Abstract

This article examines some of the connections between random matrix theory (RMT) and number theory, including the modelling of the value distributions of the Riemann zeta function and other L-functions as well as the statistical distribution of their zeros. Number theory has been used in RMT to address seemingly disparate questions, such as modelling mean and extreme values of the Riemann zeta function and counting points on curves. One thing in common among the applications of RMT to number theory is the L-function. The statistics of the critical zeros of these functions are believed to be related to those of the eigenvalues of random matrices. The article first considers the truth of the generalized Riemann hypothesis before discussing the values of the Riemann zeta function, the values of L-functions, and further areas of interest with respect to the connections between RMT and number theory
