Andrew Odlyzko: Correspondence about the origins of the Hilbert-Polya Conjecture The Hilbert-Polya Conjecture says that the Riemann Hypothesis is true because non-trivial zeros of the zeta function correspond (in a certain canonical way) to the eigenvalues of some positive operator. This conjecture is often regarded as the most promising way to prove the Riemann Hypothesis. Very little is known about its origins. Mathematical folk wisdom has usually attributed its formulation to Hilbert and Polya, independently, some time in the 1910s. However, there appears to be no published mention of it before Hugh Montgomery's 1973 paper on the pair correlation of zeros of the zeta function. Enclosed here are copies of some letters that attempted to trace the history of the Hilbert-Polya Conjecture. The first letter from Polya appears to present the only documented evidence about the origins of the conjecture. Correspondence with George Polya: The two letters by Polya (1887-1985) were written when he was 94. According to N. G. de Bruijn, at that stage in his life, Polya usually dictated letters to his wife, and only signed them himself. The fact that he wrote both letters out in his own handwriting suggests he was very interested in the subject. The account of the formulation of the conjecture in the first letter is consistent with what Polya had told Dennis Hejhal in a personal conversation. Andrew Odlyzko to George Polya, December 8, 1981

About the Mathematical and Computer Sciences Library Collections The Undergraduate Collection The Undergraduate Collection was a collection of classical mathematics books covering the history of mathematics, assembled by Professor Halsey L. Royden and Rebecca Lasher Wesley in the late 1980's. Professor Donald E. Knuth recommended additional books in the mathematical and computer sciences. At the time, Prof. Royden felt that all students of mathematics should become familiar with these works before they left Stanford.

He wrote three books on the subject: How to Solve It Mathematics of Plausible Reasoning Volume I: Induction and Analogy in Mathematics , and Mathematics of Plausible Reasoning Volume II: Patterns of Plausible Reasoning In How to Solve It , P³lya provides general heuristics for solving problems of all kinds, not simply mathematical ones. The book includes advice for teaching students mathematics and a mini-encyclopedia of heuristic terms. It was translated into several languages and has sold over a million copies.

The Polya Mathematics Center at the University of Idaho has been named in honor or George Polya. George Pólya A Short Biography George Pólya was born in Budapest on December 13, 1887. Young Pólya was not particularly interested in mathematics. He attended the Markó Street Gymnasium in Budapest. Some of the outstanding teachers he remembered at this school were his Latin, Hungarian, and geography teachers. Out of the three mathematics teachers he had at the Gymnasium, Pólya remembered “two were despicable and one was good.” This may explain the fact that Pólya was not yet interested in pursuing a career in mathematics. In 1905, Pólya entered the University of Budapest. Upon the insistence of his mother, Pólya spent his first semester in law school, a subject he found terribly boring. Through his readings of Darwin ( The Descent of Man ) he became interested in biology, but his brother insisted that “there is no money in biology”; so Pólya dropped the idea and turned to languages and literature. He received a Latin and Hungarian teaching certificate that he never used. At this point Pólya turned to philosophy. Professor Alexander, his philosophy professor, advised him to take courses in physics and mathematics as part of his studies in philosophy. This decision led him to embark on a career in mathematics because “I thought I am not good enough for physics and too good for philosophy. Mathematics is in between.”

He based all of his geometrical theorems on just five postulates, making the work very rigorous and complete, but for two millenia mathematicians wondered if the fifth postulate (the so-called "Parallel Postulate") could in fact be derived from the other four.

54. Polya's Remarks george polya described the experience of problem solving in his book, How to Solve It, p. v. A great discovery solves a great problem but there is a grain http://www.drkhamsi.com/classe/polya.html

The Four-step Problem-solving Process George Polya described the experience of problem solving in his book, How to Solve It , p. v: A great discovery solves a great problem but there is a grain of discovery in the solution of any problem. Your problem may be modest; but if it challenges your curiosity and brings into play your inventive facilities, and if you solve it by your own means, you may experience the tension and enjoy the triumph of discovery. As part of his work on problem solving, Polya developed a four-step problem-solving process similar to the following: Understanding the Problem Can you state the problem in your own words? What are you trying to find or do? What are the unknowns? What information do you obtain from the problem? What information, if any, is missing or not needed? Devising a Plan The following list of strategies, although not exhaustive, is very useful: Look for a pattern. Examine related problems and determine if the same technique can be applied. Examine a simpler or special case of the problem to gain insight into the solution of the original problem. Make a table.
