    The equation is wrong, but it appears to be correct if entered in a calculator with 10 significant figures. [192] In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Royale", Captain Picard states that the theorem is still unproven in the 24th century. The proof was released five years after the episode originally aired. [193]

    The Millennium Prize Problems are seven well-known complex mathematical problems selected by the Clay Mathematics Institute in 2000. The Clay Institute has pledged a US $1 million prize for the first correct solution to each problem.

  8. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The proof is based on the distribution of parity vectors and uses the central limit theorem. In 2019, Terence Tao improved this result by showing, using logarithmic density , that almost all (in the sense of logarithmic density) Collatz orbits are descending below any given function of the starting point, provided that this function diverges to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiles's_proof_of_Fermat's...

    Fermat's Last Theorem, formulated in 1637, states that no three positive integers a, b, and c can satisfy the equation + = if n is an integer greater than two (n > 2).. Over time, this simple assertion became one of the most famous unproved claims in mathematics.
