Session Title:
Recent Perspectives in Random Matrix Theory and Number Theory
Abstract:
Mock-Gaussian behaviour is when a smooth counting function (or linear statistic) has its first few moments equal to the moments of a Gaussian distribution, even though it is not a normal distribution. In this lecture we will see that this behaviour holds eigenvalues of random matrices, and analogously for the zeros of the Riemann zeta function and other L-functions. The research presented in this lecture is joint with Zeev Rudnick.
