Quantum Mechanics, Operator Theory and the Riemann Zeta function

2012, Jun 17 -- Jun 23

Organizers:
J.P. Keating (U. Bristol, UK)
J.C. Lagarias (U. Michigan, USA)
G. Sierra (CSIC-UAM, Spain)

The goal of this workshop is to discuss the recent developments in a wide range of topics at the intersection of Number Theory, Operator Theory and Quantum Chaos. The interplay between these disciplines have a long tradition which goes back to the relation between Random Matrix Theory and the statistical properties of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function and other L-functions. The conference is intended to gather mathematicians and physicists in order to allow their interaction and fruitful discussions. The organization can offer a limited amount of grants for students to cover the lodgement and fees. Any application for a grant must be accompanied by a CV.

The talks are scheduled to start on June 18th in the morning and finish in June 22nd around noon. The speakers and participants are expected to come on June 17th and leave on June 23rd.
