An l-series is a type of complex function associated with number theory and arithmetic geometry, particularly linked to algebraic objects like elliptic curves. These series help in understanding the distribution of prime numbers and can provide deep insights into the properties of elliptic curves through their L-functions, which are central to various conjectures in modern mathematics, including the famous Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture.
congrats on reading the definition of l-series. now let's actually learn it.
