It is amazing that new mathematical methods continue to be developed.

These people are Freaks of Nature, and we are all blessed by their existence.

Obama would say he didn’t think that.

I thought that 1+1 = 3 was settled science.

On a less /s note, science (and math which describes it) is the description of the Created Universe (Guess Who created it).

So, of course, wonderments in science and math are just a peek at the God of Creation.

PS. God says 1+1=2 ... settled!!!

And we have a legion of Ivy League and big name colleges that can’t even do big math ... like balancing a budget!!!!

Three of my five sons sit around the dinner table discussing higher level mathematics and consider it entertainment and great fun. Eldest has 4 (simultaneous) degrees in Math, Computer Science, Physics and Greek, Summa Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa (when a junior); another is a Civil Engineer, P.E. now writing complex engineering calcs in C Sharp; the youngest a senior getting a degree in Mechanical Engineering.

I can barely understand what they are talking about - but this is right up their alley - so thanks for the post - sending it on to them. They will love it......

No hope I’ll ever understand it...........

All well and good, but what is the practical application of this mathematical breakthrough? Just wondering...

The text is very technical, but a good basic introduction is the 6 videos by Alan Macdonald starting with this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qEST41kG6Q ...

then a few years study ...

and then off to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2j2Md2DEBU

However, a good non-technical history of Mathematics is this 50 minutes video by John Dersch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsEcpS-hyXw
