"Eigenvalue statistics and lattice points"
One of the more challenging problems in spectral theory and mathematical physics today is to understand the statistical distribution of eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a compact manifold.
There are now several challenging conjectures about these, originating in the physics literature.
I will describe what is conjectured and what is known the very simple case of the flat torus, where the problems amount to counting lattice points in annuli and have a definite arithmetic flavour.
