I attended the ANTS VI conference recently; I didn't give a talk there, but I did present a poster on my research.

I want to talk a little bit about poster sessions here, to recommend them as a useful addition to the talks at a conference.

Louis De Branges proves the Riemann Hypothesis ... again Research

This seems to be the time of year for attempted solutions to very hard problems.

Unfortunately, Arenstorf has withdrawn his paper which claimed to prove the Twin Prime conjecture, but the BBC is reporting that Louis De Branges has claimed to have proved the Riemann hypothesis.

Twin Prime Conjecture Proven? Research

By kroth
Posted Sat May 29, 2004 at 01:10:42 PM PDT
There is an article on slashdot discussing a preprint of a paper by R. F. Arenstorf proving the twin primes conjecture.
Read about it here.
The discussion that follows also has some amusing points, but not a whole lot of math.

Of course you could also skip the article and just look at the preprint on arxiv here.

Update [2004-6-10 13:39:44 by overconvergent]: The preprint has been withdrawn from the arXiv; because:

A serious error has been found in the paper, specifically, Lemma 8 is incorrect.

The Impact of Mathematical Journals Research

By overconvergent
Posted Thu Apr 08, 2004 at 07:07:41 PM PDT
Everyone who writes mathematical papers wonders about how important their work is; how many people read it, and how many of those readers will use it. There are several ways to measure this, and in this note we will mention some of them.

From TOMORROW'S PROFESSOR(SM) LISTSERV, posted with permission.

The posting below looks at quite thorough look at the journal publishing process. It is from Chapter 9, Publishing Your Research in Authoring a PhD: How to plan, draft, write, and finish a doctoral thesis or dissertation, by Patrick Dunleavy. Palgrave Macmillan

Mathematics Newsgroups Research

If you have a mathematical question that no-one you know can answer, it can be very frustrating. You may not know where to turn.

One possible source of help is Usenet, and the newsgroups sci.math and sci.math.research.

We give some information, advice and warnings about mathematics newsgroups.
