Re: Clay math institute prize
Hello… The Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) is a private, non-profit foundation, in Rhode Island. The Institute is "dedicated to increase mathematical knowledge." The institute was founded in 1998 by Landon T. Clay. Harvard mathematician, Arthur Jaffe was the first president of CMI. Millennium Prize Problems The Millennium Prize Problems are seven problems in mathematics that were stated by the Clay Mathematics Institute in 2000. As of June 2014, six of the problems remain unsolved. A correct solution to any of the problems results in a US $1,000,000 prize (Millennium Prize) being awarded by the institute. The seven problems are: • P versus NP • The Hodge conjecture • The Poincaré conjecture - solved, by Grigori Perelman • The Riemann hypothesis • Yang–Mills existence and mass gap • Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness • The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture |
