Dirichlet character

In analytic number theory and related branches of mathematics, a complex-valued arithmetic function is a Dirichlet character of modulus (where is a positive integer) if for all integers and : 1) i.e. is completely multiplicative.2) (gcd is the Greatest Common Divisor)3) ; i.e. is periodic with period . The simplest possible character, called the principal character, usually denoted , (see below) exists for all moduli: Dirichlet introduced these functions in his 1837 paper on primes in arithmetic progressions. (Wikipedia).

Representation theory: Dirichlet's theorem

In this talk we see how to use characters of finite abelian groups to prove Dirichlet's theorem that there are infinitely many primes in certain arithmetic progressions. We first recall Euler's proof that there are infinitely many primes, which is the simplest case of Dirichlet's proof. T

Weil conjectures 4 Fermat hypersurfaces

This talk is part of a series on the Weil conjectures. We give a summary of Weil's paper where he introduced the Weil conjectures by calculating the zeta function of a Fermat hypersurface. We give an overview of how Weil expressed the number of points of a variety in terms of Gauss sums. T
