Hilbert's Tenth Problem: a History of Mathematical Discovery (Diophantus, Fermat, Hilbert, Julia Robinson, Nikolay Vorob'ev, Yuri Matiyasevich) About Hilbert's address and his 23 mathematical problems In the summer of 1900 mathematicians met on the Second International Congress in Paris. David Hilbert (1862-1943), the famous German mathematician, Professor of the Goettingen University, was invited to deliver one of the main lectures. As the greatest World mathematician he became famous by his works in algebra and number theory, and shortly before the Congress resolutely, he has rebuilt an axiomatics of the Euclidean geometry in the fundamental work "Foundations of Geometry" (1899). After long doubts Hilbert chose an unusual form of the lecture. In the speech "Mathematical Problems" he decided to formulate those mathematical problems, which, in his opinion, should determine development of mathematics in the upcoming century. Hilbert's address of 1900 to the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris is perhaps the most influential speech ever given to mathematicians, given by a mathematician, or given about mathematics. In it, Hilbert outlined 23 major mathematical problems to be studied in the coming century. Some are broad, such as the axiomatization of physics (problem 6) and might never be considered completed. Others, such as problem 3, were much more specific and solved quickly. Some were resolved contrary to Hilbert's expectations, as the continuum hypothesis (problem 1).

Editorial Staff quick search Search Physics World Physics World April 2001 Solving the puzzle of Hilbert's problems Review: April 2001 The Hilbert Challenge Jeremy Gray A more detailed review by Robert Lambourne of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the Open University, UK, appears in the April issue of Physics World "A branch of science is full of life as long as it offers an abundance of problems; a lack of problems is a sign of death." So said David Hilbert, the renowned "problem man" of 20th-century mathematics. Hilbert's name will be familiar to most physicists through the use of Hilbert spaces in the state-vector formulation of quantum mechanics. Some will have encountered the textbook Methods of Mathematical Physics by Courant and Hilbert, and many will have heard of the 23 key problems posed by Hilbert at the 1900 International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris. It is these problems that constitute the challenge referred to in the title of this latest book by the mathematics historian Jeremy Gray. The author has made a determined effort to chart a clear course and to ensure that the book is as widely accessible as the modernity and complexity of its subject matter will allow. There is a good index, a useful appendix that summarizes the current status of each of the problems, and a short glossary that provides informal but clear definitions of such crucial items as axioms, groups and sets.

Peters, 2002, 486 pp. The volume begins with a profile of David Hubert and a detailed account of the center of mathematics in 1900, University of G¶ttingen in Germany. The book then moves on to the presentation of the problems and their solvers. The foundational problems involving set theory, with great work performed by Georg Cantor, Paul Cohen, Julia Robinson, and Kurt G¶del, are described and chronicled. Yandell continues with well-documented descriptions of groups of problems in various categories including geometry, algebra, mechanics, number theory, and analysis. Some of the major contributors mentioned are Max Dehn, Herbert Busemann, Andrew Gleason, Alexander Gelfond, Teiji Takagi, Emil Artin, Vladimir Arnold, Masayoshi Nagata, Jules Henri Poincar©, and Andrei Kolmogorov. Yandell includes these mathematicians and many others in his Yandell's Honors Class, and he provides us with details of their work and summaries of their lives.

Called Hilbert's problem 16, it has confounded workers for over a century. But in just a few hours of inspiration, Oxenhielm saw the light. Her solution is to be published in a maths journal. Her research into so-called planar polynomial vector fields may have practical applications for computer simulations in science and economics. Passion for maths "I solved it before I knew its significance," Elin Oxenhielm told BBC News Online. "It took a few months of thinking about it at first, but then the solution came remarkably quickly," she says. Her breakthrough comes a century after the problem was posed by Prussian mathematician David Hilbert. In 1900 he gave a lecture in Paris where he laid down the 23 greatest problems for maths in the 20th Century.

search: SIAM News, Volume 35, June 2002 Twenty-three Hard Ones Book Review Philip J. Davis The Honors Class: Hilbert's Problems and Their Solvers Benjamin H. Yandell, AK Peters, Natick, Massachusetts, 2002, 486 pages The turn of a century has proved to be a particularly good time to consider the past and to conjecture about the future. The world of mathematics knows that in 1900, in a lecture delivered at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris, David Hilbert proposed 23 mathematical problems of major interest and of major difficulty. Hilbert was not the only mathematician of the first rank who had a personal vision of where mathematics ought to go. Henri Poincaré, delayed by illness, put forth his own suggestions for future research at the 1908 Congress in Rome. Poincaré's suggestions were presented in a less specific fashion than Hilbert's, and as a group they are perhaps somewhat less known to the mathematician-on-the-street. At the turn of the millennium in 2000, a number of books containing far more than 23 "problems for the future" were published. Two of these books, Mathematics Unlimited-2001 and Beyond and Mathematics: Frontiers and Perspectives , have been reviewed in these pages.

Note: This is a paper which I prepared for a class in number theory. I have left the footnotes out in this version since they are too difficult to reproduce on the web. Most of the quotes in this paper are from the 1975 AMS report on the 23 Hilbert Problems and Ian Stewart's book. See the bibliography for a list of everyone quoted. Most of the mathematical notation and accent marks are lost in HTML. Problems nineteen through twenty-three are only described briefly since I got writer's cramp after the sphere-packing problem. III. The Paris Problems Hilbert's second problem is to prove the compatibility of the axioms of arithmetic. That is, "that a finite number of logical steps based upon them can never lead to contradictory results." As mentioned earlier, David Hilbert developed a theory of proofs called Hilbert's Program to try to solve this problem. As mentioned earlier, Kurt Godel's work on logic all but demolished Hilbert's Program. G. Kreisel argues that Hilbert's Program is valid in most branches of mathematics and elementary logic. However, he contends that Hilbert's Program fails for arithmetic and metamathematics and, hence, Hilbert's second problem remains unsolved. Mathematicians, such as Detlefsen, still debate the validity of Hilbert's Program, Godel's theorems, and the compatibility of the arithmetic axioms. Despite its undecided state, Hilbert's Second Problem has provoked great changes in the theories of logic. Hodge Conjecture can be viewed as an offshoot of Hilbert's Third Problem.

For more information, send e-mail to permissions@pupress.princeton.edu This file is also available in Adobe Acrobat PDF format Introduction The world described by the natural and the physical sciences is a concrete and perceptible one: in the first approximation through the senses, and in the second approximation through their various extensions provided by technology. The world described by mathematics is instead an abstract world, made up of ideas that can only be perceived through the mind's eyes. With time and practice, abstract concepts such as numbers and points have nevertheless acquired enough objectivity to allow even an ordinary person to picture them in an essentially concrete way, as though they belonged to a world of objects as concrete as those of the physical world. Modern science has nonetheless undermined the naive vision of the external world. Scientific research has extended its reach to the vastness of the cosmos as well as to the infinitesimally small domain of the particles, making a direct sensorial perception of galaxies and atoms impossibleor possible only indirectly, through technological meansand thus reducing them in effect to mathematical representations. Likewise, modern mathematics has also extended its domain of inquiry to the rarefied abstractions of structures and the meticulous analysis of the foundations, freeing itself completely from any possible visualization.
