Dept. of Mathematics, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute (RKMVERI) has organised an colloquium on “Value distribution of L-functions” by Professor Jörn Steuding, University of Würzburg, Germany on 09 July 2021.

Title: Value distribution of L-functions

Abstract

The distribution of values of L-functions plays a central role in analytic number theory. One aspect is a remarkable approximation property, called universality, first discovered by Voronin in the 1970s: appropriate shifts of the Riemann zeta-function approximate any analytic non-vanishing target function. This result has been generalized in various ways. In this talk we shall discuss applications of “joint universality” (simultaneous approximation) to the distributions of zeros.
