Abstract

This is a brief summary of a seminar talk, with the same title, delivered at the CRM—Barcelona in October, 2019. We discuss here some of the recent bounds for objects related to the Riemann zeta-function and prime gaps via the use of Fourier analysis machinery. Certain interesting Fourier optimization problems come into play, naturally related to our number theoretical entities. This is based on a joint work with M. Milinovich and K. Soundararajan.

    In fact, this was our initial approach for the result that later became [4, Theorem 4].
