    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terence_Tao

    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.

  3. Criticism of nonstandard analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_nonstandard...

    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 ...

    [1] [6] Other comments give the story behind the specific notation depicted in the photograph. [ 4 ] The mathematicians included in this work range from schoolteachers and users of mathematics in other academic disciplines, [ 3 ] students and junior faculty, [ 1 ] and prominent research mathematicians including Alain Connes , Terence Tao , [ 3 ...

    The second thread, which was carried out in the comments of Terence Tao's blog, focused on calculating bounds on density of Hales–Jewett numbers and Moser numbers for low dimensions. After seven weeks, Gowers announced on his blog that the problem was "probably solved", [ 7 ] though work would continue on both Gowers's thread and Tao's thread ...

  7. Additive combinatorics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Additive_combinatorics

    Although additive combinatorics is a fairly new branch of combinatorics (in fact the term additive combinatorics was coined by Terence Tao and Van H. Vu in their book in 2012), a much older problem, the Cauchy–Davenport theorem, is one of the most fundamental results in this field.

  8. Parity problem (sieve theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_problem_(sieve_theory)

    Terence Tao gave this "rough" statement of the problem: [1]. Parity problem.If A is a set whose elements are all products of an odd number of primes (or are all products of an even number of primes), then (without injecting additional ingredients), sieve theory is unable to provide non-trivial lower bounds on the size of A.

  9. Arithmetic combinatorics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_combinatorics

    The Green–Tao theorem, proved by Ben Green and Terence Tao in 2004, [3] states that the sequence of prime numbers contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. In other words, there exist arithmetic progressions of primes, with k terms, where k can be any natural number. The proof is an extension of Szemerédi's theorem.
