Description
Abstract: Dirichlet proved that there are infinitely many primes in an
arithmetic progression of positive integers with no common factor. The
proof is a mixture of analysis and algebra, and will depend on analytic
properties of "Dirichlet L-Functions". We will first look at several
examples and then see how to extend the proof to the general case.
