Probabilistic aspects of the Riemann zeta function
Abstract
A central topic of study in analytic number theory is the behaviour of the Riemann zeta function. Many theorems and conjectures in this area are closely connected to concepts from probability theory. In this talk, we will discuss several results on the typical size of the zeta function on the critical line, over different scales. Along the way, we will see the role that is played by some probabilistic phenomena, such as the central limit theorem and multiplicative chaos.
