Million dollars for reclusive Russian genius

A reclusive Russian mathematician has been awarded a million dollars for proving a theory which has baffled some of the finest brains for a century. Grigory Perelman came up with the Poincare conjecture which helps in the understanding of three-dimensional shapes. It is one of seven so-called Millennium Problems set out by the Massachusetts-based Clay Mathematics Institute which offered a prize for the solution of any of them. But Perelman who lives in St. Petersburg has little contact with the outside world and is known for ignoring plaudits for his work. He actually first put forward his theory eight years ago, and in 2006 he received mathematics' most prestigious prize, The Fields medal, which he refused to collect. We are now joined live by Sir John Ball. He's the former president of the International Mathematical Union and knows the genius personally.

HE'S A 100 PERCENT JEW.....

[annaktivist]

Nothing but hypocrisy from anti-Semites, as usual..

Born in Russia Jewish mathematician who has notice in his soviet ID that he is JEWISH ,who’s parents were and are registered by Soviet authorities as JEWS is suddenly ‘Russian’

But all the evil WHITE supremacists (NonJews) have done to humanity- t ex African slave trade, usury, banks, communism etc they blame on the Jews – as usual..

Thousands of hateful lying antijewish videos are good proof of that

[alienkishorekumar]

Let him be a Jew or whatever..i don't care..I respect the man for what he has done! *RESPECTS FROM INDIA..THE BIRTH PLACE OF 0 AND RAMANUJAN*

[saceriii]

ah John Ball, I LOVE U



[leomeltercero]

He told me he had a grim vision of the future wc is why he declined association with Math anymore.

[copekarit]

No he is 1/2 Bulgarian +1/2 Lilliputian ore may be he is just human and a mathematical that done a great job and on youtube there are so many idiots

[ChaddlePaddle]

He is a Russian Jew, just as I am a half Greek and half Russian Jew, you can be both, one is nationality while the other is religion, I don't understand this debate in the comments.

‘’Russian genius’’?..

Hes not Russian but Jewish born in Russia..

Its hypocrisy – when something shameful, always mentioning that he’s a jew,as for ex. lenin –who actually was born in baptized Christian family .,or Trotsky etc..

But when something great and wonderful you deny person’s Jewish heritage, then he become ‘Russian’….

When you stop infesting YT with millions hateVideos on ‘’jewish bolshevism’’ – THEN we stop mentioning Perelman’s Jewish heritage

[annaktivist]

@ms2Anita ,,agree !.Jews become ''Russian'' when it suits antisemites...Stalin and Beria were 100% Georgians born in Christian families,,but antisemites calling them 'jews'  because evil antijewish racist wish every evil person be 'jewish'...Antijewish hypocrisy knows no end.!!

[annaktivist]

@Hatinonthehaters ,Nothing but hypocrisy !!,,Trotscky was born and raised in Russia, got Russian education therefore he is Russian,,But You call him 'Jewish' ,,You hypocrite..

Lenin (real name Ulyanov - which is typical RUSSIAN name) was born in CHRISTIAN russian family), was an atheist, raised and educated in Russia - but you hypocritically call him ''Jewish'' since u dislike him..

Rotschild was born, raised and educated in Germany therefore ROTSCHIL IS GERMAN
