- He solved the “problem of the millenia”.
He didn’t accept any rewards.
And is not interested in fame or money.
He chose a very different life. …

he served his purpose to this universe, let him be happy and leave him alone....... and let's find our purpose too...
i do agree your first sentence.Maybe he has perceived his task and go into it after resigning from the faculty
Facts💯💯💯
Professor Hamilton at university California at Berkeley lay down the foundation for problem. Perelman wanted Him and Hamilton to get the million dollars prize. The video do not show the world story. Why he did what he did
Brilliant comment
Your purpose is to comment on the internet
Like everyone else here.
Nothing more. You will die. And never be remembered.
He lived life on his own terms. Respect. How many people can say that about themselves?
Everyone chooses their own path. This is real freedom.
Why all the past tenses. He's alive and well as far as i know.
he's still alive
@@vovahimself Absolutely!!
@@vovahimself I didn't know that.
If he doesn't want to be recognized don't chase him, leave him alone.
These brutes should leave the guy alone.
let them chase him if they want, don´t judge them.
@@bertenqvist7324 Maybe if he agrees to talk/take a photo then yes. But if he's already running away from you and you keep chasing him, that's already harassment my guy 😅
He perhaps solved not onky the math problem, but the ultimate one: the ego/self problem. He became enlightened. A living Buddha.
that's not the case. A deep hunger towards some aspects of the mathematical communities and some of his peers was the reason he refused.
Ridiculous
If he's a Buddha. What's he teaching here?
@@evg67 He doesn't teach. You don't learn.
@@andrewnewest The Buddha has to teach, He has no choice
Man already has something far greater than this world could ever offer, blessed.
What he haves?
@@evg67 He has the freedom from all lies, intrigues and envy in the academic science.
@@andrewnewest That's not so much to be called "blessed" All non-scientists have this. That doesn't make them blessed
That man could have been very rich. But maybe he is smart enough to see the ultimate pointlessness of chasing material wealth.
Like $1 million makes u rich. 😂
With you can barely pay a supercar
In russia this kind of money is enough to be rich, especially 20 years ago
Exactly
@@mike.1everyone dosent share same desires .
@@mike.1 I estimate it as $10 millions in current money. But he could easily make 6 figures yearly in the US now.
Ok I can't help but correct this. The problem he solved is called the Poincare Conjecture not the "millennium prize". The "millennium prize" is the name of a group of incredibly difficult unsolved mathematics problems in which the Poincare Conjecture was one of them. They are actually referred to as "The Millennium Prize Problems" in which anyone who can solve a problem gets 1 million dollars.
Or gets or takes it not! Sorry, can't help falsify this, there's a lot of rumor humor around this wonderful mystic story.
@@markusheler2762 I honestly have no idea what you are talking about.
@@markusheler2762 Lay down the the heroin, bruh.
It was one of the Millennium prize problems. He turned down the prize and a Fields Medal
@@electricpaper269 Yes I am aware it was one of the Millennium Prize problems, I forgot to mention that because I assumed people would figure that out but it's probably best I state it explicitly.
Dude is legit enlightened. No other conclusion.
Facts💯💯💯
Yup, smart enough to desire things that transcend wealth
Reminds me of wittgenstein, who gave away his immense wealth and worked as a doorman so he could focus on his philosophy work.
wittgenstein
I think it's mich easer to focus when you don't have to work 8 hours a day...
wittgenstein
@@user-cp1ku6kr6zikr? I still don’t get why he gave all of his wealth away
Perhaps like his mathematical genius he also could see life as others can't, thus chose a simple life. Don't feel sorry for him, he lived life the way he wanted and not the social norms.
Right!
True
I understand, but theres no way he also stopped studying math, right?
literally the definitive Ubermensch. Contributing to humanity while crafting his own values, not following the herd.
Behold the superman
Ubermensch... This very word is disgusting 🤮
This sums up what a true genius and a wise man is. He was willing to go further to where no one is unable to go just to be able to solve it for mankind for free.
He has shown that not everything can be bought by money. If money and prizes solved everything, then a genius man like him won't be needed at all.
