Greenberg's conjectures

Greenberg's conjecture is either of two conjectures in algebraic number theory proposed by Ralph Greenberg. Both are still unsolved as of 2021. (Wikipedia).

What is the Riemann Hypothesis?

This video provides a basic introduction to the Riemann Hypothesis based on the the superb book 'Prime Obsession' by John Derbyshire. Along the way I look at convergent and divergent series, Euler's famous solution to the Basel problem, and the Riemann-Zeta function. Analytic continuation

A (compelling?) reason for the Riemann Hypothesis to be true #SOME2

A visual walkthrough of the Riemann Zeta function and a claim of a good reason for the truth of the Riemann Hypothesis. This is not a formal proof but I believe the line of argument could lead to a formal proof.

Number theory Full Course [A to Z]

Number theory (or arithmetic or higher arithmetic in older usage) is a branch of pure #mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and integer-valued functions. Number theorists study prime numbers as well as the properties of objects made out of integers (for example, ratio

Mertens Conjecture Disproof and the Riemann Hypothesis | MegaFavNumbers

#MegaFavNumbers The Mertens conjecture is a conjecture is a conjecture about the distribution of the prime numbers. It can be seen as a stronger version of the Riemann hypothesis. It says that the Mertens function is bounded by sqrt(n). The Riemann hypothesis on the other hand only require

A Beautiful Proof of Ptolemy's Theorem.

Ptolemy's Theorem seems more esoteric than the Pythagorean Theorem, but it's just as cool. In fact, the Pythagorean Theorem follows directly from it. Ptolemy used this theorem in his astronomical work. Google for the historical details. Thanks to this video for the idea of this visual

The Pattern to Prime Numbers?

In this video, we explore the "pattern" to prime numbers. I go over the Euler product formula, the prime number theorem and the connection between the Riemann zeta function and primes. Here's a video on a similar topic by Numberphile if you're interested: https://youtu.be/uvMGZb0Suyc The

On exceptional zero conjecture (Mazur-Tate-Teitelbaum) by Srilakshmi Krishnamoorthy

12 December 2016 to 22 December 2016 VENUE : Madhava Lecture Hall, ICTS Bangalore The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture is a striking example of conjectures in number theory, specifically in arithmetic geometry, that has abundant numerical evidence but not a complete general solution.

Mahesh Kakde: Brumer-Stark units and a conjecture of Gross

The existence of Brumer-Stark unit is guaranteed by the Brumer-Stark conjecture. A conjecture of Dasgupta gives an explicit p-adic analytic formula for these units. An approach to this explicit formula is given by the tower of fields conjecture of Gross. After recalling these conjecture an
