Alexandra Florea: Simultaneous non-vanishing of L-functions at the central point (NTWS 295)
Number Theory Web Seminar
The talk focuses on a classical problem concerning whether Dirichlet $L$-functions vanish at their central point within the critical strip. While vanishing can occur for trivial reasons or due to deep arithmetic phenomena like those described by the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, it is genera …
