This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program provides $249,338 to Brigham Young University to support fundamental research on number theory problems and the study of L-functions. The key products and services to be delivered include:

Studying a deep conjecture on rational points on an infinite family of curves known as Erdos-Selfridge curves, using a novel "mass increment" argument inspired by additive combinatorics. The research will also explore new methods for detecting zeros of the Riemann zeta function, including obtaining sharper bounds on the zeta function and deriving new zero-density estimates. In addition to advancing theoretical mathematics, the project will provide research opportunities and mentorship for students, with a focus on recruiting from historically underrepresented groups. The award period is from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2026.
