Description

Alberto Perelli
Prime numbers are the atoms that form the base of the numerical system's structure, yet despite their apparent simplicity and the efforts of generations of mathematicians, many problems relating to them still await a solution. This lecture is designed to acquaint the audience with some of the more interesting properties and the still unresolved problems involving prime numbers. They have been an object of study for pure mathematicians for hundreds of years, but we shall also be seeing how the situation began to change radically in the 1970s.
