has an approximate two-dimensional Gaussian distribution.


In this talk, we will talk about our recent result which states that the distribution of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function near the sequence of the nontrivial zeros has a similar central limit theorem. Our results are conditional on the Riemann Hypothesis and/or suitable zero-spacing hypotheses. They also have suitable generalizations to Dirichlet $L$-functions.
