Several prominent tech figures have been claiming the Hodge Conjecture (another Millennium problem) has been solved. How big is this?
>>
hodge was suppose to be one of the easier ones
>>
>>17051773
Depends on what the solution is.

Proof the Hodge Conjecture is true? Very significant in algebraic geometry.

A counterexample? Not particularly surprising, probably just indicates the statement of the Hodge conjecture needs to be restricted more.
>>
>>17051807
If it's true no way AI proved it.

Fuck no... not the hodge twins conjecture wtf brossss

I wish it was the Riemann Hypothesis instead so that mathematicians would really lose their minds because they've been hyping up this problem as the hardest thing ever.
>>
>>17052025
>Riemann Hypothesis
It is by far the most useful conjecture. But the hardest one is collatz conjecture.
Mathfags did everything to prove it with zero progress.
>>
>>17051773
Not very. All those math problems are useless.
>>
>>17052036
>most useful conjecture
no it is not. Yang Mill's is way more important and has deep implications for particle physics and if P=NP is true it would have the biggest implications. Riemman hypothesis would open new research avenues in number theory but number theory is mostly worthless
>>
what are the actual real world benefits of proving them?
>>
>>17052040
>no it is not.
The whole cryptography literally depends on it being true dumbass.
>>
>>17052040
>if P=NP is true
don't we all sort of "know" it's not true, and we're just waiting for someone to actually prove it? I doubt there's many people who actually understand what both versions mean and imply, and really think P=NP lol
like, if you were to bet on it...
>>
>>17052040
>Yang Mill's is way more important and has deep implications for particle physics
nta but no it's not. Physicists just consider it to be true already. They're not waiting for any proof. Ultimately, none of these problems are useful except to mathematics itself.
>>
>>17052040
>and if P=NP is true it would have the biggest implications.
There is a zero percent chance that P equals NP
literally nothing suggests that, not even a little.
>>
>>17052042
funny that cryptography also depends on p=np not being true, and not just that, but any other way of coming up with cryptography besides prime numbers which the riemann hypothesis seems overspecialized for
>>
>>17052040
I find it so funny how this board underestimate P=NP implication. It's the end to all. And I mean to everyone be stemcel or humanitycel or neetcuck.
>>
>>17052053
care to explain for someone with brain damage? :(
>>
>>17052048
>>17052053
P != NP, so no need to dream about things that doesn't exist.
>>
>>17052054
If P=NP computers can basically do magic. They do many magical things but this is like solving all problems we have at once.
>>
>>17052053
>>17052054
It's not the end to anything. Even if every NP can be solved in polynomial time, that says nothing about how efficiently it can be done.

>>
>>17052056
I read a bit tell me if I got it
the difficulty of testing a solution implies the difficulty of finding the solution?
so if P = NP easy testing = easy finding? (somehow)
but if not then they are not related

It's like trying to find a general algorithm for the ontology of the word problem itself
>>
>>17052053
>I find it so funny how this board underestimate P=NP implication
If there were a way to solve 3SAT in polynomial time, we probably would have found it already, if not humans, then AI, especially given how strong it has become at competitive programming(a year ago). You can brute-force the shit out of it.
The fact that nothing has been found suggests two things: either 3SAT is solvable in polynomial time, but the algorithm is stupidly complicated and probably has some ridiculous complexity like O(n^10) or worse, making it practically useless anyway, or 3SAT simply isn’t in P.
>>
>>17052059
It's the next most likely thing after P != NP.
>>
If Hodge is solved, doesn't that mean we can solve for the shape of the universe?
>>
>>17052073
Stop trying to ragebait me. It's working.
>>
>>17051773
I'm 100% sure that it wasn't solved.

neurofag here. this isnt real. its some philosophy bunk.

The Yang-Mills problem is not just the mass gap question itself. The problem requires the actual construction of a mathematically rigorous non-perturbative quantum Yang-Mills theory.

The kind of construction would definitely impact physics.
>>
>>17052165
so tired of the philosocuck slop. they repeat a bunch of old nonsense, and in reality almost all of them are zealots trying to pass as intellectuals
>>
>>17052042
it doesn't you redditard brainleteer
>>
>>17052168
Making quantum field theories rigorous is irrelevant for the same reason getting a singularity from Navier-Stokes is irrelevant. Both are approximations to something deeper; it's just that in particle physics nobody knows what the deeper theory is yet.
>>
>>17052201
Having a proper formulation of a non-perturbative quantum Yang-Mills theory is definitely not irrelevant.

p=np is factually irrelevant.
"oh yes, p=np and the lowest p is O(N^tree(3))"
vs
"p isn't np"
vs
"Taylor's theorem states that p=np for finite values, we only care about asymptotics if the asymptote is reached this millennium"