This is the illness of our society, that too much materialism when he showed to the world that he could live less and be abundant in the inside.
When was he homeless ? This is clickbait.
He lives at his mum's, otherwise he would be homeless with no home of his own and no means to provide himself with a home.
Nobody says he's homeless) it's said as homeless
@@spanch1bobrWhat's the difference ? I don't know what you mean but he still lives with his mother.
It’s clickbait chat gpt garbage, but I’ll give it credit for being about someone interesting
@@spanch1bobr Video started from next words: “this homeless man” (few seconds later) “he lives in small apartments” 😂
It is not accurate since he refused cuz a man from japan says he solve it first. At first they thought he copy the demonstration so he was blame of cheating. He get sick from the scientist community and leave everything behind. The refuse of the prize is a call for his integrity. He is in fact the greatest man on earth.
That man was from China
@@anaygautam5356 what happend to that man from china?
Unique Man who does not live by the ways of the world . I truly admire his intelligence and his humility. ❤ Scripture John 2:16
Wow! Truly right!! The Holy Scriptures always have the answer for everything
He has done his contribution to humanity and solved a very difficut mathematical problem. Now he can do qs he pleases
well solving math problem never brought food on people tables..... contribution is relative
In other words, you can't put a price tag to this, but simply accept. And that is satisfyingly enough.
True. The real science doesn't have a price tag.
He's not homeless. He shares an apartment with his mom in St. Petersburg and I think they're both pensioners. He doesn't have any need at all for material goods.
The statement was : he lives *like* a homeless man, not that he is homeless.
@@agnelomascarenhas8990 Well he doesn't live like a homeless person either. The statement was stupid.
that change happened to me 15 years ago when my mom got sick. In 2022 it got worst for her and i felt her end was incoming so i quit everything to be there for her 24/24 with help from my brothers. I never had the need for material or money but it became so much more evident in the last year. Stuff and money will never be more important to me than caring about those i love.
Won the Millenium Prize and the Fields Medal (equivalent of a Nobel in math), but didn’t even show up to receive both…
Actually, a member of the board of the Fields Medal travelled to Perelman's dacha and begged him to accept the award . He responded, "You are disturbing me." Dr. Perelman was picking mushrooms.
The writer Brett Forrest briefly interacted with Perelman in 2012.A reporter who had called him was told: "You are disturbing me. I am picking mushrooms." definitely enlightened
Sounds a bit like "don't disturb my circles..." I had been trying to get some mathematical help from him, but failed, likely by sending my message to Prof. Perelman, somewhere in the suburbs of St. Petersburg, Russia
I really admire this man. He didn't sold himself for money, prizes, show, and fame. What a dignity and enlightenment.
Es un iluminado muy poca gente alcanza estos niveles es de otro mundo él ya trascendió por eso no lo pueden entender
A Beautiful Mind.
Noone is talking about how the 'leading' math professors from United States tried to plagiarise Perelman's work... And Perelman got really frustrated because of this...
This is also why he refused the Field's Medal.
His mane plagiariser was from China, not the USA, all the way round Perelman wanted names of several American mathematitians be included into the list of those who solved the problem.
Mathematician of the mind and soul.
Hey man, wherever you are, thank you
Based. A true man of god. Not the man we deserve, the man we need.
The fact:
Grigori Perelman withdrew from the mathematical community because he was disappointed with its ethical standards after Shing-Tung Yau allegedly downplayed his work and promoted others.
Additionally, that Chinese guys were accused of trying to plagiarize Perelman's proof by incorporating his work into their own without proper credit. WTF😮💨
What a waste of genius talent! The world wouldn't be lost without him but could have been better with his additional contribution.
It would be a good idea to give him as gift a cardboard and a chalk Lol
Why is it when you are smarter than others you are expected to use it to their benefit? Why aren't you out devoting your life to problems?
Maybe he knows something about life that others don't.
once you get it there is no turning back and you see people and society around you differently.
He became a mystic, free from all worldly shackles. 🕉🕉🕉🙏🙏🙏
Im pretty sure people like this have broken the matrix and can move through it and the real world at free will
Matrix is a movie. In real life, US is on the brink of nuclear with Russia, his country.
