Speakers and Syllabus 

A fundamental object of study in Analytic number theory is the distribution of primes. Many problems in mathematics require the techniques of analytic number theory.   Analytic number theory is extensively used in cryptography. The aim of this school is to equip researchers with the fundamental techniques and tools of analytic number theory, expose them to current developments in the subject and show them some future directions.
