| Title: | The Montgomery-Hooley Theorem and its generalizations |
| Seminar: | Algebra and Number Theory Seminar |
| Speaker: | Robert Vaughan, Penn State University |
| Abstract: |
| This theorem is often called the Barban-Davenport-Halberstam theorem but they only proved weak versions. It gives the asympotics for the mean square of the error term in the prime number theorem for arithmetic progressions. I will give an overview of this theorem and related theorems and generalizations. There are still some interesting open questions. |
