It would be huge news if true. Unfortunately, arXiv is not peer reviewed. Thus it needs to be thoroughly examined before it has any merit. I have no idea if anyone is actually looking at this particular claim. Non-peer reviewed claims are not particularly uncommon. This page lists many that have yet to be verified or debunked: http://www.win.tue.nl/~gwoegi/P-versus-NP.htm http://www.win.tue.nl/~gwoegi/P-versus-NP.htm Sadly, it seems many (most?) mathematicians do not want to even bother looking at claims made by people not already known to be experts in the area. http://www.wisdom.weizmann.ac.il/~oded/p-vs-np.html http://www.wisdom.weizmann.ac.il/~oded/p-vs-np.html It is too bad, but I imagine no one will bother verifying or debunking this. edit: as pointed out above, he references wikipedia. I take that back about it being too bad no one will ever look at this. Not to offend, but citing sources is basic research practice in any area.
