So let's establish another medal in psychology for a person who could understand Perelman's decision to regect 10^6 $.

[tywebbOOOOO]

actually, the clay mathematical institute awarded him the $1,000,000 prize on march 18, 2010.

it is not yet known if he has accepted it.

He uploaded it to arxiv in 2002 and 2003

Perelman is Jewish,,not Russian,,Its hypocrisy to deny Jewish ancestry if Jewish person did something nice

@anukaTV2 ,,yes, If Rotschild born in Germany - Rotschild IS GERMAN

@Etrajbe if one cannot explain his work (especially when it doesn't have any practical application) it means this is just a delirium. Period.

[Etrajbe]

@fialkool Easy: he means 1. That the jury is not capable of understanding his work, and that math/physics and the very UNDERSTANDING of the universe should be so much more than some prizes, and that the joy he felt by solving this and realizing something NO ONE else ever did or ever will, is bigger than all the money in the world. he also felt that other mathematicians deserved it as much as him.

@pitagora11

Grigori Perelman does have a great stand in history books whether he wanted that or not.
