The universality phenomenon reveals that certain complex functions arising in number theory—most notably the Riemann zeta‐function and a broad class of L‐functions—are astonishingly rich in analytic ...

It was a good week for physics research as a team from Virginia Tech made a heat discovery that expanded on an 18th-century principle involving ice placed on a hot surface—Jonathan Boreyko and Mojtaba ...

The Riemann Hypothesis is widely regarded as the most important unsolved problem in mathematics. Put forward by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, it concerns the positions of the zeros of the Riemann zeta ...
