• Abstract: In this paper we study the connections of three paradigms in number theory: the adelic formulation of the Riemann zeta function, the Weil explicit formula and the concepts of the so called probabilistic number theory initiated by Harald Bohr. We give a different reformulation, rooted in the adelic framework, of the theory of distribution values of the Riemann zeta function. By introducing the Bohr compactification of the real numbers as a natural probability space for this theory, we show that the Weil explicit sum can be expressed in terms of covariances and expected values attached to random variables defined on this space. Moreover, we express the explicit formula as a limit of spectral integrals attached to operators defined on the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions on the Bohr compactification. This gives a probabilistic and a geometrical interpretation of the Weil explicit formula.

  We study the propagator of the $1+1$ dimensional Salpeter Hamiltonian, describing a relativistic quantum particle with no spin. The analytical extension of the Hamiltonian in the complex plane allows us to formulate the equivalent problem, namely the B"aumer equation. This B"aumera corresponds to the Green function of a relativistic diffusion process that interpolates between Cauchy for small times and Gaussian diffusion for large times.

  We investigate the conditional distributions of two Banach space valued, jointly Gaussian random variables. We show that their means and covariances can be determined by a general finite dimensional approximation scheme. We discuss how our approximation scheme can be implemented in several classes of important Banach spaces.

  We show that quantum de Finetti construction has a universal property as a categorical limit. This allows us to pass canonically between categorical treatments of finite dimensional quantum theory and the infinite dimensional. We also show that the same categorical analysis also justifies a continuous de Finetti theorem for classical probability.
