    • The ternary Goldbach problem 

      [SNAP-2014-003-EN] Helfgott, Harald (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014)
      Leonhard Euler (1707–1783) – one of the greatest mathematicians of the eighteenth century and of all times – often corresponded with a friend of his, Christian Goldbach (1690–1764), an amateur and polymath who lived and ...

    • Das ternäre Goldbach-Problem 

      [SNAP-2014-003-DE] Helfgott, Harald (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020)
      Leonhard Euler (1707–1783) war einer der besten Mathematiker des 18. Jahrhunderts und wohl auch aller Zeiten. Er korrespondierte oft mit seinem Freund, Christoph Goldbach (1690–1764), einem Universalgelehrten, der auch ...

    • Touching the transcendentals: tractional motion from the bir th of calculus to future perspectives 

      [SNAP-2019-013-EN] Milici, Pietro (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-21)
      When the rigorous foundation of calculus was developed, it marked an epochal change in the approach of mathematicians to geometry. Tools from geometry had been one of the foundations of mathematics until the 17th century ...

    • Ultrafilter methods in combinatorics 

      [SNAP-2021-006-EN] Goldbring, Isaac (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2021-06-25)
      Given a set X, ultrafilters determine which subsets of X should be considered as large. We illustrate the use of ultrafilter methods in combinatorics by discussing two cornerstone results in Ramsey theory, namely ...

    • What does ">" really mean? 

      [SNAP-2014-004-EN] Reznick, Bruce (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014)
      This Snapshot is about the generalization of ">" from ordinary numbers to so-called fields. At the end, I will touch on some ideas in recent research.

    • Zero-dimensional symmetry 

      [SNAP-2015-003-EN] Willis, George (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2015)
      This snapshot is about zero-dimensional symmetry. Thanks to recent discoveries we now understand such symmetry better than previously imagined possible. While still far from complete, a picture of zero-dimensional symmetry ...

    • Zopfgruppen, die Yang–Baxter-Gleichung und Unterfaktoren 

      [SNAP-2021-005-DE] Lechner, Gandalf (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2021-06-24)
      Die Yang–Baxter-Gleichung ist eine faszinierende Gleichung, die in vielen Gebieten der Physik und der Mathematik auftritt und die am besten diagrammatisch dargestellt wird. Dieser Snapshot schlägt einen weiten Bogen ...
