> Most mathematicians also agree that the Langlands Program could help find a proof for the Riemann Hypothesis, probably the most famous unsolved mathematical problem (about the distribution of prime numbers). These problems are just as abstract as Langlands’s own work, however, which means his research program as it was originally conceived has little relevance to everyday life. I dunno, figuring out the Riemann Hypothesis could have some far reaching consequences for our understanding of prime numbers, and therefore cryptography, no?
