Solution to one of the “Millennium Prize Problems”
- SherlockeHolmes 11y agoWow this is huge! The PDF is in a language I don't recognize. (not that it'd help)
- ForHackernews 11y agoIs this for real? Who is Shokir Davlatov? Google doesn't show much, he's apparently from Uzbekistan: http://the-newspapers.com/2016/04/10/uzbek-mathematician-said-about-solving-the-problem-of-the-millennium http://the-newspapers.com/2016/04/10/uzbek-mathematician-sai...
- pmar3003 11y agoAfter a rapid search through russian language news I could'nt find much information either, except that he is not listed on the site of his university.
- FreeFull 11y agoI won't hold my breath until this has been sufficiently reviewed by mathematicians, especially Terence Tao, since he has also work done work in this area: http://arxiv.org/abs/1402.0290 http://arxiv.org/abs/1402.0290 .
- breezest 11y agoI will wait and let the mathematicians review the proof.

- JorgeGT 11y agoTime to short ANSYS stocks!
- johnloeber 11y agoThe document hasn't been composed in LaTeX. That's usually a pretty big red flag. However, the other big red flags common to crankwork -- excessive philosophical musing, violation of the lemma-proof-theorem structure -- are absent. I'll wait on some peer-review and hopefully a translation into English.
- raverbashing 11y agoAlso, legitimate papers never are titled/abstracted with only "this is a solution to Famous Problem" but are more specific to what it solves/relates to Example: "Modular elliptic curves and Fermat's Last Theorem"
- paulpauper 11y agooften a proof will hinge on a key conjecture, so the paper is named after the conjecture
- pmar3003 11y agoIs it usual for mathematical papers to be so badly written (layout)?
- johnloeber 11y agoThe author's layout looks pretty normal to me (aside from it not being in LaTeX). For reference, here's a good math paper by Noam Elkies with fairly standard layout: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1601.07541.pdf http://arxiv.org/pdf/1601.07541.pdf
- paulpauper 11y ago12 pages = huge red flag. these type of proofs go into hundred + pages
