Random matrix theory and discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function

Number Theory 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

We calculate the discrete moments of the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix, evaluated a small distance away from an eigenangle. Such results allow us to make conjectures about similar moments for the Riemann zeta function, and provide a uniform approach to understanding moments of the zeta function and its derivative.
