 On the Characteristic Polynomial of a Random Unitary Matrix   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The analogy between the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix and Riemann's zeta function was first studied by Keating and Snaith in \cite{KS1}.
In particular, we present a range of fluctuation and large deviation results for the logarithm of the characteristic polynomial, as the matrix size tends to infinity.
This naturally leads to the study discrete moments of the derivative of zeta, evaluated at the non-trivial zeros, whose asymptotics are then conjectured from a random matrix calculation.
