Riemann hypothesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Riemann hypothesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The Riemann hypothesis implies results about the distribution of prime numbers that are in some ways as good as possible. Along with suitable generalizations, it is considered by many mathematicians to be the most important unresolved problem in pure mathematics (Bombieri 2000). Since it was formulated, it has withstood concentrated efforts from many outstanding mathematicians, though several arguments such as Deligne's proof of the Riemann hypothesis over finite fields, and extensive computer calculations verifying that the first 10 trillion zeros lie on the critical line, suggest that it is probably true."
