Time：14:00-15:00, Tuesday, March 26 2024
Venue：E4-233
Speaker：Wenqiang Xu, Stanford University
Biography:Wenqiang Xu is a 5th year PhD student in math at Stanford University, extremely fortunate to be advised by Prof. Kannan Soundararajan and Prof. Jacob Fox. He is interested in analytic, combinatorial and probabilistic number theory; arithmetic combinatorics, probabilistic combinatorics and their intersections with discrete probability.
Title：Recent progress on random multiplicative functions
Abstract：Multiplicative functions are fundamental arithmetic functions in number theory, including Mobius function, Dirichlet characters etc. Random multiplicative functions are random models which have been used to study multiplicative functions. In this talk, I will survey the recent progress on the subject, and its connection to probability theory and combinatorics as well.
