    The fact that you put the most important open problem in mathematics second in the video (as opposed to first or last) just tickles me for some reason.

    The first and fourth problems are generally understood as problems in algebra, not analysis.
    The derivative is here just the linear operator sending xⁿ to nxⁿ⁻¹, for n non-negative integers.
    Someone under this comment made the valid point that these problems are still very likely to be solved using analysis.
    Most algebraic problems have the nice property of being true in "general" (char 0) if and only if they are true over the complex numbers.

      Was just about to say that. As much as I enjoy the author's videos, confusing calculus with algebra reveals a poor understanding of maths
      Especially given that the author mentions himself the generalization of Casas-Alvero to fields of char 0. Which is clearly not calculus-related

      ​@mm18382 From what I gather (I could be misinformed) even generalizing to complex numbers makes it unsolved. So there is an unsolved complex analysis problem, even if that is not the most general case of the unsolved conjecture.

    • @tepsoram
      @tepsoram 3 місяці тому +4

      It seems that the conjecture is false in fields of prime characteristic and moreover, if it is true over the field of complex numbers, then it is true for all fields of characteristic zero. (See EMS Newsletter of June, 2011, available online). These are apparently the main reasons for regarding it as a problem most likely to be resolved by analytic rather than algebraic methods.

  • @lepidoptera9337
    @lepidoptera9337 3 місяці тому

    I have no idea why the Casas-Alvero conjecture is supposed to be a problem of calculus. Calculus requires that we can modify functions smoothly in a neighborhood of any point. Such a modification leaves the space of polynomial functions and thus invalidates the assumptions of the conjecture that f is a polynomial function. In other words, the polynomial functions are not covering the space of all functions. Not even remotely close.

It's the only possible reason why -1 plugged in for s shows -1/12. The one I definitely solved is Prime Number Distribution which has to do with incremental increases and compounding.

You just sort of ramble and look at specific cases, a very tedious and actually impossible process to prove something(literally about something that's infinite lol).
