Extractions: L-functions, starting from Riemann's zeta function and continuing to the modern automorphic L-function have played a central role in number theory. These lectures will focus on recent developments in the analytic theory of such functions. A key technique which is at the heart of these advances is based on the formation and analysis of families of L-functions. There are numerous applications of these developments to number theory, combinatorics and mathematical physics. We will describe two in detail. One is the solution of Hilbert's eleventh problem which asks about the representability of integers in a number field by an integral quadratic form. The other is to eigenfunctions on an arithmetic surface and in particular problems in quantum chaos. Princeton University The talks will state some of the main unsolved problems on the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluids, and sketch the proofs of some of the main results known so far on these and related equations. I hope to get through the main ideas in the proofs of the Beale-Kato-Majda theorem and results of Constantin, Majda and me on breakdown of Euler solutions, the work of Sheffer, Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg and F. H. Lin on Navier-Stokes, and recent results by D. Cordoba and me on breakdown scenarios. Also, I hope to state precisely some problems arising from Kolmogorov's ideas on turbulence.

Extractions: Some of these problems seem very simple, but end up with no simple proof or solution to them. As an example, Fermat's Last Theorem was very simple, but it took hundreds of years and some parts from very advanced branches of mathematics to solve it. So if one seems simple, don't try to solve it unless you know a lot of math.

SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) A publicity-shy Russian researcher who labors in near-seclusion may have solved one of mathematics' oldest and most abstruse problems, the Poincare Conjecture. Evidence has been mounting since November 2002 that Grigori "Grisha" Perelman has cracked the 100-year-old problem, which seeks to explain the geometry of three-dimensional space. If Perelman succeeded, he could be eligible for a $1 million prize offered by the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Clay Mathematics Institute, formed to identify the world's seven toughest math problems. Mathematicians around the world have been checking Perelman's work in search of the kind of flaws that have sunk the many other supposed solutions to a problem first presented by the French mathematician Henri Poincare in 1904. "This is arguably the most famous unsolved problem in math and has been for some time," said Bruce Kleiner, a University of Michigan math professor reviewing Perelman's work.

Extractions: x n + y n = z n for integer powers n greater than 2? The French jurist and mathematician Pierre de Fermat claimed the answer was "no", and in 1637 scribbled in the margins of a book he was reading (by Diophantus) that he had "a truly marvelous demonstration of this proposition which the margin is too narrow to contain". This tantalizing statement (that there are no such triples) came to be known as Fermat's Last Theorem even though it was still only a conjecture, since Fermat never disclosed his "proof" to anyone. Many special cases were established, such as for specific powers, families of powers in special cases. But the general problem remained unsolved for centuries. Many of the best minds have sought a proof of this conjecture without success. Finally, in the 1993, Andrew Wiles, a mathematician who had been working on the problem for many years, discovered a proof that is based on a connection with the theory of
Extractions: This is a fascinating and very well-written book about a singular problem in mathematics history. Derbyshire presents a look at the history of the Riemann hypothesis (or is it "conjecture"? Derbyshire asks, as an aside, what the real difference is between the two, in mathematical terminology) the people and their political context as well as the equation and efforts to prove it. As a blessing to those of us who are not hard-core mathematicians, Derbyshire takes the approach of alternating chapters between (even numbered chapters) math and (odd chapters) people and context. This gives the effect of telling two intimately linked stories simultaneously, and keeping the reader in just a bit of suspense in each while telling the other. I found myself enjoying each of the two tales, yet impatient to see where the other was going next.
