The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $246,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program to The Trustees of Princeton University. The grant will support research on two central topics in number theory: the study of Galois groups, which describe the hidden symmetries of solutions of equations, and the study of L-functions, which are powerful tools to count particular types of numbers, including prime numbers. The principal investigator will develop new probabilistic models and new multiple Dirichlet series, and use them to make progress on fundamental number-theoretic problems. The grant also aims to train future mathematicians and develop connections with other areas of mathematics, such as probability theory, topology, and quantum algebra. The award period is from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2027.
