About This Item
In English. Hard cover+jacket, 24 cm, X+294 pp., net weight 640 gr. ISBN: 080271532X.
The story of the long-unsolved and beautiful Poincare conjecture: the author explains clearly how the famous Russian mathematician Grigory Perelman finally managed to solve it. A giant of mathematics at the turn of the 20th century, Henri Poincare, transformed the fledging study of topology into an essential scientific field. His famous conjecture of 1904 has profound implications for the true shape of the Universe, and it was considered one of the seven great unsolved conundrums by the Clay Mathematics Institute.
