quick reminder: NTS today

[William Stein]

This is a quick reminder that Jon Bober's NTS is today at 3:30pm in
Padelford C401:

= Number Theory Seminar (2011-10-06): Computations of the Riemann zeta

Jon Bober (University of Washington)

== Abstract ==

I'll give a historical overview of computations of the zeta function
on the critical line and then describe some recent computations from
the past year. Mostly this will focus on an implementation of Ghaith
Hiary's $O(t^{1/3})$ method for computing $\zeta(1/2 + it)$ and
computations that Hiary and I have been running using it. Highlights
will include the $10^{32}$nd zero, values of $|\zeta(1/2 + it)|$
larger than 14000, and some record observations of irregularities in
the distribution of zeros.
