Tao was born to Chinese immigrant parents and raised in Adelaide. Tao won the Fields Medal in 2006 and won the Royal Medal and Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics in 2014, and is a 2006 MacArthur Fellow. Tao has been the author or co-author of over three hundred research papers, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest living mathematicians.
Terence Tao summed up the advantage of the hyperreal framework by noting that it allows one to rigorously manipulate things such as "the set of all small numbers", or to rigorously say things like "η 1 is smaller than anything that involves η 0 ", while greatly reducing epsilon management issues by automatically concealing many of the ...
In 2016, Terence Tao published a paper titled "Finite time blowup for an averaged three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equation", in which he formalizes the idea of a "supercriticality barrier" for the global regularity problem for the true Navier–Stokes equations, and claims that his method of proof hints at a possible route to establishing ...

In number theory, the Green–Tao theorem, proved by Ben Green and Terence Tao in 2004, states that the sequence of prime numbers contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. In other words, for every natural number k {\displaystyle k} , there exist arithmetic progressions of primes with k {\displaystyle k} terms.
The first edition of The Norton Anthology of English Literature, printed in 1962, comprised two volumes.Also printed in 1962 was a single-volume derivative edition, called The Norton Anthology of English Literature: Major Authors Edition, which contained reprintings with some additions and changes including 28 of the major authors appearing in the original edition.
The sociologist Morris Friedell defined common knowledge in a 1969 paper. [2] It was first given a mathematical formulation in a set-theoretical framework by Robert Aumann (1976). Computer scientists grew an interest in the subject of epistemic logic in general – and of common knowledge in particular – starting in the 1980s. [1]