A modern-day Diogenes of Sinope.
😅😅😅
The only hero I acknowledge after learning about him in 2014. The greatest gift to human progress in the 21st century ❤.
...that is because intellectually, he is so far ahead of everyone . Much respect to you Sir.
Autism helped him be able to solve that mathematical problem and autism also got him living like that. rejecting the money, recognitions and awards, living with his mom etc. Double edge sword
Lol only in the movies. He was never autistic. He is just a genius
He was not crazy, but the Western scientific community failed him when they wanted to attribute his work to others and were late in acknowledging the validity of his research. He thought that the Western scientific community was clean, but he was shocked by the reality.
The True Genius
He understood that life is a sacred gift, and is not meant for selling.
When we sell our freedom, we sell our lives.
One can do service and sacrifices, without selling oneself.
How do you justify your claim? Also, how do you equate "solving a math problem" to "life"?
I know well about this genius. He is far more than himself. He solved the Henry poincre conjecture.
I dont know thos putes me in tears. Wow he is phenomenal
He did the maths for the sake of maths, not driven by some huge ego demanding rewards. He's not Murray Gell-Man
Definitely not a psychopath !
Best comment.
Why don't you say he is Russian? Why do you avoid mentioning he lives in Saint Petersburg?
Why don't you say he is Jewish? When you Russians have a bad person you say he is Jewish, but when he is greatest scientist or artist, writer, you say he is Russian. Double standards.
The subject of Millennium prize is about a mathematician, not their country or flag. Most people are aware he is Russian (and Jewish) etc.
Atleast he was offered everything.
Yes. His mission is complete and from now on movement from order to disorder If you have all your wishes fulfilled, you have what could be called psychological entropy, that is death in an equable tepidity. that is the great calamity of a person where there is nothing left to be asked
Do you feel the same way?
He doesn't follow common rules in life, he makes his own rules.
> solves point carré conjecture
> denies every prize
> refuses to elaborate
> lives as a homeless man
GIGA CHAD
Poincaré is the name of a French mathematician.
Perelman got a job - a research position - in Sweedan, he wanted to change his occupation and life.
These type of people inspire us ❤
Omg hats off to this man
A great response to present time silly celebrety society based on competition and nonsense awards
Those who go beyond the norms of the everyday populous with their extraordinary intellect seek that which goes beyond any monetary gains.
This man: genuinely genius and don’t want to be famous and rich
Me: genuinely stupid and want to be famous and rich
Now I know why i wanted to be rich and famous i guess
He took the term "yurodivy" seriously XD
Beautiful!!! Don’t want to become a display scientist, but to help people.
He didn't earn money instead he earned heart of people like me.
Your heart won’t pay his rent
Awesome role model
So whoever refuses money and fame is what? His brain is worth more than any money. This pathetic world is going nowhere. Every admiration to truly great genius who just wants to be left alone.
He has the right to be different
My respect for all them!
His life did not end!
@Positive How do you know he is or was homeless? Where did you that information from?
You can be a genius and be mentally at the same time.
By not accepting the price he made Himself a miracle people will still talk about in 200 years. Smart guy
He is not concerned about being recognised in the first place.
Actually he rejected from award because not agreed with that math society, he criticized it for non professionalism.
Good morning, most scientists in world also not recognize Nobel prize be similar reasons - politically motivated (but if Nobel award commission give awards to people who are agreed to get, because commission can select from a lot of inventions, in this situation they had no options, because it is incredible rare and too famous event 😂).
The difference between him and, say, Cédric Villani is that CV sees his role as a spokesman and promoter of math, while GP is not taking on the role. Sure, some "famous" scientists get wrapped up in the fame and money, but most just see themselves as people who address the public. Einstein and von Neumann didn't ham it up, rather, were as helpful as possible in explaining their work.
The Best ever
Занятный парень. Было бы интересно с ним бухнуть в коммуналке дня на 3. Получить физмат. образование.
