Abstract: I will discuss the joint moments of the Riemann zeta-function and its derivative, and the corresponding joint moments of the characteristic polynomials of random unitary matrices and their derivatives.

Abstract: Drinfeld modules represent the function field analogue of the theory of complex multiplication. They were introduced as "elliptic modules" by Vladimir Drinfeld in the 1970s in the course of proving the Langlands conjectures for GL(2) over global function fields. Drinfeld modules of rank 2 exhibit very similar behaviour to elliptic curves: they are classified as ordinary or supersingular, support isogenies and their duals, and their endomorphism rings have an analogous structure. Their isomorphism classes are parameterized by j-invariants, and Drinfeld modular polynomials can be used to compute their isogeny graphs whose ordinary connected components take the shape of volcanos. While the rich analytic and algebraic theory of Drinfeld modules has undergone extensive investigation, very little has been explored from a computational perspective. This research represents the first foray in this direction, introducing an algorithm for computing Drinfeld modular polynomials and isogeny graphs.

This is joint work with Perlas Caranay and Matt Greenberg, as well as ongoing research with Edgar Pacheco Castan. Some familiarity with elliptic curves is expected for this talk, but no prior knowledge of Drinfeld modules is assumed.
