The seemingly random distribution of prime numbers has confounded some of the best mathematical minds for centuries. But the Riemann hypothesis, which relates to the zeros in a mathematical function, may hold the answer. It appears to show exactly where we can expect a prime number to appear, the only problem is, no one has yet been able to prove the hypothesis.
In this video we’ll explore prime numbers, explain the enigmatic zeta function and show how this mathematical proof may reveal a deeper truth about the universe.
