He declined the Fields Medal and Millennium Prize because they refused to include the man whose work his proof was built upon. Also, not all the problems are over 100 years old. P vs NP is a few decades old.
@@redsalt69you took the time to watch a video about math then scroll through the comments of the math video and respond to a comment about the math video you sir are the 🤓
Bro imagine trying so hard to one up your bro in math but you're at such a big a stalemate that you have to casually solve one of the 7 hardest math problems in the world. And then you casually turn down the prize bc beating bro is more important to you. Mad respect 👍
This is the definition of school smart tbh, bro could’ve won life and rejected it. He got literally more popular because he rejected the money rather than taking it
Theyre very hard to solve.. not impossible. The host knew he got the correct answer because every math student and every mathematician shows their proof and explanation, don't they?
If I were him and I didn't want the money which let's be honest I definitely would want the money but if I didn't I would just say no give it to some random charity
Math community and organization, it’s like a prize pool that’s been increased over time to incentivize the best mathematician to dedicate time to solving it
