LESSONS

In the study of analytic number theory, the behavior of the Riemann zeta function, is of central importance. Understanding the zeros of ζ(s), particularly where they lie in the complex…

Riemann’s famous 1859 article “On the Number of Primes Less Than a Given Quantity” is one of the most influential works in the history of mathematics, particularly in the field of number theory.

In this paper, Bernhard Riemann explores the distribution of prime numbers—a topic that had puzzled mathematicians for centuries. His groundbreaking approach connects the distribution of primes to the properties of the Zeta function, a complex function initially studied in the context of analytic number theory.
