PROBLEM. ANALYSIS. SOLUTION.
Welcome to the Department of Mathematics & Computer Science
Our computer science, mathematics and statistics faculty and instructors are top of the line, with credentials to rival other universities in and outside of Canada.
We offer Bachelor of Science undergraduate degrees in Applied Statistics, Computer Science and Mathematics. Both Master's and Doctoral levels of study are also available. Department faculty are currently working with students studying at each of these levels, many of whom are graduate students from around the world. Learn more about our majors and minors.
Undergraduate students may have opportunities to do research projects with our faculty, using modern facilities, for hands-on experience. Several department faculty have independent research programmes supported by agencies such as NSERC and IBM Canada, and at times, there may be a collaboration with other disciplines.
During this unique time in the world, the University of Lethbridge may be a bit restrictive for personal visits, so please take the time to "meet" our faculty and instructors via the buttons directly below. We think you'll see the Department of Mathematics & Computer Science offers a wide range of topics in each of our disciplines, and we're confident you will find something to appeal to your intellectual interests.

Topic: An Introduction to the Riemann Hypothesis and Gaps between Primes
Date: Friday, January 17
Time: 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Location: Markin Hall M1040
Abstract: There is a beautiful connection between the prime numbers and the zeros of Riemann zeta-function in the complex plane, and understanding the distribution of these zeros can lead to remarkable consequences in our understanding of the primes. A famous open problem, known as the Riemann Hypothesis, states that the non-real zeros of the Riemann zeta-function lie on a vertical line. I will motivate this conjecture, describe some evidence for it, and describe some of the consequences it would lead to in our understanding of the primes. In particular, I will describe how to bound on the maximum gap between prime numbers assuming the Riemann Hypothesis which is based on joint work with E. Carneiro (ICTP) and K. Soundararajan (Stanford).
