Unsolved Problems in Calculus

[@rtg_onefourtwoeightfiveseven]

The fact that you put the most important open problem in mathematics second in the video (as opposed to first or last) just tickles me for some reason.

[@caspermadlener4191]

The first and fourth problems are generally understood as problems in algebra, not analysis. The derivative is here just the linear operator sending xⁿ to nxⁿ⁻¹, for n non-negative integers. Someone under this comment made the valid point that these problems are still very likely to be solved using analysis. Most algebraic problems have the nice property of being true in "general" (char 0) if and only if they are true over the complex numbers.

[@mm18382]

Was just about to say that. As much as I enjoy the author's videos, confusing calculus with algebra reveals a poor understanding of maths Especially given that the author mentions himself the generalization of Casas-Alvero to fields of char 0. Which is clearly not calculus-related

[@jamesphillipturpin1452]

​@mm18382 From what I gather (I could be misinformed) even generalizing to complex numbers makes it unsolved. So there is an unsolved complex analysis problem, even if that is not the most general case of the unsolved conjecture.

[@tepsoram]

It seems that the conjecture is false in fields of prime characteristic and moreover, if it is true over the field of complex numbers, then it is true for all fields of characteristic zero. (See EMS Newsletter of June, 2011, available online). These are apparently the main reasons for regarding it as a problem most likely to be resolved by analytic rather than algebraic methods.

@@tepsoram Completely valid point, I had to change my comment.

[@caspermadlener4191]

@@mm18382 Actually, the case over the complex numbers turn out to be equivalent to the general case, so analysis can still be used!

There are more unsolved problems than the ones presented here, the is one sitting on my desk and you didnt talk about it.

[@na1edawg]

It's good to know that there are only 4 unsolved problems in calculus. Also surprised to see how much of calculus doesn't involve any calculus.

[@lepidoptera9337]

Yes, this was the worst math video that I have seen in a long time. It should be deleted.

[@dewah7775]

Yep, I thought he might have confused calculus for mathematical analysis, but the first problem seems more like number theory. Lol it's like one of my English professors who said my math professor "really bragged about me in calculus"(it was a linear algebra class).

Is "ODE" really pronounced ode? I've only heard O-D-E (like P-D-E).

[@lepidoptera9337]

@@glebdrozdov3204 No, it isn't. Calculus allows for smooth deformations of functions. A deformation of a polynomial is not a polynomial. The first problem is more likely an algebra or number theory problem. It is definitely not something one can solve with methods from calculus.

[@richardtrager7125]

The Navior-Stokes Equations are literally differential equations

[@lepidoptera9337]

@@richardtrager7125 Yes, and you need methods from functional analysis to get anywhere close to the solution of Navier-Stokes related problems. At least historically calculus and functional analysis are NOT the same field. The AI (or the stupid kid who wrote this video) doesn't know the first thing about mathematics.

hey guys does anyone know what the weird * thing is doing between m and n? i heard it stands for multiplication but idk

[@0_Matthiasss_0]

It does indeed stand for multiplication, but it's not usually used when calculating on paper. You can see it more often in programming, or in Excel

[@lepidoptera9337]

I have no idea why the Casas-Alvero conjecture is supposed to be a problem of calculus. Calculus requires that we can modify functions smoothly in a neighborhood of any point. Such a modification leaves the space of polynomial functions and thus invalidates the assumptions of the conjecture that f is a polynomial function. In other words, the polynomial functions are not covering the space of all functions. Not even remotely close.

[@whatitmeans]

I didn't understand the first one... If I make the following smooth bump function f(x)={0, |x|>=1; e^{x^2/(x^2-1)}, |x|

[@gaetanl5590]

The point is that f is supposed to be a polynomial :)

@SanAleksiusII I've got my work posted on my channel. It's got something to do with the Square Root of 2 in relation to how Unary works. It's the only possible reason why -1 plugged in for s shows -1/12. The one I definitely solved is Prime Number Distribution which has to do with incremental increases and compounding. Super easy and I've proven it out to 1000 places, it functions because Gauss's Eureka Theorem is proved true.

Bruh, take your meds. But if you are interested, there are formulas for calculating primes, although very tedious. All that being said you didn't prove anything at all in your videos. You just sort of ramble and look at specific cases, a very tedious and actually impossible process to prove something(literally about something that's infinite lol).
