Lethbridge Number Theory and Combinatorics Seminar
Monday, March 11
12 to 12:50 p.m.

Peng-Jie Wong (University of Lethbridge)
On Siegel Zeros
Siegel zeros (or Landau-Siegel zeros) are potential counterexamples to the generalised Riemann hypothesis (for L-functions). Such zeros, if exist, have to be "very close" to 1 over the complex plane.
In this talk, we will discuss some results concerning Siegel zeros and their applications.
If time permits, we will talk about the corresponding "Siegel-Walfisz theorems" for certain L-functions.
