How are prime numbers and the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function related?
That's very interesting. How do the nontrivial zeros relate to prime numbers specifically?
The nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function are closely related to the spacing between prime numbers. The distribution of primes is closely tied to the behavior of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function, and understanding these zeros is key to understanding the age-old question of whether there is any discernible pattern to the occurrence of prime numbers.
