Natural boundaries for Euler products of Igusa zeta functions of elliptic curves. du Sautoy, M International Journal of Number Theory volume 14 issue 8 2317-2331 (03 Jul 2018)
The world turns on symmetry -- from the spin of subatomic particles to the dizzying beauty of an arabesque. But there's more to it than meets the eye. Here, Oxford mathematician Marcus du Sautoy offers a glimpse of the invisible numbers that marry all symmetrical objects.
Research. My work seeks to understand the world of symmetry by using a classical tool from number theory: zeta functions. It involves methods from a wide spectrum of mathematics: p-adic Lie groups, model theory, algebraic geometry, analytic methods and more.
