Brownian motion is a stochastic process used to model random phenomena, such as stock prices or particles moving in a fluid. The Riemann zeta function is a complex analytic function. Two different areas of mathematics. So, why does the Riemann zeta function keep appearing in the study of Brownian motion?

This video looks at some of the surprising ways that Riemann’s zeta function appears with Brownian motion.