Mathematics was as pure as it gets for him - why sully it with something like money. Deep respect.
How would money sully it?
@@YOTSUBA_desu It's the difference between doing something out of love and doing it for a paycheck ... that is the best way I can put it.
@@trentriver He could have gotten the money for literally nothing
This leaves out the thing that actually drove him away from mathematics. There was a big controversy over who should get credit for the solution of the millennium problem, and it blew up so big that he wanted to get away from it.
Interesting man.
He didn't want to use his mind to harm other humans. Everything is mathematics and he didn't want his conscience to marred with the burden of guilt.
After achieving greatness, he could do more by inspiring others. The system could also be improve to encourage others to continue with their work.
His story has a certain resonance with the international New Zealand rugby player who during a team tour suddenly went off to the Australian outback where he lived in isolation the majority of the rest of his life.
Keith Murdoch
Nature calling.
A brilliant man, now leave him alone, his contribution serves greater than himself.
Legend.
Clearly, the ego did not shape his values.
Denying his talent and gift to humanity seems somewhat selfish.
Stereotypical genius.
We cannot understand them like their astounding body of work.
🙏 to their genius.
Freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose. I think most sane people, who haven't already given their lives for the status and artifice they own, have at least a couple of moments a week to living like this.
But props for this guy to living life as true as it can be, to live life one moment at a time, and to not be consumed by the obligations and places to be of our lives, just letting his mind be free, it’s a very righteous and beautiful thing to be.
Great guy !
Famed,is not important,but love is❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
His work will probably be useful to physics
Leave the man alone 🤷🏻♂️
Stoic! 🫡
We don't want to admit that someone with such gifts and likely a wonderful soul that has given us, the world, so much knowledge, is also mentally ill. Logically, and mathematically speaking, there is almost no other reason for his behavior. We all know this, and we all lament it. Most of all, I'm sure, the people that love him.
That is what used to be, he now lives in Switzerland
hmm, in fact, he still lives on the outskirts of St. Petersburg in Russia and takes care of his sick mother.
Mom more important than math. ❤❤❤❤
Okay let him share his knowledge to community
I'd hope he has a calm find his happy and some sure could get helped by a good mathematician.
0:42 Why did the 1904 mathematician want to know the shape of the universe?
The modern consumerist mind cannot comprehend this :)
You got most of this wrong or confused. There are a set of millennial prizes for math problems that had not been solved. All have a $1 million dollar purse. Perelman solved one of these and composed many other math theorems of the most difficult nature. He won the Fields medal which comes with about the same prize and turned that down. The Fields is the Nobel Prize times 4. He has always had difficulty in relationships and lived with his mother in Moscow until middle age. If he is homeless it's his choice, he could go to any top university and get a few hundred thousand a year. Just has to ask.
People mostly don't like what they don't understand.
bruh they left the info here. HE COULD HAVE BEEN RICH if his partner was also rewarded. He didn't do it alone bro. THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT MORE BEAUTIFUL
Without even realizing it, he became the wealthiest man of them all.
I don’t think so
@@tristan583 stay slave to that moneybag
He is not homeless. BUT we should treat homeless people better. We dont know, what problem they could help solving next...
Although I greatly respect his decision to refuse the accolades, etc....the mathematician in me is saddened that he abandoned all future endeavors in the discipline.
Imagine just what else he could have contributed in new areas for up & coming fellow peers to delve into....we'll never know.
I liken him to another great Soviet mathematician, Alexander Grothendieck who sadly went the route of self-imposed isolation despite his level of brilliance in the field.
Despite it all, they are both giants in the mathematics pantheon of rare geniuses & worthy of admiration! 🤔
Who tf are the experts?
He rejected cause math let us see the rays of sun! Hail to you, enlightened !
he didn't solve 'the millenium prize'.
there are seven millenium prize problems: each are mathematical problems that are unsolved. in the case that anyone solves one, they are entitled to a prize of 1 million $.
one of those problems is the poincaré conjecture. he solved that one.
there are still 6 problems remaining, if anyone wants to have a go...
Based. He is a true sorcerer. We are just disturbing him.
