ABSTRACT
The classical Riemann zeta function has a well-known Euler factorization. This Euler factorization is proved based on the Fundamental Theorem in Arithmetic. As a consequence, Euler found his analytic proof for the well-known theorem that there are infinitely many primes among integers. In this talk, we start with our understanding of the underlying structure of the Euler factorization, and discuss how Robert Langlands discover his conjectures for the modern theory of automorphic forms and the Langlands program, with which Langlands was awarded the 2018 Abel Prize.
