This is the ninth episode of the RH Saga.

The philosophy of special values is that individual L-function values can hold deep and mysterious information about the underlying number-theoretic objects. Often, such values can be expressed in terms of periods.

The overall aim of RH Saga Season 1 is to map the landscape of L-functions, as a foundation for in-depth exploration of some of the most immortal math problems of all time.

This video is part of a PeakMath project.
