The most well known probability distribution of probabilities is the Beta distribution. If we have observed $r$ `successes', each having a probability $\theta$, and $n-r$ `failures', each having a probability $1-\theta$. In this paper we…
We study a discrete analogue of the classical multivariate Gaussian distribution. It is supported on the integer lattice and is parametrized by the Riemann theta function. Over the reals, the discrete Gaussian is characterized by the…
The paper describes a method for calculating values of Riemann's Zeta function within the critical strip 0< {\sigma} <1 and on its boundary. The approach is based on the "Alternating Zeta function" {\eta}(s). The actual Riemann Zeta…
This is a survey of recent progress on understanding the value distribution of zeta and L-functions. The article is intended for the 2022 ICM.
The discrete Pareto (or Zeta, Zipf) distribution, arises naturally in modeling rank-frequency data across diverse fields such as linguistics, demography, biology, and computer science. Despite its widespread applicability, goodness-of-fit…
Chaudhry and Qadir obtained new identities for the gamma function by using a distributional representation for it. Here we obtain new identities for the Riemann zeta function and its family by using that representation for them. This also…
We construct variants of the Riemann zeta function with convenient properties and make conjectures about their dynamics; some of the conjectures are based on an analogy with the dynamical system of zeta. More specifically, we study the…
This paper provides a probabilist point of view about some results in analytic number theory. The main tool is the family of Zeta laws, which is a consolation for the non-existence of an uniform law on the set of integers. We prove the…
The GUE Hypothesis, which concerns the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function, is used to evaluate some integrals involving the logarithmic derivative of the zeta-function. Some connections are shown between the GUE Hypothesis…
We continue our investigation of the distribution of the fractional parts of $a \gamma$, where $a$ is a fixed non-zero real number and $\gamma$ runs over the imaginary parts of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We…
We investigate the distribution of the logarithmic derivative of the Riemann zeta-function on the line Re(s)=\sigma, where \sigma, lies in a certain range near the critical line \sigma=1/2. For such \sigma, we show that the distribution of…
Gram's Law describes a pattern that frequently occurs in the distribution of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function along the critical line. Whenever Gram's Law holds true, it reduces the difficulty of computing the…
The paper reviews existing results about the statistical distribution of zeros for the three main types of zeta functions: number-theoretical, geometrical, and dynamical. It provides necessary background and some details about the proofs of…
We study the value-distribution of the Riemann zeta-function and related functions on and near the critical line. Amongst others, we focus on the following: The critical line is a natural boundary of the Voronin-type universality property…
The motion in the complex plane of the zeros to various zeta functions is investigated numerically. First the Hurwitz zeta function is considered and an accurate formula for the distribution of its zeros is suggested. Then functions which…
Using elementary methods we find surprising connections between the values of the Riemann Zeta Function over integers and the fractional parts of rational powers, and a connection between the Riemann Zeta Function and the Prime Zeta…
We investigate existence and properties of discrete mixture representations $P_\theta =\sum_{i\in E} w_\theta(i) \, Q_i$ for a given family $P_\theta$, $\theta\in\Theta$, of probability measures. The noncentral chi-squared distributions…

We investigate the statistical distribution of the zeros of Dirichlet $L$--functions both analytically and numerically. Using the Hardy--Littlewood conjecture about the distribution of prime numbers we show that the two--point correlation…
We introduce a new five-parameter family of size distributions on the semi-finite interval $[x_0, \infty), x_0 \geqslant 0$, with two attractive features. First, it interpolates between power laws, such as the Pareto distribution, and power…
