Lethbridge Number Theory and Combinatorics Seminar
Date:
October 31, 2016
Time:
12:00-12:50pm
Lecturer(s):
Amir Akbary
Location:
University of Lethbridge
Topic:
Value-distribition of quadratic L-functions
Description (in plain text format):
We describe a theorem of M. Mourtada and V. Kumar Murty on the distribution of values of the logarithmic derivative of the L-functions attached to quadratic characters. Under the assumption of the generalized Riemann Hypothesis they prove the existence of a density function that gives the distribution of values of the logarithmic derivative of such L-functions at a fixed real point greater than 1/2. Following classical results of Wintner, we also describe how this distribution can be described as an infinite convolution of local distributions.
