DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Timothy Browning\nhosted by Tamas Hausel\nAbstract: Th
 e basic tension between addition and multiplication has kept humans in
 terested in integers for millennia. It is hardly surprising that prime 
 numbers\, the so-called atoms of arithmetic\, lie at the heart of several 
 schemes to detect or communicate withdistant civilisations. There are many
  interesting sequences of integers that reflect the behaviour of primes i
 n one way or another. In this colloquium I'll talk about some special s
 equences drawn from the set {-1\,+1} and recent attempts to identify rand
 omness in them. I'll also discuss how similar ideas yield insight into ba
 sic questions about the existence of integer solutions to random polynomi
 al equations.  This talk will be accessible to non-mathematicians.
