Over the past few days, the mathematics world has been abuzz over the news that Sir Michael Atiyah, the famous Fields Medalist and Abel Prize winner, claims to have solved the Riemann hypothesis. If ...

The Riemann Hypothesis is one of the most famous problems in that set. It’s about prime numbers. That’s any whole number that can only be divided by 1 and itself – like 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11.

Hyderabad: It was a chance discovery, says Dr Kumar Eswaran, a mathematical physicist in the city, who claims to have found the solution to the Riemann Hypothesis, a millennium problem in mathematics.

Did a team of mathematicians just take a big step toward answering a 160-year-old, million-dollar question in mathematics? Maybe. The crew did solve a number of other, smaller questions in a field ...

A world-renowned retired mathematician claims he has proof to solve a math problem dating back to 1859, potentially worth $1 million. Michael Atiyah, a mathematician who has won several awards ...

The Riemann hypothesis is one of seven math problems that can win you $1 million from the Clay Mathematics Institute if you can solve it. British mathematician Sir Michael Atiyah claimed on Monday ...

A top mathematician has claimed that he has the answer to the Riemann Hypothesis, a 160-year-old puzzle worth $1 million. In a lecture on Monday, Sept. 24, at the Heidelberg Laureate Forum in Germany, ...

“As far as I am concerned, the Riemann Hypothesis remains open,” said Martin Bridson, president of Clay Mathematics Institute, when asked about the claim by Hyderabad-based Kumar Eswaran of solving ...
