Abstract

We give a short review of recent progress on determining the order of magnitude of moments $\mathbb{E}|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)|^{2q}$ of random multiplicative functions, and of closely related issues. We hope this can serve as a concise introduction to some of the ideas involved, for those who may not have too much background in the area.
