Ok, so I went to Brian Conrey's lecture last tuesday on Riemann's Hypothesis. It was very interesting and it was fun. A few things that I learned were that Gauss's Guess was that the number(primes < x)~ x/ln(x), and that was also called the prime number theorem, and RH was that Gauss's conjecture is accurate to 1/2 the number of digits of n. He also found that there was a set of numbers intimately connected with the primes. These are the first 9 zeros. Also, the key to understanding the primes is to understand the zeta function. Whis I can't type out, because I don't know the right keys, but I know it. I also found out that my 315 teacher Dr. Li discovered that RH is true iff lambda is greater than or equal to zero. It was a fun and interesting lecture.
Ok, something that I would like to go over today would be anything from this last section of learning that we've been going over. Maybe 8.3 #14 again, that was rushed when I learned it, but if that won't be on the test then that's fine :)
